A farmer needs to buy fertilizer for his farmland. The instructions on the bag of the fertilizer say 49.5 pounds of fertilizer is needed for 1 acre of land. The farmer buys 2,000 pounds of fertilizer. Which of the following is the approximate number of acres he can cover with the fertilizer he bought?

We are given a mix of fractions and decimals and to compare the numbers, we convert the given decimals to fractions.

4.4 becomes 44/10

4.25 becomes 425/100

Now the set of fractions for comparison are: 9/2, 10/3, 44/10, and 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 3 and 10 is 300. Then,

9/2*300=1350

10/3*300=1000

44/10*300=1320

425/10*300=1275

From the above products, 9/2 gives the greatest value when the fractions are compared with the least common denominator of the given denominators.

Round trip means to and from, which is twice the distance from home to a medical facility.

In one day, the round trip=19+19=38 miles

So, in 22 days, the round trip=38*22=836 miles.

The patient will cover 836 miles in 22 days.

To answer this question, we need to observe the trend of the number of days with dollars. On day 2, the dollars were 8, after 5 days, the dollars decreased to 3, after 13 days, the dollars increased to 10. After 14 days, the dollars declined to 6 and again rose to 16 dollars after 19 days.

From this observation, we cannot be able to establishany correlation between days and dollars.

to solve for x, we order like terms together and proceed as follows:

4x-3-5x=24

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

4x-3+3-5x=24+3

4x+3-3-5x=27

4x-5x=27

-x=27

Divide both sides by -1

-x/-1=27/-1

x= -27

Thus, the unknown value of x is -27

We extrapolate the values of a line between 10 and 15 on y-axis to meet the curve and drop another line from the intersection of the curve to meet the x-axis and read off the age of the car.

Now, let’s extrapolate in the following diagram

The intersection of the line and the x-axis is between 4 and 5 years. This means that the car is about 4.5 years old. From the options given, the age of the car is more than 3 years old.

Here we collect like terms together and solve for the unknown value of x.

7x-6=3x-26

Add 6 to both sides of the equation

7x-6+6=3x-26+6

7x=3x-20

Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation

7x-3x=-20

4x=-20

Divide both sides by 4

4x/-4=-20/4

x = -5

The value of x = -5

We solve the problem by first finding the amount of gallons needed for the whole trip then find the cost of the gallon.

The car uses 1 gallon to cover 25 miles, which is same as:

Now, in 3000 miles, the car will use how many gallons of gasoline?

A trip of 3000 miles will need 120 gallons. And to find the cost of 120 gallons, we proceed as follows:

The family will spend $199.20 to drive for 3000 miles.

The whole pie chart represents 100%, which we use together with the given percentages to find the respective different sports. Note that 100% is equal to 500 surveyed students. The, the number of teenagers who prefer:

Soccer

Hockey

Football

Basketball

Other

From the evaluations above, 90 teenagers love soccer, 80 love hockey, 190 teenagers love football, 120 teenagers love basketball, and 20 teenagers love others.

Let xxx be the amount the friend paid for their car. The problem states:

48,000=2x−2,000

Step 1: Solve for x

Add 2,000 to both sides:

48,000+2,000=2x

Divide by 2:

x=25,000

From the given options, we can arrange the numbers from the smallest to the largest as:

-271.906, -193.823, 145.884, 235.971

From the above, it can be noted that -271 is less than -193 while 235 is more than 145.
