Divide the size of the walkway, 50 cubic feet, by the amount that each bag makes, 15 cubic feet; 50/15 =3.3. A little over 3 bags are needed to fill the walkway. Therefore, 4 bags need to be purchased.

For the highway portion of the trip. Joe will average 65 mph for 13 miles. Since 13 is 1/5 of 65, this portion of the trip will take Joe 1/5 of an hour, or 12 minutes. For the remaining 12 miles of the trip, Joe will average 24 mph. Since 12 is half of 24, this portion of the trip will take half an hour or 30 minutes. The total time will be 12 minutes + 30 minutes = 42 minutes. To arrive by 1:30 p.m., Joe must leave no later than 12:48 p.m. since 1:30 p.m. - 42 minutes = 12:48 p.m. Therefore, the correct answer is 12:48 p.m.

Subtract the length of the shelf, 5.6 ft, from the total length of the wall, 12 ft, in order to find out how much extra wall space there is; 12 ft - 5.6 ft = 6.4 ft. Since the shelf has to be centered, the extra 6.4 ft. must be distributed evenly on either side; 6.4 ft/2 = 3.2 ft must be left on each side of the shelf.

The water heater is marked up 15% from $1,850, $1,850x 1.15 = $2,127.50,
and then discounted 25%, $2,127.50 x 75 = $1,595.63. The last piece is to add the tax, $1,159.63 x.065 = $103.72, To the total price, $1,595.63 + $103.72 = $1,699.35.

Take the total money and divide it by the cost to find out how many can be purchased, $854/$58 = 14.72. For this problem you must round down to 14 drills. If you try to purchase 15 drills the total bill will be too high, 15 x $58 = $870.

Replace w with 14 since the package weighs 14 ounces over 2 pounds. The formula is then $C = $2.95+$0.30 x 14. The order of operations states that multiplication is always done before addition. Multiply $0.30 by 14; $0.30 x 14 = $4.20, then add the result to $2.95; $2.95+$4.20 = $7.15.

To find the total bill, add up the cost of the items for a total of $229.97, $12.56 +$141.08 + $76.33 = $229.97

Since each shelf can hold 9 cans, divide 126 by 9; 126/9 = 14.

The landscaping uses 8 lbs of fertilizer per day. They are operating 6 days a week, so to find the amount of fertilizer they
use in a week, multiply 8 Ibs/day x 6 days/wk = 48 Ibs/wk. Since the fertilizer is sold in 20 lb containers, Joon needs to buy 3 containers to cover them for a week, even though there may be 12 lbs left over.

This is a problem disguised with confusing information. The 2:5 ratio must be held in a proportion similar to this, where x represents the real height of the house: 2/5 = 10.2/x;2x = 51;x= 25.5

100 x 8 (L x H) = 800 square feet x 14 (brick per square foot) = 11,200 (brick) / 200 (brick per hour) = 56 (hours of labor) x $42.50 (labor per hour) = $2,380.

Note: m2 = sq. meter. The pebble walkway is acting like a border around the pool. There is now a larger rectangle around the pool with an additional 5 m on each side, 2.5 + 2.5 = 5. If you find the area of the larger rectangle and subtract away the area inside,
you are left with the area of the border. It is almost like cutting out the middle of the big rectangle. The area of the large rectangle is: 3,400 m2, |xw = A, 85x40 = 3,400. The area of the pool is only 2,800 m2,80 x 35 = 2,800. Subtract the two areas to find that the is 600 m2,3,400-2,800 = 600.

Replace s with $2,200. The equation becomes E = 0.22x2,200 + 150. The rules for order of operations state that multiplication is always 38. done before addition, Therefore, complete the multiplication, ' 0.22x2,200 = 484, first, then add 150 to the result; 484+ 150 = $634.

There are 12 months in a year and $68.50 is held each month for the government. To find the total for the year, multiply the cost
each month by 12 to represent an entire year: 12 x $68.50 = $822.

The number of undamaged bricks is 133,145 -12 = 133. To find the percentage available, divide the number of available bricks
by the total number that were sent and multiply by 100 to get a percentage, 133/145 x 100 = 91.7%.
