The first thing you must do is to calculate the weight of the gravel (w) that the truck holds (7.5 yards³). So, you have:
If the weight of 1 yard³ is 1.48 tons, then the weight of 7.5 yards³ is:
w=7.5x1.48 tons
w=11.1 tons
The problem says that the gravel will be placed in containers that each hold 3.7 tons of gravel,so, If they need 1 cotainer to place 3.7 tons, how many containers they need to place 11.1 tons?
1 container-------3.7 tons of gravel
x-------11.1 tons of gravel
x=(11.1x1)/3.7
x=11.1/3.7
x=3 containers
H<span>ow many containers of this size are needed to hold all the gravel from one truck?

The answer is: 3 containers.
Step-by-step explanation: Using the equation, y = mx + b, the slope-intercept form, plug in the values you have and solve for b. (m is the slope.) You have y = -8 and x = 4 and m = 1/2.
Answer:
One unit to the right.
Step-by-step explanation:
I entered both equations into desmos and rootx - 1 is one unit to the right.
Desmos is a great tool for graphing
Given:
The local rate for electrical service is 6 cents per kilowatt-hour.
We need to know how much money would be saved in a year by using a dishwasher 4times per week rather than 6 times per week
From the table:
The cost of using a dishwasher 4 times per week = $29
The cost of using a dishwasher 6 times per week = $44
So, the saving will be = 44 - 29 = 15
So, the answer will be $15
