Answer:

4:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that 12 inches =1 foot

Therefore 4 feet = 12*4=48 inches

\frac{4ft}{60 \: inch}  =  \frac{48 \: inches}{60 \: inches}  =  \frac{4 \times 12}{5 \times 12}  =  \frac{4}{5}

The ratio of 4 feet to 60 inches is 4:5

This ratio is in the reduced form, we cannot simplify further.

A store is having a sale on jelly beans and trail mix. For 3 pounds of jelly beans and 2 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is
Nata [24]

the cost for each of jelly beans and each pound of trail mix is $2.5 and $1.75

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given A store is having a sale on jelly beans and trail mix. For 3 pounds of jelly beans and 2 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is $11. For 5 pounds of jelly beans and 6 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is $23 . We have to find the cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly beans.

Let the cost of each pound of trail mix is $y.

and  the cost of each pound of jelly beans is $x.

According to question,

For   3 pounds of jelly beans and 2 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is $11.

⇒ 3x+2y=11  →  (1)

For 5 pounds of jelly beans and 6 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is $23

⇒ 5x+6y=23 →  (2)

Solving (1) and (2), we get

3(1 equation)-(2 equation)=0

⇒3(3x+2y)-5x-6y=3(11)-23

⇒9x+6y-5x-6y=10

hence,

⇒4x=10

⇒x=2.5

Putting x=2.5 in  3x+2y=11  we get ;

⇒  3x+2y=11

⇒  3(2.5)+2y=11

⇒  2y=11-7.5=3.5

⇒  y=1.75

Hence, the cost for each of jelly beans and each pound of trail mix is $2.5 and $1.75 .

Mars2501 [29]

This question is incomplete

Complete Question

Consider greenhouse A with floor dimensions w = 16 feet , l = 18 feet.

A concrete slab 4 inches deep will be poured for the floor of greenhouse A. How many cubic feet of concrete are needed for the floor?

Answer:

96 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the floor of the green house = Length × Width × Height

We convert the dimensions in feet to inches

1 foot = 12 inches

For width

1 foot = 12 inches

16 feet = x

Cross Multiply

x = 16 × 12 inches

x = 192 inches

For length

1 foot = 12 inches

18 feet = x

Cross Multiply

x = 18 × 12 inches

x = 216 inches

The height or depth = 4 inches deep

Hence,

Volume = 192 inches × 216 inches × 4 inches

= 165888 cubic inches

From cubic inches to cubic feet

1 cubic inches = 0.000578704 cubic foot

165888 cubic inches = x

Cross Multiply

x = 16588 × 0.000578704 cubic foot

x = 96 cubic feet

Therefore, 96 cubic feet of concrete is needed for the floor
