One cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet because one yard is equal to 3 feet

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, there 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard

Yard and feet are units of distance

1 Yard (yd) is equal to 3 feet (ft). To convert yards to feet, multiply the yard value by 3.

<em><u>The conversion factor for 1 yard to 1 feet is given as:</u></em>

1 \text{ yard } = 3 \text{ foot }

Now find for 1 cubic yard . Cubic yard means yard raised to power 3

Therefore,

1\ yard^3 = (3)^3\ feet^3\\\\1\ yard^3 = 27 feet^3\\\\1\ cubic\ yard = 27\ cubic\ feet

Thus one cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet

Therefore, there are 27 cubic feet in one cubic feet

Fourteen hours after a convict escapes from prison, a guard begins to pursue him. If the convict travels at eight mph on foot an
algol13

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  128 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The convict has a head start of ...

  distance = speed × time

  distance = (8 mi/h) × (14 h) = 112 mi

That distance is being closed at a rate that is the difference between the speeds, so ...

  64 mi/h -8 mi/h = 56 mi/h

The time it takes the guards to catch the convict will be ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = (112 mi)/(56 mi/h) = 2 h

The guards and prisoner will be at a distance from the prison of ...

  distance = speed × time

  distance = (64 mi/h)(2 h) = 128 mi

The convict will be caught 128 miles from the prison.

__

<em>Check</em>

The convict will run an additional (8 mi/h)(2 h) = 16 mi after the guards start pursuit. That, in addition to the 112 miles already run, will total 112+16=128 miles, the same distance the guards travel in that 2 hours.
