Answer:

2700 bushels

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to calculate the square storage bin volume:

Square storage bin volume= Side*Side*Side

<em>Remember that in a square storage bin (cube) the sides are the same length.</em>

Then:

Square storage bin volume= Side*Side*Side

Square storage bin volume= 15 feet*15 feet*15 feet

Square storage bin volume= 3375 $feet^{3}$

We know that 1 bushel fits in 1.25 cubic feet, then in order to calculate how many bushels the square storage bin contain:

3375 $feet^{3}$ * (1 bushel)/(1.25 $feet^{3}$ )

2700 bushels

Given f(x) = 3x - 1 and g(x)= -x + 6, find f(-2) + g(5).<br> A. -6<br> B. 6<br> C. 8

marta [7]

Answer:

A. -6

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=3x-1\\\\$

In order to find $f(-2)$ we will plugin $x=-2$

$f(-2) = 3(-2)-1\\f(-2)=(3\times(-2))-1\\f(-2)=-6-1$

$f(-2)=-7$

$g(x)=-x+6$

In order to find $g(5)$ we will plugin $x=5$

$g(5)=-5+6$

$g(5)=1$

$f(-2)+g(5)\\=-7+1\\=-6$

∴ $f(-2)+g(5)=-6$

Write a ratio, in the simplest form and a percent for the shaded area (there's a 5x4 box and 6 cubes are shaded)

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

$\%Percent = 30 \%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Shaded = 6\ cubes$

$Box = 5\ x\ 4$

Required

Determine the percentage of the shaded cubes

First, we calculate the number of boxes:

$Box = 5\ x\ 4$

Express as multiplication

$Box = 5\ *\ 4$

$Box = 20$

This implies that there are 20 cubes in the box.

The percentage of the shaded cubes is:

$\%Percent = \frac{Shaded}{Box} * 100\%$

$\%Percent = \frac{6}{20} * 100\%$

$\%Percent = \frac{6* 100}{20} \%$

$\%Percent = \frac{600}{20} \%$

$\%Percent = 30 \%$

<em>30% were shaded</em>
