72 represents 6 "units", so divide by 6 to get the number of people in one "unit":

72/6 = 12

Now multiply by 5 to get the number of boys:

12 * 5 = 60 boys

Find the exact volume of a waffle ice cream cone with 15-in. Diameter and a height of 23 inches
Andrew [12]
Radius = 15/2 = 7.5
Volume of cone: pi(r)^2*h/2
= pi(7.5)^2*23/2
pi(56.25) * 23/2
(3.14)(56.25)(23)/2 = 2,031 inches

Twice the difference of a number and 9 is 3. Use the variable b for the unknown number.
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

b = 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(b-9) = 3

then:

2*b + 2*-9 = 3

2b - 18 = 3

2b = 3 + 18

2b = 21

b = 21/2

b = 10.5

check:

2(10.5 - 9) = 3

2*1.5 = 3
