Area of the field should be 9*10 = 90 square feet.
a bag of grass seeds cover 15 square feet.
so if you need to know how many bags should be used, then,
Total area of field/ area covered by 1 bag of grass seeds.
= 90/15 = 6 bags
he needs to use 6 bags of grass seeds to cover the whole field.
I don't think there are any 'hidden' questions, though you can consider the 2nd part of the question I guess. (how many bags of seed will Paul...)

2x+4(2x+7)=3(2x+4)<br> What is x
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+4(2x+7)=3(2x+4)

Distribute

2x+8x + 28 = 6x +12

Combine like terms

10x +28 = 6x +12

Subtract 6x from each side

10-6x+28 = 6x +12 -6x

4x +28 = 12

Subtract 28 from each side

4x+28-28 = 12-28

4x = -16

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = -16/4

x = -4

Check the picture below.

\bf \textit{total surface area of a cone}\\\\&#10;SA=\pi r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}+\pi r^2~~&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;r=radius\\&#10;h=height\\&#10;-------\\&#10;r=17\\&#10;\sqrt{r^2+h^2}=12&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;SA=\pi (17)(12)+\pi (17)^2\implies SA=204\pi +289\pi \implies SA=493\pi

Two life insurance policies, each with a death benefit of 10,000 and a one-time premium of 500, are sold to a couple, one for ea
Kazeer [188]

Answer:896.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes excess premium over claims

E\left ( x|husband survives\right ), There are two possibilities

(i)Only husband survives

This can be possible with a possibility of 0.01

Claims=10,000

Premium collected=2\times 500=1000

Thus x=1000-10,000=-9000

(ii)Both husband and wife survives

This can occur with a probability of 0.96

Here claims will be 0 as both survives

Premium taken=1000

thus x=1000

The probability that the husband survives is the sum of above cases

=0.96+0.01=0.97

Hence the desired conditional Expectation E\left ( x|Husband survives\right ) =0.01\times \left ( -9000\right )+0.96\times \left ( 1000\right )=896.9
