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

In AEFG, F = 61 inches, ZF=79º and ZG=34°. Find the length of g, to the nearest<br> 10th of an inch.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

  g ≈ 34.7 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines is useful for this:

  f/sin(F) = g/sin(G)

Multiplying by sin(G), we have ...

  g = f·sin(G)/sin(F) = (61 in)·sin(34°)/sin(79°)

  g ≈ 34.7 in

Joel earns $5.50 an hour and time-and-a-half for overtime. how much does he earn for a 44.5-hour week?
vova2212 [387]
The expression which can be used to solve this problem is 5.50h + 1.5h. 

Since the given data is 44.5 hour week, all we need to do is substitute the given data to the expression. Since it takes 56 hours a week for a complete office/working hour without overtime, Joel's 44.5 hour week means he did not have overtime hours. Therefore the solution is,

5.50(44.5) = 244.75 Dollars.
