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

A square has an area that is less than 100m^2. What is a reasonable range for the graph of the square side?
bezimeni [28]
The area of the square is obtained by taking the square of the length of one side. Since it is said that the area of the square is less than 100 m^2, taking the square root of that where: sqrt (100) = 10, the side of that square should be less than 10 as well. Among the choices, D. 0 <y <10 (where y = length of side of square) is the correct answer.
