Answer:

$56.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box = 4 * 4 * 1/2 = 8 cu ft.

So the weight of sand required = 100* 8 = 800 lbs.

Therefore he requires 800 / 50 = 16 bags of sand.

The  cost will be 16 * 3.50

= $56

2/3 of the sum of three times a number and six is 10. what is the number?
mestny [16]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number. The problem statement tells you ...

2/3(3x +6) = 10

  2x +4 = 10 . . . . . . use the distributive property

  x +2 = 5 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 3

The number is 3.

__

<em>Comment on the solution</em>

The above shows an "alternative" solution method. The more usual way this might be done is ...

  2(3x +6) = 30 . . . . . multiply by 3 to clear fractions

  6x +12 = 30 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  6x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12

  x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6
