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?

In this problem, to find one side of the square garden, we use the calculator to find the square root of 13. Thus

Thus, the approximate side of a square garden is about 3.6 ft

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.

We are given that 1 teaspoon=4.93 mL, we can interpret it as:

Or

Since we are to find the amount in mL, we look for an option that will cancel teaspoon and remain with mL. The second option is the required conversion, and we proceed as follows:

Therefore, 2.5 teaspoons hold about 12.325 mL.

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.

we use the US customary system of units’ equivalent to convert from yards to inches. We know that 1yard=3 ft, and 1 ft =12 inches.

First, convert 2 ¾ into an improper fraction.

Then,

Here we are required to find the area of the square of sides 3.1 m. The square is a four-sided figure with each side equal and opposite sides making 90 degrees.

Area of the square =side*side

Side=3.1 m

Area of the square =3.1 m *3.1 m=9.61 m2

Note: 3.1 + 3.1 = 6.2 which is a wrong answer.

We can interpret ‘cannot exceed” as less than ‘<’. Therefore, in our inequality, the symbol < must be included. Now let’s convert the word problem into a mathematical inequality.

Money spent on supplies=s

Money spent on textbooks=t

Total money spent=money spent on supplies + money spent on textbooks

Total money spent = s+t

But the money spent cannot exceed $12,000. Then,

s+t <$12,000.
However the money spent can still be equal to $12000, as it has not exceeded it.

Therefore, therequired inequality is s + t <= $12,000.

The best way to display the frequency of each day of the week when students get up after 8 a.m. is by using a bar graph. Bar graphs are well-suited for representing categorical data, where each day of the week is a separate category, and the height of each bar corresponds to the count or frequency of students waking up late on that specific day.

Note: Histograms, on the other hand, are more appropriate for visualizing continuous or numerical data and are not ideal for categorical data like days of the week.Histograms are useful for understanding the distribution of data, identifying patterns, and assessing the shape of the data distribution, such as whether it's normally distributed, skewed, or has multiple modes.

As you can see below, the Histogram is used to depict a pattern/continuous data. While a bar graph does just fine even with discrete data.

all products represent 100%. Then, the portion of defect products is:

0.0025 of 100%

‘of’ means multiply

0.0025 *100%=0.25%
