A square garden has sides of length 10 ft. If topsoil costs $5 / cubic foot, how much will it cost to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden?

Respuesta :

Cost to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden is $1000.

The quantity of square units required to completely fill a square is known as the area of a square. The region that lies inside the confines of a flat item or a two-dimensional figure is generally referred to as the area. Measurements are made in square units, with square meters serving as the reference unit 

Area of a Square = Side × Side.

Therefore, the area of square = Side square units.

Side of a square garden= 10 ft.

Area of a square garden= Side × Side= 10 × 10 =100 square ft.

Cost of the whole garden = 100×$5 =$500

Cost to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden =$500/0.5

The cost need to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden is $1000

According to the given statement

we have given that the

side length of the square garden is 10ft.

topsoil cost per foot is $5

And we have to find the cost which required to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden.

So,

The  side length of the square garden is 10ft.

Now, the volume of the cube is (a)^2

And

Total volume of cube = 10*10

Total volume of cube = 100 per square foot.

Now, we find the cost required for a topsoil.

Cost required to put a topsoil of 1 foot in the total volume of cube = volume*cost

So,

Cost required to put a topsoil of 1 foot in the total volume of cube = 1000*5

Cost required to put a topsoil of 1 foot in the total volume of cube = $5000

if we put a topsoil of 0.5 feet then

The cost required = $5000/0.5

The cost required = $1000.

So, The cost need to put a 0. 5 ft layer of topsoil on the entire garden is $1000
