Mathematics

Multiply the cost per yard by the number of yards bought.

Change 3 1/2 to an improper fraction:

3 1/2 = 7/2

Now you have 7/2 x 5/8

Multiply the top numbers together and then the bottom numbers together:

(7 x 5) / (2 x 8) = 35/16

Now rewrite the improper fraction as a proper fraction:

2 3/16 which would be $2.19

What would the equation be ?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

y = 4/5x-18/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the slope from the given points (-3,-6) (2,-2)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-2 - -6)/(2 - -3)

   (-2+6)/( 2+3)

  4/5

The slope intercept form of an equation is

y = mx +b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 4/5 x +b

Substitute a point into the equation to find b

-6= 4/5(-3) +b

-6= -12/5 +b

Add 12/5 to each side

-6 +12/5 = -12/5 +12/5 +b

Get a common denominator

-30/5 + 12/5 = b

-18/5 =b

The equation is

y = 4/5x-18/5

Ghella [55]
Your answer would be 518 Cubic inches.

18.5 * 7 = 129.5
129.5 * 8 = 1036 (Full planter aka not what we want)
If we take the height and divide it be 2 then we would get 4in (halfway full)
 So 129.5 * 4 = 518 Cu.

I hope I helped!
