If you begin with 1.5 yd^3 of topsoil and want the topsoil to be only 4 inches deep, then the area of the garden can be found as follows:

Convert 4 in to yards:    4 in       1 yd
                                     ------- * ----------- =  (1/9) yd
                                         1        36 in

The dimensions of the garden are x (width) by 2x (length) by (1/9) yd (depth).  The volume of topsoil would be 2x^2/9 = 1.5 yd^3.

Solving for x:   (2/9)x^2 = 1.5 yd^3, or   x^2 = (1.5 yd^3) (9/2)

Then:    x = sqrt(6.75 yd^3) = 2.6 yd    and    2x = 5.2 yd

Check:  Does (2.6 yd)(5.2 yd)(1/9) = 1.5 cu yd?  YES

Thus, the max size of the garden would be 2.6 yd wide, 5.2 yd long, and 4 inches (or 1/9 foot) deep.

The area of a rectangle is 52 in^2. If the length is 9 inches more than the width, find the
Bingel [31]

Answer:

width=4in.

length=13in

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width of the rectangle be x

then the length will be x+9

Area= length×width

52= (x+9)x

52= x²+9x

x²+9x-52=0

x²+13x-4x-52=0

x(x+13) - 4(x+13)= 0

(x-4)(x+13)=0

x=4 or -13

dimension cannot be negative

hence x=4in

the width is 4in. and the length is 4+9=13in.

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

The speed and time are directly proportional in that the higher the speed the lesser the time and vice versa.

The constant is the total distance which is 180 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

The distance between the  two cities is 180km

1.The distance was covered by a car at the rate of 50km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/50

time= 3.6 hours

2.The distance was covered by a bus 45km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/45

time= 4 hours

3.The distance was covered by a bicycle at 25km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/25

time= 7.2 hours
