Answer: Andre picked 252 pounds of apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of pounds of apple picked by Jane.

Let y = number of pounds of apple picked by Andre

Let z = number of pounds of apple picked by Maria

Andre picks three times as many pounds as maria. It means that

y = 3z

Jane picks two times as many pounds as Andre. It means that

x = 2y

The total weight of the apples is 840 pounds. It means that

x + y + z = 840 - - - - - - - - - 1

We will substitute z = y/3 and x = 2y into equation 1

2y + y + y/3 = 840

Cross multiplying with 3

6y + 3y + y = 2520

10y = 2520

y = 2520/10 = 252

x = 2y = 252× 2 = 504

z = y/3 = 252/3 = 84

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Balloon in the east makes an angle of elevation of 36^{\circ} and is at height of 461 m

Balloon in the west makes an angle of elevation of 51^{\circ} and is at height of 296 m

Erica height is 1.6 m tall   so net altitude of Red balloon is 459.4 m

and net height of Blue balloon is 294.4 m

using trigonometry

\tan 36=\frac{459.4}{d_1}

\tan 51=\frac{294.4}{d_2}

d_1=632.30 m

d_2=238.4 m

Distance between two Balloons

d=d_1+d_2

d=870.70 m

PLEASE HELP!!!!! DUE TODAY!!!!!
prisoha [69]

Answer:

12.4 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

Radius of the circular top of the cone = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{2}{2}=1

Height of the cone = h

Lateral height of the cone = h

By applying Pythagoras theorem in the right triangle of the cone,

l² = r² + h²

6² = 1² + h²

h = \sqrt{36-1}

h = \sqrt{35}

Ice cream needed to fill one cone = Volume of the cone

Since, formula for the volume of the cone V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h

V = \frac{1}{3}\pi (1)^2(\sqrt{35})

   = 6.195

   ≈ 6.20 cm³

Ice cream needed to fill the two cones = 2 × 6.20

                                                                 = 12.4 cm³

Therefore, ice cream needed to fill the two cone = 12.4 cm³
