A farmer has decided to divide his land area in half in order to plant soy and corn. Calculate the area of the entire area so he knows how much soil is needed. Each bag of soil covers 40 square yards. How many bags should the farmer purchase?
1 bag
2 bags
3 bags
4 bags
A farmer has decided to divide his land area in - 1

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The farmer should purchase 2 bags of soil for his farm.

The shape of the farm, according to the picture is a parallelogram. Therefore, the total area can be calculated as follows:

Area = bh

where

b = base

h = height

Therefore,

base = 6.5 + 2.5 = 9.0 yards

height = 6 yards

Area = 6 × 9 = 54 square yards.

40 square yards requires 1 bag of soil .

54 square yards will require ?

cross multiply

Bags required = 54 / 40 = 1.35 bag

Therefore, the farmer will require 2 bags of soil for his farm.

A chess club has 500 members but is losing 30 members each year. A computer club has 150 members and is gaining 20 members per year. Write and solve an equation to find the number of years it will take for the two clubs to have the same number of members.

Answers

Answer:

7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A chess club has 500 members but is losing 30 members each year. A computer club has 150 members and is gaining 20 members per year

To Find:  Write and solve an equation to find the number of years it will take for the two clubs to have the same number of members

Solution:

Total members in chess club= 500

chess club loosing members each year = 30

Number of members in chess club in year \text{x}

                                                                500-30\text{x}

Total members in Computer club= 150

chess club gaining members each year = 20

Number of members in chess club in year \text{x}

                                                                150+20\text{x}

Now,

When chess club and computer club have equal number of members

                     500-30\text{x}= 150+20\text{x}

                     500-150=30\text{x}+20\text{x}

                     350=50\text{x}

                     \text{x}=7

So,

It will take 7 years for two clubs to have the same number of members.

Well for this a t-chart type of graph would help but here's how you can do it:

key: ChC = chess club
       CmC = computer club

ChC = 500 members        ChC = losing 30/yr
CmC = 150 members        CmC = gaining 20/yr

year 1 :     ChC     CmC
members: 470   /   170

or.... you can scrap that, here's the simpler version : 
500 - 30x = 150 +20x

solution: x = 7

Hope this helps!
