3,000 yd3 = 200 dtl
Chapter 1: Problem Solving 17 / 21
Rates Question
12 A highway had a landslide, where 3,000 cubic yards of material fell on the road, requiring 200 dump truck loads to clear. On another highway, a slide left 40,000 cubic yards on the road. How many dump truck loads would be needed to clear this slide?
3,000 yd3 = 200 dtl
40,000 yd3 × 200 dtl = 2,667 dtl
3, 000 yd3
As we can notice the shape is a Pentagon. A Pentagon's angles should add up to 540. So we can use simple addition and subtraction to solve.
121 + 108 + 102 + 100 = 431
540 - 431 = 109
109 should be your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure what your problem here is.
you understand the inequality signs ?
anyway, to get
6×f(-2) + 3×g(1)
we can calculate every part of the expression separately, and then combine all the results into one final result.
f(-2)
we look at the definition.
into what category is -2 falling ? the one with x<-2, or the one with x>=-2 ?
is -2 < -2 ? no.
is -2 >= -2 ? yes, because -2 = -2. therefore, it is also >= -2.
so, we have to use
1/3 x³
for x = -2 that is
1/3 × (-2)³ = 1/3 × -8 = -8/3
g(1)
again, we look at the definition.
into what category is 1 falling ? the one with x > 2 ? or the one with x <= 1 ?
is 1 > 2 ? no.
is 1 <= 1 ? yes, because 1=1. therefore it is also <= 1.
so we have to use
2×|x - 1| + 3
for x = 1 we get
2×0 + 3 = 3
6×f(-2) = 6 × -8/3 = 2× -8 = -16
3×g(1) = 3× 3 = 9
and so in total we get
6×f(-2) + 3×g(1) = -16 + 9 = -7
ANSWER
56.1 square inches.
EXPLANATION
The area of this triangle can be calculated using the formula,

where a=8in.
b=14.2 in.
and C=99° is the included angle.
We plug in these values to obtain,


We round to the nearest tenth to get,
56.1 sq. inch
