Question is mrs. henley built a cage .she wants to cover the bottom with news paper. if the cage is 1/4 yard bu 1/2 yard what is the area that needs to be covered?

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you

the volume is the product of the area of the base, 3x(3x+4), and the height, 3x-1
