Answer: it will cost $50.4 to cover one-fourth of the garden with flowers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy’s garden is rectangular in shape and the formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length × width

The dimensions of Amy’s rectangular garden are 15 feet by 12 feet. This means that the area of the garden would be

15 × 12 = 180 ft²

The area equivalent to one-fourth of the garden would be

1/4 × 180 = 45ft²

The flowers will cost $1.12 per square foot of ground covered. Therefore, the cost of covering one-fourth of the garden with flowers would be

45 × 1.12 = $50.4

Answer:

  $50.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The garden has an area of ...

  (15 ft)(12 ft) = 180 ft²

Amy wants to cover 1/4 of that with flowers, so the area devoted to flowers is ...

  (1/4)(180 ft²) = 45 ft²

The cost for each square foot is $1.12, so the cost of the flowers will be ...

  ($1.12/ft²) × 45 ft² = $50.40 . . . . cost to cover 1/4 of the garden with flowers

Given:
2 rectangular prism.
same height
square bases


                                    Box A     Box B
Square Base side          2 ft        0.75 ft
Height                            4 ft        4 ft

Solving for the space inside each rectangular prism, we need to find its volume.

Volume of a rectangular prism = length * width * height

Box A: 
Volume = 2 ft * 2 ft * 4 ft = 16 cubic feet

Box B:
Volume = 0.75 ft * 0.75 ft * 4 ft = 2.25 cubic feet

Box A - Box B = difference in space

16 cubic feet - 2.25 cubic feet = 13.75 cubic feet

Box A contains 13.75 cubic feet more space than Box B.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

9 textbooks!

Step-by-step explanation:

Rucksack can hold = 6kg

Mass of textbook = 680g

So, here we need to show the division for finding the number of textbooks it can hold.

680 g in KG's = 0.68

Now, 6/0.68

That is 8.82 ( Round off = 9 textbooks)
