You need to find how much a pound of lawn seed covers. Once you fine that divide it by 8400 square feet and you'll get your answer.
Answer:
B.28, 4 + (6*4) = 24 + 4 = 28
You can divide the figure as follows:
- A vertical rectangle, 5 meters tall and 2 meters wide, on the top right.
- A horizontal rectangle, 2 meters tall and 5 meters wide, on the bottom left
- A 2x2 meters square on the bottom right, where the two rectangles meet.
The area of the rectangles is 5x2=10 meters squared, while the area of the square is 2x2=4 meters squared.
So, the total area is 10+4=14 meters squared.
Plan A costs a total of $95 since it says $95 for unlimited talk and text.
Plan B:
(.10 x 800) + (.05 x 1000)
The (.10 x 800) represents 10 cents per talk minute for 800 minutes.
The (.05 x 1000) represents 5 cents per text message for 1000 text messages.
Solve:
.10 x 800 = 80
.05 x 1000 = 50
80 + 50 = 130
This means Plan B will cost him $130 under these conditions.
Plan C:
20 + ((.05 x 800)+(.05 x 1000))
The 20 + represents a flat rate of $20 per month.
The (.05 x 800) represents 5 cents per call minute.
The (.05 x 1000) represents 5 cents per text.
Solve:
.05 x 800 = 40
.05 x 1000 = 50
20 + 40 + 50 = 110
This means Plan C will cost him $110 under these conditions.
Plan D:
45 + (.10(800 - 500))
The 45 + represents a flat monthly rate of $45.
The (800 - 500) represents how many minutes he has to pay for with the 500 free.
The .10 is the cost per extra minute.
Solve:
800 - 500 = 300
.10 x 300 = 30
45 + 30 = 75
This means Plan D will cost him $75 under these conditions.
In short:
Plan A- $95
Plan B- $130
Plan C- $110
Plan D- $75
The least expensive among these is Plan D, which only costs $75 per month.
