Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The ratio of soil, manure and leaf mould is 
That means
For every 6 liters of the compost, he use 3 liters of soil
so by proportion
Find how many liters of soil does he use for 72 liters of compost

Answer:
605 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio of boys to girls is 5:7
and there are 847 girls
we can plug this value into the ratio by doing something like:
5:7
= 5/7
= x/847
Because the ratio has to be the same, we can substitute x for the number of boys and solve by the cross method or whatever you guys call it.
5 x
--- x ------
7 847
The x in the middle is just to show the direction you are multiplying.
the 5 is multiplied by the 847 and the 7 is multiplied by x.
847 * 5 = 4,235
4,235 divided by 7 is 605
605 is your answer.
The cross method can be used in most situations.
* is used to represent multiplication btw

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If $10,000 is invested at an interest rate of 2% per year, compounded semiannually, find the value of the investment after the given number of years. (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)
a)6 years
b)12 years
c)18 years
***
compound interest formula: A=P(1+r/n)^nt, P=initial investment, r=interest rate, n=number of compounding periods per year, A=amt after t-years.
For given problem:
P=10000
r=.02
n=2
t=6, 12, 18
..
A(6)=10000(1+.02/2)^2*6
A(6)=10000(1.01)^12=11,268.25
A(12)=10000(1.01)^24=12,697.35
A(18)=10000(1.01)^36=14,307.69
Answer:
It is 39.3
Step-by-step explanation:
You find the circumference using the formula 2πr so you get 20π.
and then you multiply that by 225/360 bc 360 is how much the whole circle is and the 225 part is the part you want to solve.
So 20π*225/360 is about 39.3
