You will divide the 12 by 28: 12/28 and that equals 3/7
From my research, the image below belongs to the question. From what is seen in the image, there are 2 arcs already drawn with respect to the new vertex. The third arc corresponds to the point where the line DM is made. This line is similar to line BC. So at the point where the second and third arcs would meet, it would be a point similar to a point on line AB.
I think the pressure is going to be hard when you dive 100 feet deep below surface
"measures to the nearest tenth of a pound" tell us to round each of the weights listed to the nearest tenth (since the unit is already pounds, no conversion is needed). What this means is if the second number to the right of the decimal is 5 or greater, then we add 1 to the first number to the right of the decimal (and replace the second number with a zero). With all this said, it's much easier to show you, rather than to try to explain it. :D
4.35 is rounded up to 4.4 because the second number to the right of the decimal is 5.
Packet A = 4.4
Packet B = 4.4
Packet C = 4.5
Packed D = 4.4
The question is asking what the heaviest reading will be, so from the whole list above we pick the highest number which is 4.5 pounds. Notice how the answer is not Packet C, or 4.48 pounds, but 4.5 pounds. It is asking for the reading, not the packet, nor the weight. Hope this helps.
Step-by-step explanation:
volume = [(15×11)+(½×15×8)] x 12
= (165+60) x 12
= 225×12
= 2,700 cm³
