Answer:

650 cannonballs

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The stack of Cannonballs is really the sum of squares.

The top layer is 1^2

The second layer is 2^2

The Third layer is 3^2

....

layer 12 ( the bottom layer) is 12^2

The formula for this is

n*(n + 1)*(2n + 1)/6

n = 12

12(12 + 1)(2*12 + 1)/6

12 * 13 * 25/6

650

The sum of this pyramid is 650 Cannonballs

FIRST ANSWER GET BRAINLEST
liraira [26]

Let's call x the price of a box of slime.

Gianna spent 4 × $58 for art supplies so 4(58) + 8x all together.  We have

392 ≤  4(58) + 8x ≤ 472

We can work with both inequalities at once.  4(58)=232 so we subtract that from all three sides.

160 ≤ 8x ≤ 240

Divide all three sides by 8, a positive number so the inequalities don't flip.

20 ≤ x ≤ 30

Answer: Least: $20, Most: $30
