Answer: About 8.5 cubic yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The length of the garden = 16 ft.

The width of the garden = 34 ft.

The depth of the thick layer of topsoil on the garden = 5 inch

=\dfrac{5}{12}\text{ ft.}               [Since 1 foot = 12 inches]

The volume of a rectangular prism :-

V=l*w*h, where l is length , w is width and h is height.

The number of cubic feet of topsoil required will be

V=16\times34\times\dfrac{5}{12}=\dfrac{680}{3}\text{cubic feet}

Since 1 yard = 3 feet

1\text{ foot}=\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ yard}

V=\dfrac{680}{3}\times\dfrac{1}{3}\times\dfrac{1}{3}\times\dfrac{1}{3}=8.3950617284\approx8.50\text{cubic yards}

g is right above h

If two lines are cut by a transversal and the consecutive exterior angles are supplementary, then the two lines are parallel. Keep in mind you do not need to check every one of these 12 supplementary angles. Just checking any one of them proves the two lines are parallel

Solve the question below, please.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Adam: 52.26°

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Cosine Rule, Cos(C) = \frac{a^2 + b^2 - c^2}{2ab}, to find the angle of both players.

✔️Angle of Carlos:

Let the angle be C,

a = 50 ft

b = 40 ft

c = 24 ft

Plug in the values into the equation

Cos(C) = \frac{50^2 + 40^2 - 24^2}{2*50*40}

Cos(C) = \frac{3,524}{4,000}

C = Cos^{-1}(\frac{3,524}{4,000})

C = 28.24° (nearest hundredth)

✔️Angle of Adam:

Let the angle be C,

a = 30 ft

b = 22 ft

c = 24 ft

Plug in the values into the equation

Cos(C) = \frac{30^2 + 22^2 - 24^2}{2*30*22}

Cos(C) = \frac{808}{1,320}

C = Cos^{-1}(\frac{808}{1,320)}

C = 52.26° (nearest hundredth)

one third of a land is on maize, a fifth of the remainder is on potatoes and the rest which is 0.5 ha is on beans. how much of t
disa [49]

Answer: 1250\ m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Total land.

Then for Maize = \dfrac{x}{3}    

For Potatoes = \dfrac15(x-\dfrac {x}{3})=\dfrac15(\dfrac{2x}{3})=\dfrac{2}{15}x

For beans = x- (\dfrac{x}{3}+\dfrac{2}{15}x)=0.5 \ ha

\Rightarrow\ x- (\dfrac{5x+2x}{15})=0.5 \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\ x- (\dfrac{7x}{15})=0.5 \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\  \dfrac{15x-7x}{15}=0.5 \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\  \dfrac{8x}{15}=0.5 \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\  x=0.5\times\dfrac{15}{8} \ ha\\\\\Rightarrow\  x=0.9375 \ ha

1 ha = 10000.00 m²

0.9375 ha = 9375 m²

Land for potatoes = \dfrac{2}{15}(9375) =1250\ m^2

Hence, 1250\ m^2 of the land is on potatoes.
