Answer:

seed will = 2075\frac{7}{10} ft²

for high setting bag need 5 bags

for low setting bag need 7 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

lawn length = 40\frac{4}{5} ft

lawn width = 50\frac{7}{8} ft

highest setting = 500 square feet

lowest setting = 300 square feet

to find out

how many square feet of seed will he need to cover the entire area and How many bags of seed will he need if he uses the highest setting and The lowest setting

solution

area = length × width   ...............

area =  40\frac{4}{5} × 50\frac{7}{8}

area = \frac{204}{5} × \frac{407}{8}

area = \frac{204*407}{5*8}

area = \frac{20757}{10}

seed will = 2075\frac{7}{10} ft²

and

for high setting bag need

bag need =  \frac{area}{high setting}

bag need =  \frac{2075}{500}

bag need =  4 \frac{3}{20}

so here 4 bag is not sufficient so need 5 bags

and

for low setting

bag need = \frac{2075}{300}

bag need = 6 \frac{11}{12}

so here 6 bag is not sufficient so need 7 bags

Answer:

a.  He will need 2,075.7\ ft^2 of seed to cover the entire area.

b.  He will need 5 bags of seed if he uses the highest setting and 7 bags of seed if he uses the lowest setting.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. You can calculate the area of his lawn by multiplying its dimensions.

The dimensions are:

40\frac{4}{5}\ ft by 50\frac{7}{8}\ ft

We can convert the mixed numbers to decimal numbers. To do this,we must divide the numerator by the denominator of the fraction and then we must add the quotient to the whole number part.

Then, these are:

(40+0.8)\ ft=40.8\ ft

(50+0.875)\ ft=50.875\ ft

Then:

Area=40.8\ ft*50.875\ ft\\\\Area=2,075.7\ ft^2

He will need 2,075.7\ ft^2 of seed to cover the entire area.

b. Let be "h" the number of bags of seed that he will need if he uses the highest setting.

You know that one bag of seed will cover 500 square feet if he uses the highest setting. Then:

h=\frac{2,075.7\ ft^2}{500\ ft^2}\\\\h=4.15\\\\h\approx5

Let be "l" the number of bags of seed that he will need if he uses the lowest setting.

You know that one bag of seed will cover 300 square feet if he uses the lowest setting. Then:

l=\frac{2,075.7\ ft^2}{300\ ft^2}\\\\l=6.9\\\\l\approx7

A rental car company charges $25 per day to rent a car and $0.12 for every mile driven. Violet wants to rent a car, knowing that
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The written inequality can be written as 0.12x + 25 <= 150.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality you would plug in the 125 miles for x so 0.12(125) + 25 <= 150 0.12(125) would equal 15 so 15 + 25 <= 150 150/40 would equal 3.75 days but you cant have .75 of a day so Violet would have three days max to afford to rent the car while staying in her budget.

Rosa Roberto Andera and Inno find a estimate for ✓10. Who has proposed the best soulution?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

D. Inno

Step-by-step explanation:

You can estimate cube roots by trying to get the two closest cube roots. Inno used √9 and √16. These two roots are the closest to √10. The cube root of √9 and √16 are 3 and 4 respectively, which means the √10 is between these two numbers, because √10 is between √9 and √16. √9 is the closest to √10, so the cube root of 10 is a number close to 3.

My english can be confusing but I tried :) Hope you understand it.
