A lawn sprinkler sprays water 7 feet in every direction as it rotates. What is the distance around the outside circle of water?
Readme [11.4K]
The answer is B. To find the Circumference (what you're looking for) you use 2×pi×radius. Which is 2×pi×7. In terms of pi that's just 2×7, which equals 14. So that means your answer is 14pi.

Tripp and Rico are two dogs. Tripp weighs exactly 35 pounds more than Rico. Together, they weigh exactly 49 pounds. How much doe
babymother [125]
Call the weights of the two dogs t and r.

We know that Tripp weights 35lbs more than Rico, or:
t=r+35

We also know that the total weight of both dogs is 49lbs.:
t+r=49

Now, by substitution:
(r+35)+r=49
2r+35=49
2r+35-35=49-35
2r=14
r=\frac{14}{2}
r=7
Rico weighs 7lbs.

Then:
t=r+35
t=7+35
t=42
Tripp weighs 42lbs.

To check our work:
t+r=49
42+7=49
49=49  CHECK!

John has a box that is in the shape of a cube (i.
Artemon [7]
A box (cube) has all equal edges or sides (s), thus the volume (v) of the cube is:
v =  {s}^{3} \\ 27 \:  {in}^{3} =  {s}^{3}  \\  \sqrt{( {s}^{3}) } =  \sqrt{( {27in}^3)}  \\ s = 3 \: in
So since each side or edge around is 3 in, then the length around the square bottom of the box = 4×3 = 12 in

Distribute property to simplify 4(3x+2)
Julli [10]

Here is the equation:

4(3x+2)

Since 4 is next to the parentheses, you have to multiply everything in the parentheses by 4.

First multiply 3x by 4:

3x \times 4 = 12x

Now multiply 2 by 4:

4 \times 2 = 8

Now add them together:

12x+8 = 12x +8

Your answer is <u>12x + 8</u>
