Answer:

115Gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate the Volume - Volume of a cylinder is done by this formula, V=π*R^2*H.

3.14x1.5^2x4.5=V

V=31.79ft^3

2. Find the amount of Gallons it can hold total - V=31.79 Now per 1ft^3 its roughly 7.5 gallons. 31.79x7.5=238.44gallons

3. Find the amount occupied by the water currently in the barrel - So we need the middle point so we have something to go off of, now 2.5ft isn't half of 4.5, 2.25 is. So 238.44/2=119.22Gallons. Now 2.5 is 53.4% the difference is 3.4. So we need to take 119.22Gallons*.034=4.05 now add that to the 119.22 and you get 123.27 gallons used

4. How much is left over? - Take 238.44-123.27=115.17 more Gallons that the barrel can hold.

Hope this helped :)

Answer:

384 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the figure given in the question above is simply a combined shape of parallelogram and rectangle.

To obtain the area of the figure, we shall determine the area of the parallelogram and rectangle. This can be obtained as follow:

For parallelogram:

Height (H) = 7.5 cm

Base (B) = 24 cm

Area of parallelogram (A₁) =?

A₁ = B × H

A₁ = 24 × 7.5

A₁ = 180 cm²

For rectangle:

Length (L) = 24 cm

Width (W) = 8.5 cm

Area of rectangle (A₂) =?

A₂ = L × W

A₂ = 24 × 8.5

A₂ = 204 cm²

Finally, we shall determine the area of the shape.

Area of parallelogram (A₁) = 180 cm²

Area of rectangle (A₂) = 204 cm²

Area of figure (A)

A = A₁ + A₂

A = 180 + 204

A = 384 cm²

Therefore, the area of the figure is 384 cm²

A man spent exactly $2.50 on 3¢, 6¢, and 10¢ stamps. If he bought ten 3¢ stamps and
tigry1 [53]
You have 2.50.
3 times 10 is 30, so now you have
2.20.
he bought twice as many six cent stamps as ten cent stamps.
multiples of six that are applicable are 30, 60, 90, 120.
six goes into 30 five times. Five can't be divided in half.
six goes into 60 ten times. ten divided in half is five. fifty plus sixty, is only 110.
six goes into ninety 15 times. fifteen can not be divided in half.
six goes into 120 twenty times. 20 divided in half is ten. ten times ten is 100.
100 + 120 = 220. 
He bought 10 10cent stamps
