The fence is 210 ft long.
There is a post every 3.5 ft.
If you divide 210 ft by 3.5 ft, you get the number of spaces between posts.
(210 ft)/(3.5 ft) = 60
The fence starts with a post. Then there is 3.5 ft of fencing. Then there is another post. Then there is another 3.5 ft of fencing followed by a post. In total there are 61 posts.
Here's another way of thinking of why you end up with 60 posts.
For each 3.5 ft of fencing, you place a post at the end of the fencing.
Since there are 60 3.5-ft-long pieces of fencing, there will be 60 posts, one at the end of each piece of fencing. The first thing that is done is to put the initial post before any fencing is put up. The first post plus 60 more posts add up to 61 posts.
Now that you see why there are 61 posts, we can calculate their cost.
61 * $8.50 = $518.50
There are 8 big fish for every 10 small fish, ..... 5 small fish.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cylinder is given as:
Since the diameter is 
, the radius is 
.
Therefore, the volume of this cylinder is:
, using 
as requested in the problem.
Since the tank is emptied at a constant rate of 
, it will take
to empty the tank.
Answer: X = 3t, Y =2 - t, Z =2
Step-by-step explanation: the plane
x + y + z =4has normal vector
M =<1,1,1> and the line
x = 1 + t, y = 2 − t, z = 2t has direction
v =<1, −1, 2>. So the vector
A= n × v
=<1, 1, 1> × <1, −1, 2>
=<2−(−1),1−2,−1−1>
=<3,−1,−2>
Answer:
BC:BN=8:3
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCD is a trapezoid and there is a point m which belongs to AD such that AM:MD=3:5.Line "l" parallel to AB intersects the diagonal AC at p and BD at N.
Now, we know that the parallel lines divide the transversal into the segments with equal ratio, therefore, BN:NC=AM:MD
But, BC= BN+NC
Therefore, BC:BN=(BN+NC):BN
⇒BC:BN=(3+5):3
⇒BC:BN=8:3
