Step-by-step explanation:

12 × 9 × 6 = 648 cubic feet ( volume of slab )

3 feet to a yard

So 648 ÷ 3 = 216

Multiply this by 1.1 to add an extra 10%

237.6 Cubic Yards Needed

$85 × 237.6 = $ 20196

d. Adjustments

Studen loan interests and IRA contributions are deductions found under the heading of ADJUSTMENTS TO INCOME to compute for the Adjusted Gross Income or AGI.

Standard deductions are those based on the filing status of the individual and not his total itemized deductions. Regardless of the actual expenses incurred by an individual, he can claim a standar deduction if he is single, head of household, married filing separately, married filing jointly, qualifying widow(er). at the time he files for his federal tax return.

taxable income is the income left from all the necessary deductions.

For example: Gretchen's income =>                 $56,750
   less: Adjustments to income
             student loan interest $1,200
             IRA Contribution            3,000                  -  4,200
                                                                               ===========
Taxable income                                                    $52,550

The gas mileage for a certain vehicle can be approximated by m=−0.05x2+3.5x−49, where x is the speed of the vehicle in mph. Dete
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

<h2>14mph</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the gas mileage for a certain vehicle modeled by the equation m=−0.05x²+3.5x−49 where x is the speed of the vehicle in mph. In order to determine the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg, we will substitute the value of m = 9 into the modeled equation and calculate x as shown;

m = −0.05x²+3.5x−49

when m= 9

9 = −0.05x²+3.5x−49

−0.05x²+3.5x−49 = 9

0.05x²-3.5x+49 = -9

Multiplying through by 100

5x²+350x−4900 = 900

Dividing through by 5;

x²+70x−980 = 180

x²+70x−980 - 180 = 0

x²+70x−1160 = 0

Using the general formula to get x;

a = 1, b = 70, c = -1160

x = -70±√70²-4(1)(-1160)/2

x = -70±√4900+4640)/2

x = -70±(√4900+4640)/2

x = -70±√9540/2

x =  -70±97.7/2

x = -70+97.7/2

x = 27.7/2

x = 13.85mph

x ≈ 14 mph

Hence, the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg to the nearest mph is 14mph
