The answer is 139 cubic yards

This mulch will be of cylindrical shape.
The volume (V) of a cylinder is: 
V = l · w · h           (l - length, w - width, h - height (in our example, height = depth)

It is known:
l = 125 feet
w = 60 feet
h = 6 inches = 0.5 feet

V = l · w · h = 125 · 60 · 0.5 = 3750 feet³

Since 1 cubic foot is 0.037 cubic yards, 3750 cubic feet are 139 cubic yards:
0.037 ·  3750 feet³ = 138.75 cubic yards ≈ 139 cubic yards

A 20 ft ladder leans against a wall. The base of the ladder is 5 ft from wall. How high up the wall does the top of the ladder r
Archy [21]
Let h = height
h square = 20 square + 5 square
h square = 400+ 25
So you square root both sides
h = root 425
h = 20.6155281
