Although the concept here is physics, the solution is technically just algebra. You have two situations that are related to each other which can be expressed in equation form. Actually, the equation is already given which is <span>7/12 w= 13 5/12. So, basically, all you have to do is solve for w.
Let's simplify 13 5/12 first into an improper fraction.You do this by multiplying the denominator with the whole number and adding to it the numerator. This will be your new numerator, The denominator would still be 12. So, this is equal to (12*13 + 5)/12 = 161/2. Then,
(7/12) w = 161/12
By cross multiplication,
7*12*w = 161*12
w = 161/7 = 23
Therefore, w = 23 pounds which is the weight of the object on Earth.

Answer:
if the area of the base is 20 then the volume is 300 if it's 16 then it's 240 but if it's 25.6 then the volume is 384. I would give you a specific answer if the area of base was specified
Answer:
The 72 feet is measured on the slope, not out from the pole horizontally. I get
top of pole is at
40 + 72 sin17°
downhill point is
72 cos 17°
from point beneath the pole
cable^2 = (40+72 sin17°)^2 + (72 cos 17°)^2
