Answer is 11.5

Total weight of the shipment is 65, and 1 envelope weight 7.5 that’s means
65-7.5= 57.5

As we are looking for each box weight in pounds so you divided 57.5/5 =11.50

Hope this helps!

Initial weight= 65 lbs total


STEP 1
Subtract weight of envelope from total weight

65 - 7.5= 57.5 lbs for 5 boxes


STEP 2
Divide remaining weight equally into 5 parts (5 boxes of equal weight)

57.5 ÷ 5= 11.5 lbs per box


ANSWER: Each box weighs (B) 11.5 pounds.

Hope this helps! :)

Insert 2 geometric means between -32 and 4
denis23 [38]

Answer:

16, -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the terms of the geometric sequence be a, ar, ar^2, ar^3.

We know that a=-32 and thus, -32r^3=4 \implies r=-1/2.

This means ar=(-32)(-1/2)=16 and ar^2=-32(1/2)^2=-8.

A water tank is in the shape of a right circular Austin simulato water tank is in the shape of a right circular Cylinder with a
Burka [1]
⓵ To calculate the volume of a right circular cylinder, the formula is π times the radius of the circular base² time the height of the cylinder.

⓶ Now that we know that the equation to calculate the volume of a right circular cylinder is :

V = π x (r²) x h

You need to find the numbers to replace the volume (V) and the height (h) in the formula.

We already know that the volume is 320 square feet and that the height is 20 feet.

So we are left with a formula looking like this :

320 = π x (r²) x 20

⓷ Now we need to find the radius of the circular base! To do so, you need to solve this equation and isolate the “r”. Start by simplifying the right side :

320 = π x (r²) x 20
÷20 ÷20

↓

16 = π x r²
÷π ÷π

↓

5,09 ⋍ r²
√ √

↓

2,26 feet ⋍ r

⓸ Now that we knoe the value of the radius of the circular base, all there’s left to do is multiply this number by two in order to find the diameter of the water tank :

2,26 x 2 = d

↓

4,51 feet ⋍ d

So your final answer is : the diameter of the water tank is about 4,51 feet.

** Since I devided by “π”, all the answers I wrote from that point are rounded to the nearest hundredths just to make things easier to visualize, but I kept all of the decimals when doing the calculations. So it is possible that your answer might differ slightly from mine if you use the rounded numbers to calculate everything. Just keep that in mind!

I hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻
