Sara buys soil from a gardener to fill a planter.The gardener has 1.5 cubic feet of soil to sell for $6. Sara buys just enough s

oil to fill her planter, which is a prism with a height of 0.5 feet and a square base where each side length is 1 foot. How much will it cost Sara to completely fill her planter with soil?

The first thing you should do is calculate the volume of the prism.
 We have then:
 V = h * L ^ 2
 Where,
 L: side of the square base.
 h: height.
 Substituting we have:
 V = (0.5) * (1) ^ 2 = 0.5 feet ^ 3.
 Then, we can make the following rule of three:
 1.5 feet ^ 3 ---> 6
 0.5 feet ^ 3 ---> x
 Clearing x we have:
 x = (0.5 / 1.5) * (6) = 2 $
 Answer:
 it will cost Sara 2 $ to completely fill her planter with soil

This is found by multiplying pi by the radius squared
Minchanka [31]

Find the product (4x-5y)^2
sleet_krkn [62]
To find the product of (4x-5y)^2,
we can rewrite the problem as:
(4x-5y)(4x-5y) (two times because it is squared)

Now, time to use that old method we learned in middle school:
FOIL. (Firsts, Outers, Inners, and Lasts)

FOIL can help us greatly in this scenario.
Let's start by multiplying the 'Firsts' together:
4x * 4x = <em>16x^2</em>

Now, lets to the 'Outers':
4x * -5y = <em>-20xy</em> 

Next, we can multiply the 'Inners':
-5y * 4x = <em>-20xy</em>

Finally, let's do the 'Lasts':
-5y * -5y = <em>25y</em>^2

Now, we can take the products of these equations from FOIL and combine like terms. We have: 16x^2, -20xy, -20xy, and 25y^2.
-20xy and -20xy make -40xy.

The final equation (product of (4x-5y)^2) is:
16x^2 - 40xy + 25y^2

Hope I helped! If any of my math is wrong, please report and let me know!
Have a good one.

What is the solution of the system of equations? 6x-2y = 4 -9x+3y = 12
katrin2010 [14]

We will have the following:

First, we solve both equations for y, that is:

6x-2y=4\Rightarrow-2y=-6x+4\Rightarrow y=3x-2

&

-9x+3y=12\Rightarrow3y=9x+12\Rightarrow y=3x+4

From this we can see that they are parallel lines, that do not share any common points, so there is no solution for the system.
