Water that weighs 325 lbs will fill 5.2 cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple question of cross multiplication

DATA:

1. The weight of water for 1 cubic feet is 62.5

2. The weight of water for 'X' cubic feet is 325

3. To find x, form an equation:

Cubic feet : Weight of water

1 : 62.5

X : 325

4. Cross multiply

X x 62.5 = 1 x 325

62.5X = 325

5. Make X the subject

X = $\frac{325}{62.5}$

6. Solve to find X

X = 5.2 cubic feet

Therefore, water that weighs 325 lbs will fill 5.2 cubic feet.

Answer:

y = 1.6 x

y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a direct variation is

y = k x

In this case

x = 10

y = 16

y = k*x

16 = 10*k

16/10 = k

k = 1.6

y = 1.6x

================

Let x = 15

y = 1.6 * 15

y = 24

a rectangle is transformed according to the rule r0, 90º. the image of the rectangle has vertices located at r'(–4, 4), s'(–4, 1

AleksandrR [38]

Graph images undergo transformations, one of the types of transformations are rotations.
rotation is done when each point of the image rotates 90° around a point in the counterclockwise manner.
when rotation is done, (x,y) -> (-y,x)
therefore when taking points from image to original then the reverse is done ;
(-y,x) --> (x,y)
the coordinates of image point q' is (-3,4)
before rotation then the coordinates are (4,3)
answer is (4,3)
