Answer: 17.75 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

After putting soil in the first flower bed, Layla's bag was ⅝ full. The pound of soil will be: = 5/8 × 10 = 6.25 pounds

Eliana's bag was ⅖ full. The pound of soil will be: = 2/5 × 10 = 4 pounds

Nature's bag was ¾ full. The pound of soil will be: = 3/4 × 10 = 30/4 = 7.5 pounds

The number of pounds of soil that they put in the first flower bed altogether will be:

= 6.25 + 4 + 7.5

= 17.75 pounds

Ariane borrows $300 on a 5−year loan. She is charged 5% simple interest per year. How much interest is she charged for 5 years?
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Interest = $75

Total to pay back = $375

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount she will have to pay back is found by the formula:

= Amount borrowed * (1 + rate * years)

= 300 * ( 1 + 5% * 5)

= $375

The interest is therefore:

= Amount to be paid back - Amount borrowed

= 375 - 300

= $75

If y varies directly as x and y=32 when x=4. find the constant of variation​
Llana [10]

Answer:

k = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 32 when x = 4, then

32 = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )

8 = k
