The equation we'll use for this is:Total Gifts = Veronica's Gifts (v) + Natalie's Gifts (n).
12 = v + n
The problem says Veronica got 3 times as many gifts as Natalie.
You can directly translate this into an equation!
v = 3 * n = 3n.  This means we can replace any v with 3n.
So, 12 = v + n = 3n + n = 4n
12 = 4n
3 = n.  Natalie got 3 gifts.
We can now plug back in for Veronica's gifts:
v = 3n
v = 3(3)
v = 9.  Veronica got 9 gifts.

Identify the volume of the composite figure rounded to the nearest tenth. HELP PLEASE!!
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

V = 115.3 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The left part of the figure shows a cube of side length 4.2 ft.  The volume of a cube is V = s³, where s is the side length.  Hence, the volume of this particular cube is V = (4.2 ft)³ = 74.088.

The volume of a pyramid is V = (1/3)(base area)(height).

Here V = (1/3)(4.2 ft)²(7 ft) = 41.16 ft³.

Summing up the two distinct areas, we get V = 41.16 ft³ + 74.088 ft³, or

V = 115.3 ft³ after rounding up to the nearest tenth.
