Answer: 22.5 . The weight of the elephant is "22.5 times greater" than the weight of the lion.
_________________________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________________________
(weight of lion) * (x) = (eight of the elephant) ; Solve for "x" .
_____________________________________________________
→ Divide each side of the equation by "(weight of lion)" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
→ (weight of lion)*(x) / (weight of lion) = (weight of the elephant) /
(weight of lion) ;
________________________________________________________
→ x = (weight of the elephant) / (weight of lion) ;
__________________________________________________________
→ Plug in our "given values" ; and solve for "x" ;
__________________________________________________________
→ x = (<span>9*10</span>³) / (4*10²) = (9*10⁽³⁻²⁾) / 4 = (9*10¹) / 4 ;
__________________________________________________________
→ x = 90 /4 = 25/2 = 22.5 ; which is our answer.

Yes you are correct with that answer
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
, substitute values
= 
( cross- multiply )
10YZ = 230 ( divide both sides by 10 )
YZ = 23 → c
Answer:
66
Step-by-step explanation:
12(8)-9(8-6)-(12-9)(8)÷2=96-18-12 or 6(9)+(12-9)(8)/2=54+12
= 66 =66
Paula's dog is 36 lbs
Use the equation 48=3x+x
Add like terms: 48=4x
Divide: 12=x (x=Carla's dog's weight)
Then Multiply x by 3 to get Paula's dog's weight and you get 36 lbs
