Answer: 5 bags of sand

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are 8 elementary schools

3 Tons of sand is needed

It is contained in a 50- Pound bag

1 ton is equivalent to 2000 Pound

No of 50- Pound bag required is

\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{2000}{50}\\\\\Rightarrow n=40

These 40 bags will be required in 8 schools. So, each school requires

\Rightarrow \dfrac{40}{8}=5\ \text{bag}

Answer:

The number of bags required for each school is 16.53

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of schools = 8

Total sand required = 3 tons

mass of each bag = 50 pounds

Sand required for each school = 3 ton/ 8 = 3000 / 8 kg = 375 kg

1 pound = 0.454 kg

1 kg = 2.205 pounds

So, 375 kg = 826.7 pounds

So, the number of bags required for each school =  826.7/50 = 16.53 bags

-4x + 6 = 3x - 36<br><br> How do I solve this
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-4x + 6 = 3x - 36

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. Add 4x to both sides: 6 = 7x - 36
  2. Add 36 to both sides: 42 = 7x
  3. Divide both sides by 7: x = 6

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

-4(6) + 6 = 3(6) - 36

-24 + 6 = 18 - 36

-18 = -18
