Answer:

the tent can hold 8.66 lb of water (or 240 in³ of it)

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that the tent base is a rectangular area , and the vertical cross section is triangular , then the volume of the tent will be:

Volume of the tent = Area* height/2 = 60 in² * 8 in / 2 = 240 in³

assuming the density of water as 62.4 lb/ft³ then

mass of water = density * volume = 62.4 lb/ft³ * 240 in³ * (1 ft / 12 in)³ = 8.66 lb

then the tent can hold 8.66 lb of water (or 240 in³ of it)

7w + 6 + 2w = (w + 2)
Sindrei [870]

Hey there!

The correct answer is w = \frac{-1}{2}

7w + 6 + 2w = w + 2          ~ Write the equation

9w + 6 = w + 2                   ~ Simplify

8w + 6 = 2                          ~ Subtract w from both sides

8w = -4                             ~ Subtract 6 from both sides

w = \frac{-1}{2}                                ~ Divide both sides by 8

Hope it helps and have a great day!

Based on information from previous years, 40% of the fans at each of a baseball team's Games are female. At one of the team's Ga
SSSSS [86.1K]
I think it is 1200 people. Because if 40% are female and there are 480 females, then do 480 x 2 and that equals 960 then half of 480 is 240 so add 960 to 240 and you get 1200 as the total amount of people there. I'm not sure if it's right, but it should be.

Shannon bought 518 pounds of apples. Bill bought 278pounds of apples. Which most closely estimates how many more pounds of apple
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

240 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Shannon bought 518 pounds of apples.

Bill bought 278 pounds of apples.

We need to find how many more pounds of apples Shannon bought than Bill.

More Apples = Shannon Apples - Bill Apples

= 518 - 278

= 240

Hence, 240 pounds of apples Shannon bought than Bill.
