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
This is very simple; don't you worry.
Let's start by breaking down the problem so that it's not overwhelming.
For now, we're only going to focus on the very beginning of the problem -- 4c.
When a number is next to a letter with no signs in between (in terms of this kind of math), the number is called a coefficient and the letter is called a variable. When you see this in math, it means that the coefficient is being multiplied by the variable. But how do you know what the variable is?
In other examples of math, you'd have to solve for the variable, but in this case, they already give it to you! Look back at the top... what does C equal? It equals 4! This means that 4c is actually 4x4, or 4(4)!
What we just did there, changing 4c to 4 multiplied by 4, is called substitution. You just substituted the c with 4. Now you know that to solve this, you need to use the method of substitution. What do you get if you substitute all of the variables with the numbers they equal (as shown above)...?
((4*-4)*5)((10(2*2))/(50(5)))+20(-1). You didn't use parentheses to separate the term /50d + 20q, so I'm assuming that the first part of the problem is only divided by just 50d, and not 50d+20q. In the future, be sure to clarify with parentheses. Anyway...
((4*-4)*5)((10(2*2))/(50(5)))+20(-1).<span> Do NOT let this scare you. All the parentheses do is help you see what is being multiplied. All that's left is simple order of operations! You should get -<em>340 </em>as your answer.</span>
Answer:
<h2>181.33</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the base of the pyramid PABCD is a rectangle, the shape in question is a rectangular based pyramid. Volume of a rectangular based pyramid is expressed as V = 1/3 * Base Area * Height of the pyramid.
Given a rectangle ABCD with AB = 8 and BC = 4, the area of the rectangle will be equivalent to the base area of the pyramid.
Base Area = Length * Breadth
Base Area = AB * BC
Base Area = 8*4 = 32
If 
, and PB = 17, then the height of the pyramid is PB = 17.
Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 * 32 * 17
Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 * 544
Volume of the rectangular based pyramid = 181.33
