Answer:

  • 160 yd³ must be hauled
  • $520 is the cost

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 feet in a yard, so the volume of the hole is ...

  (45 ft)/(3 ft/yd) × (16 ft)/(3 ft/yd) × (6 ft)/(3 ft/yd)

  = (15 × 16/3 × 2) yd³ = 160 yd³ . . . volume to be hauled

__

The cost is $13/(4 yd³), so the total cost will be ...

  ($13/(4 yd³)) × 160 yd³ = $520 . . . cost of hauling

50× 3/8 how to reduce answer to lowest te
hoa [83]

The lowest term is \frac{75}{4}.

Solution:

Given expression is 50\times\frac{3}{8}

<u>To reduce this term to the lowest term:</u>

$50\times\frac{3}{8}=\frac{50}{1}\times\frac{3}{8}

Multiply the numerator and denominator.

$50\times\frac{3}{8}=\frac{150}{8}

Now, divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor.

Here 150 and 8 both have common factor 2.

So, divide numerator and denominator by 2.

           $=\frac{150\div2}{8\div2}

           $=\frac{75}{4}

$50\times\frac{3}{8}=\frac{75}{4}

Hence the lowest term is \frac{75}{4}.

HELP PLEASE <br> What is the area of the kite below?
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Area = 33 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a kite is:

Area = ½ × (d)1 × (d)2

To find the first diagonal (d1):

d1 = 7 in + 4 in = 11 in

To find the second diagonal (d2):

The triangles on the right of the kite must be 3 4 5 triangle since it is a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 5 and a side of 4, we know half of a diagonal would be 3 inches.

d2 = 3 in + 3 in = 6 in

Now we can plug the diagonals into the area formula.

Area = ½ × 11 × 6 = 33 inches squared
