Answer:
22 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
When z "varies jointly" with x and y, it can be described by the formula
z = kxy
Here, we have bags of mulch (n) varying jointly with area (a) and depth (d), both in feet. The given information can let us find the value of k.
n = kad
10 = k·(120)(1/4)
10/30 = k = 1/3 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of k
Now, we can fill in the other values of interest.
n = (1/3)·(200)·(1/3) = 200/9
n = 22 2/9
You need 22 2/9 bags of mulch to cover 200 ft² to a depth of 4 inches.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
This problem requires the formula be written with both area and depth expressed in feet, yet it gives depth in inches. The formula can also be written using depth in inches. In that case, k = 1/36.
Answer:
Norton's
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that the down payment of Mazzeo's store = 1/3 on all installment purchases
Whereas Norton's depot required 30% down payment on installment purchases.
1/3 is fractional value of 33.33%.
therefore, Norton's Store's down payment rate is lower than that of Mazzeo's store.
Answer: Last one is right C = 5 / 9 (F-32)
Step-by-step explanation: Solving C from equation F = (9/5)C + 32 :
1. multiply by 5 you get 5F = 9C + 160 and 5(F-32) = 9C
2. divide by 9 you get (5/9) (F-32) = C
