Answer: 32 paving stones

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first we have to convert the measures of the paving stones into meters.

Since: 1m = 100 cm

50 cm /100 = 0.5m

Now, we have to calculate the area of each paving stone:

Area of a square: s^2 = 0.5^2 = 0.25m2

Next, the area of the path.

Area of a rectangle = width x length = 1 x 8 = 8 m2

Finally, we have to divide the area of the path by the area of each paving stone:

8/0.25 = 32 paving stones

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Answer: Jonathon needs to buy 32 paving stones.

Step-by-step explanation:

The paving stones are square and 50cm wide. Since each paving stone is a square, the side lengths are equal. Area of each stone is

50² = 2500 cm²

100 cm = 1 meter

the path is to be 8m long and 1 m wide. Converting to cm, it becomes

Length = 8 × 100 = 800 cm

1 × 100 = 100 cm

Area of the path to be covered is

800 × 100 = 80000 cm²

Therefore, the number of paving stones that Jonathon needs to buy is

80000/2500 = 32

Kamil invests 9000 for 4 years his investment pays compound interest of x% per anumn
elena-s [515]

To get the Total amount upon investment for the compound interest, plug in the value of x into the given expression bellow

<em>A = 9,000.00(1 +  x/100)^(4)</em>

Given data

Principal = $9000

Time = 4 years

Rate = x% per annum

<h3>Solution</h3>
  • Step one:

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = x/100

r = x/100

  • Step two:

Then solve the equation for A

A = P(1 + x/100)^t

A = 9,000.00(1 + x/100)^(4)

A = 9,000.00(1 +  x/100)^(4)

  • Summary:

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, with compound interest on a principal of $9,000.00 at a rate of x% per year.

Divide 8 by 6 and you will get 1 and 1/3 pounds per dog. You can draw 6 dogs, then equally assign the pounds of dog food to each dog. I would not recommend this technique, however.
