Greetings!

<span>"The sum of twice a number and 13 is 75."...

Let's translate this into an equation:
</span> $2x+13=75$
<span>Solve for x:
Add -13 to both sides.
</span> $(2x+13)+(-13)=(75)+(-13)$
Simplify.
$2x=62$
Divide both sides by 2.
$(2x)/2=(62)/2$
Simplify.
$x=31$

The variable is equal to 31.

Hope this helps.

You need to cover the playground of a child development center with mulch. the playground is 125 feet long and 60 feet wide. you

kirill [66]

The answer is 139 cubic yards

This mulch will be of cylindrical shape.
The volume (V) of a cylinder is:
V = l · w · h (l - length, w - width, h - height (in our example, height = depth)

It is known:
l = 125 feet
w = 60 feet
h = 6 inches = 0.5 feet

V = l · w · h = 125 · 60 · 0.5 = 3750 feet³

Since 1 cubic foot is 0.037 cubic yards, 3750 cubic feet are 139 cubic yards:
0.037 · 3750 feet³ = 138.75 cubic yards ≈ 139 cubic yards
