Answer: there are 59059 lbs of gravel.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a mixture of​ concrete, there are four lbs of cement mix for each pound of gravel. This means that eight lbs of cement would be mixed for 2 pounds of gravel and 12 lbs of cement would be mixed for 3 pounds of gravel and 12. Therefore, the constant ratio of cement to gravel is 4:1

The total ratio is 4 + 1 = 5

If the mixture contains a total of 295295 lb of these two​ ingredients, then the number of pounds of gravel that are​ there is

1/5 × 295295 = 59059 lbs

P varies directly with the square of R. When R is 4, P is 56. Find the value of P when R is 6
Sav [38]
Hey!
The formula of direct variation is y = kx. So we know that p = kr^2
Hint: after it says varies, it's basically the equal sign. 
so we can set it up
56 = 4^2k
56=16k
now we want k alone so we have to divide 16 on both sides
k=3.5
We can now solve for p like it asks
p = 3.5*6^2
p=126
There's your answer!
Hope this helps!
