1 pound = 16 ounces.

9 pounds of sand x 16 = 144 total ounces of sand.

144 ounces / 6 ounce bottle = 24

He made 24 bottles.

a clock cost R179 excluding VAT. if VAT is charged at 14% determined the price of the clock including VAT

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer: R204.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of clock = R179

Value Added Tax = 14%

The price of the clock will be the addition of the cost of the clock and the value added tax. This will be:

= R179 + (14% × R179)

= R179 + (0.14 × R179)

= R179 + R25.06

= R204.06

Therefore, the price of the clock is R204.06.

A city park commission received a donation of playground equipment from a parents' organization. The area of the playground need

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Length = 20.49 yards and Width = 12.49 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangular playground is given by 256 yards square. It is also known that one of the sides of the playground is 8 yards longer than the other side. Therefore, let the smaller side by x yards. Then the longer side will be (x+8) yards. The area of the rectangle is given by:

Area of the rectangle = length * width.

256 = x*(x+8)

x^2 + 8x = 256. Applying the completing the square method gives:

(x)^2 + 2(x)(4) + (4)^2 = 256 + 16

(x+4)^2 = 272. Taking square root on both sides gives:

x+4 = 16.49 or x+4 = -16.49 (to the nearest 2 decimal places).

x = 12.49 or x = -20.49.

Since length cannot be negative, therefore x = 12.49 yards.

Since smaller side = x yards, thus smaller side = 12.49 yards.

Since larger side = (x+8) yards, thus larger side = 12.49+8 = 20.49 yards.

Thus, the length and the width to minimize the perimeter of fencing is 20.49 yards and 12.49 yards respectively!!!

Sammy counts the number of people in one section of the school auditorium. He counts 18 female students, 16 male students, and 6

Rzqust [24]

Correct Question:

He counts 18 female students, 16 male students, and 6 teachers. There are

720 people in the auditorium. Consider the probability of selecting one person

at random from the auditorium.

Which of these statements are true?

Choose all that apply.

A: The probability of selecting a teacher is 6%.

B : The probability of selecting a student is 85%.

C : The probability of selecting a male student is 32%.

D : The probability of selecting a female student is 45%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option B and D are correct because

The total number of people in one cross section = 18 + 16 + 6 = 40.

A = The probability of selecting a teacher is = (6/40)x100 = 15 % not equal to 6 %

B = The probability of selecting a male student is = (34/40)x100 = 85%

C = The probability of selecting a male student is = (16/40)x100 = 40 % not equal to 32 %

D : The probability of selecting a female student is = (18/40)x100= 45%
