Answer:
To completely fill the sandbox will cost $56
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we calculate volume of the rectangular-shaped sandbox:
We know that density of sand is 100 pounds per cubic foot. Then, to fill the sand box that has a volume of 8 cubic foot, we calculate by rule 3:
1cubic foot..............100 pounds
8 cubic foot.............x pounds
We will need 800 pounds of sand to fill the sandbox, then we can calculate by rule 3 the number of bags needed and next the total cost of them:
50 pounds.......1bag
800 pounds.....x bags
To calculate the cost:
1 bag ..................$3.50
16 bags.................$x
To completely fill the sandbox will cost $56
First, let the number of skis rented by x and the number of snowboards rented by y. We can then assemble the first equation from the amount of money made from the rentals.
44x + 58y = 2232
The second equation can come from the fact that 9 more skis were rented than snowboards.
y = x - 9
Therefore our system is:
44x + 58y = 2232
y = x - 9
Let's forget for the tie being the cost ($3.5)of the 1st fifth of a mile:
Taxi charge excluding $3.5, is $13.95 - $3.5 = $10.45.
If each of the 5th (1/5) of a mile costs $0.55, then with $10.45 we can drive:
10.45/0.55 = 19 fifth of a mile. Add to that the 1st fifth = 20 fifth of a mile
20 fifth = 20 x 1/5 = 4 miles (answer)
Yes it is because of the chimney
