Hey there James!
So, just remember, 2/5 is almost half of 1.
When it is almost half of 1, this means that it would have to be 2.5/5
This would mean that 4/10 would be your answer, because it is almost half of 1 also.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
16.3 years
Step-by-step explanation:
1 ha = 10,000 m^2
The total capacity of the landfill is:
If waste is compacted to twice its delivered density, its volume is half of the delivered volume. Assuming that a year has 52 weeks, the volume of compacted solid waste dumped per year is:
The expected life of the landfill is given by its capacity divided by the yearly volume:
The landfill has an expected life of 16.3 years.
1) -2/2i
2) you divide the 2's
