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

(-x+3)-(x-5)=2x+8 how
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

(-x+3)-(x-5)=2x+8

(-x+3)+(-x+5)=2x+8

-x+3-x+5=2x-8

-2x+8=2x-8

-2x-2x=-8-8

-4x=-16

x=-16/-4

x=4

Simplify sin^2y/sec^2 y−1 to a single trigonometric function
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

\frac{ { \sin}^{2} y}{ { \sec}^{2}y - 1 }  =  { \cos }^{2} y

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that { \tan }^{2} y =  { \sec }^{2} y - 1

Also , { \tan}^{2} y =   \frac{ { \sin }^{2} y}{ { \cos }^{2}y }

So ,

\frac{ { \sin }^{2}y }{ { \sec }^{2}y - 1 }  =  \frac{ { \sin}^{2} y}{ { \tan }^{2} y}  =  \frac{ { \sin }^{2}y }{ \frac{ { \sin}^{2} y}{ { \cos}^{2}y } }  =  { \cos }^{2} y
