Answer: 10 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must calculate the field area. Assuming it is a rectangle then its area equals the product of its length times its width

A =360*160\\\\A = 57600 ft^2

You use 8 pounds of fertilizer per 1,000 square feet

So the amount of fertilizer you should use is:

57,600 ft^2 * \frac{8\ pounds}{1,000\ ft^2} = 460.8\ pounds

As the fertilizer comes in bags of 50 pound then you need

460.8\ pounds * \frac{1\ bag}{50\ pounds} = 9.2\ bags

Since you can not buy 9.2 bags then we round up to the next whole number.

Finally you need 10 bags of fertilizer

Answer:

The answer is A, (1,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps!

8x-4(x+1) = 0

x =1

y = 1 + 1

y = 2

(x,y) = (1,2)

2 = 1 + 1

8 x 1 - 4 x 2 = 0

Simplify

2 = 2

0 = 0

Solution = (1 , 2)
