After doing some work in the house, Bob and Carol want to put a concrete patio on the side of the house to keep people from trac

king mud inside. They decide to hire someone to do the work. The dimensions of the rectangular patio are 23 feet 9 inches by 10 feet 1 inch. The patio will need to be at least 4 inches deep. Rachel’s Ready-Mix bid on the job based on the information provided. Make sure that you fill in each answer area before checking "How Did I Do?". Calculate the volume of concrete needed, in cubic yards, adding 5% to allow for spillage and an uneven base Round up to the nearest 14 cubic yard.

Answer:

V=3.098 yd³

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question we need to work with formula of the Volume of rectangular prism, the patio. Once it is required 1 inch deep. Some relations will be useful.

As 1 yard = 1 feet/3

1 yard = 1 inch/36

1 feet=12 inches

a) 23 feet 9 inches

23 ft 9''=23 +9/12=23.75 ft

b)10 feet  1 inch

10 feet  1" = 10ft + 1/12=10.083 ft

c)4 inches: 4/12 =0.33

V= w.l.h

V=23.75*10.083*0.33=79.025 ft³

Converting from cubic yard to cubic feet:

V≈79.025 : 27 yd³=2.926 yd³

Considering the possible spillage due to uneven base. ( adding 5%of V)

V≈ 2.92+0.05*(2.92)=3.098 yd³

Answer:

3.25 cubic yard of concrete

Step-by-step explanation:

Additional data:

One cubic yard of concrete 4-inches thick covers 81 square feet.

The dimensions of the rectangular patio are 23 feet 9 inches (23.75 feet) by 10 feet 1 inch (10.083 feet). Then, its area is 23.75 feet*10.083 feet = 239.48 square feet. Using the aforementioned proportion:

1 cubic yard of concrete/x cubic yard of concrete = 81 square feet/239.48 square feet

x = 239.48/81 = 2.96 cubic yard of concrete

Adding 5% to allow for spillage: 2.96*105% = 3.108 cubic yard of concrete

Rounding up to the nearest quarter cubic yard: 3.25 cubic yard of concrete

Choose the appropriate pattern and use it to find the product: (p4−q4)(p4+q4).
sp2606 [1]

The expression can be solved by expanding the bracket and multiplying out the terms

(p^4-q^4)(p^4+q^4)\begin{gathered} =p^4(p^4+q^4)-q^4(p^4+q^4) \\ =p^8+p^4q^4-p^4q^4-q^8 \\ =p^8-q^8 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the expression can be simplified as;

p^8-q^8

Alternatively, using the theorem of difference of two squares, which is

a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)

Hence,

p^8-q^8=(p^4)^2-(q^4)^2

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

60 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

so he enlarged it by three so it would be 24by30

because of that, you have to multiply 20g by 3 also

that gives you 60 gallons

Pls answer this i need help
Vitek1552 [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

your don't see what went wrong ?

Tyrell worked on

16 - 2(4 + 3x)

what do brackets mean ? they mean that this operation has to be done before everything else in the expression.

as this contains a variable, we cannot fully calculate it, true, but we need to keep this in mind and always treat the content of the brackets as one package.

so, whatever I do from the outside with one part of that package, I have to do also with all the other parts of that package.

so, the multiplication with -2 has to happen with both : 4 and 3x. not just with 4.

therefore, the correct simplification looks like

16 - 8 - 6x

8 - 6x or -6x + 8

Amelia multiplied correctly, but then made a mistake summing things up

10x - 3(4x + 1)

10x - 12x - 3

10x - 12x = -2x

I can't mix the pure constant -3 into the factors of x. that would be like the famous mixing of apples and oranges.

so, the result is

-2x - 3

Suppose c was a total membership cost for m the two equations that model c are c=30m+50 an c=20m+100
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

c = 30m + 50

c = 20m + 100

Required [Missing from the question]

At what month will the cost be equal

To do this, we equate both expressions

c = c

This gives:

30m + 50 = 20m + 100

Collect like terms

30m - 20m = 100 - 50

10m = 50\\

Solve for m

m = \frac{50}{10}

m = 5
