I think garden center grass seed sells for eight dollars per pound Haley spent $10 on grass seeds what amount of C did he buy

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: If seeds are 8 per pound then you need to find the unit rate and make a proportion with how much she spent. So you can make a ratio of 1(pound) / $8 compared to x(pounds) / $10. Then, cross-multiply.
10 = 8x. Divide both sides by 8
10/ 8 = x Simplify the fraction
1 1/4 = x
So, she bought 1 1/4 pounds of seeds

This is for #11 and #12.
First lets find the lateral area of each triangle. We will use thefollowing formula:-
lateral area = 4 (1/2 * base * slant height)
11. LA = 4 (1/2 * 8cm * 7.5 cm)
= 120 cm^2

12. LA = 4 (1/2 *14 in * 12in ) =
  LA = 336 cm^2
Nowlets find the surface area:-
surface area = lateral area + area of the base
11. S.A. = 120 cm^2+ 8 * 8
  = 120 cm^2 + 64
= 184 cm^2S.A. = 336 cm^2+ 14 * 14
12.   = 336 cm^2 + 196
   = 532 cm^2
LateralArea:-
11. 120 cm^2
12. 336 cm^2
SurfaceArea:-
11. 184 cm^2
12. 532 cm^2
