If the ratio is 7:8, and the number of boys is 42, you would do 42 divided by 7, which equals 6. Then you do 8 times 6, and that's equal to 48. So the ratio is 42:48, with an amount of 48 girls.

A family built a house and wanted to put down in their rectangular yard. The sod costs $0.32 per square foot plus 10 per square

sammy [17]

Answer:

The total cost of purchasing and laying sods in the rectangular yard is $2,146.67

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Dimensions of rectangular yard:

Length = 50 feet

Width = 30 feet

Area of rectangular yard =

$A = \text{Length}\times \text{Width}\\A = 50\times 30\\A = 1500\text{ square feet}$

Cost of sod = $0.32 per square foot

Total cost of sod =

$C_1 = \text{Unit cost of sod}\times \text{Area of yard}\\C_1 = 0.32\times 1500\\C_1 = 480\$$

Cost of laying sods = $10 per square yard

Total cost of laying sod =

$C_2 = \text{Unit cost of laying sod}\times \text{Area of yard}\\\\\text{1 square yard}=\dfrac{1}{9}\text{Square foot}\\\\C_2 = 10\times \dfrac{1500}{9}\\\\C_2 = 1666.67\$$

Total cost of purchasing and laying the sod =

$C = C_1 + C_2\\C = 480 +1666.67\\C = \$2,146.67$

Thus, the total cost of purchasing and laying sods in the rectangular yard is $2,146.67
