Answer:

2.32 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem says that he spent $8.10 0n pixie sticks and it also says, when you clarified, that 1 pound of pixie sticks is $3.48.

We will use Rule of Three to solve this problem, Rule of Three is used to solve proportions. To solve it we write:

$3.48 → 1 pound

$8.10 → x pounds

First, we multiply and then divide

(To know how to solve Rule of Three, check the image attached)

We can write an expression like this:

x = ($8.10 * 1 pound) / $3.48

x = $8.10 / $3.48

x = 2.32 pounds

Two pillars have been delivered for the support of a shade structure in the backyard. they are both ten feet tall and the cross

BartSMP [9]

The steps to determine whether the pillars have the same volume are;

First, we must know that the volume of an object of uniform surface area is the product of its Area and height.

The uniform area of each pillar is then evaluated and if equal;

Both pillars can be concluded to have the same volume.

We must first recall that for various shapes, the volume of the shape is a function of its height.

For example: a A cylinderical pillar and a rectangular prism pillar;

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Volume of a Cuboid = l × w × h
