Answer:
The volume of the cylinder is 
cubic feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
From Geometry we remember that volumes of a cone and a cylinder with the same radius (
), measured in feet, and height (
), measured in feet, are defined by the following equations:
Cone
(1)
Cylinder
(2)
The ratio of the volume of the cylinder to the volume of the cone is:
(3)
If we know that 
, then the volume of the cylinder is:
The volume of the cylinder is cubic feet.
2 1/3+ 3 5/6+ 6 2/3
= 7/3+ 23/6+ 20/3
= 14/6+ 23/6+ 40/6
= 77/6
= 12 5/6
The final answer is 12 5/6~
Answer:
Weight gain = 84 lb 5 oz
Average weight gain = 6 lb 5 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
lb means pounds
16 oz = 1 pound
Convert the weight to pounds
Weight when she was born = 8 lb. 13 oz
= 8 pounds + 0.8125 pounds
= 8.8125 pounds
Present weight = 93 lb. 5
oz
= 93 pounds + 0.3125 pounds
= 93.3125 pounds
How much has she gained since birth
Weight gain = Present weight - Weight when she was born
= 93.3125 pounds - 8.8125 pounds
= 84.5 pounds
= 84 lb 5 oz
Weight gain = 84 lb 5 oz
what has been her average weight for each year if she is 13 year old
Average weight gain = Weight gain / 13
= 84.5 pounds / 13
= 6.5 pounds
= 6 lb 5 oz
Average weight gain = 6 lb 5 oz
