Answer:

111 pieces of soda

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the rectangular backyard

The area of the rectangular backyard is equal to

A=LW

where

L=18\frac{5}{6}\ yd=\frac{18*6+5}{6}=\frac{113}{6}\ yd

W=10\frac{2}{5}\ yd=\frac{10*5+2}{5}=\frac{52}{5}\ yd

substitute

A=(\frac{113}{6})(\frac{52}{5})

A=\frac{5,876}{30}\ yd^2

step 2

Find the area of one piece of sod

The area of the rectangular piece of sod is

A=LW

where

L=1\frac{1}{3}\ yd=\frac{1*3+1}{3}=\frac{4}{3}\ yd

W=1\frac{1}{3}\ yd=\frac{1*3+1}{3}=\frac{4}{3}\ yd

substitute

A=(\frac{4}{3})^2\\\\A=\frac{16}{9}\ yd^2

step 3

Find the pieces of sod needed

To find out how many whole pieces of sod will Jim need to buy to cover his backyard, divide the area of the backyard by the area of one piece of soda

so

\frac{5,876}{30} : \frac{16}{9}=\frac{52,884}{480}=110.175

Round up

111 pieces of soda

luda_lava [24]
8 pounds * 16 ounces/pound * 1 steak/4 ounces = 32 steaks
8 * 16 * 1/4 = 32

8 pounds * $4.50/pound = $36.00
8 * 4.5 = 36

$ / steak:
$36.00 / 32 steaks = $1.125/steak

$6000 invested at an APR a 4.4% for 20 years what is the balance in the account after 20 years
butalik [34]

Answer:

The balance in the account after 20 years will be $11280.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

E = P*I*t

In which E are the earnings, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

After t years, the total amount of money is:

T = E + P.

In this problem

We want to find T, when P = 6000, I = 0.044, t = 20

The first step is find the earnings due to interest. So

E = P*I*t = 6000*0.044*20 = 5280

Adding to the principal to find the balance

T = E + P = 5280 + 6000 = 11280

The balance in the account after 20 years will be $11280.
