Answer:

$2\frac{22}{25}$ cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the weight of water is 62 and one half lb per cubic foot and we are to find the number of cubic feet that would be occupied by 180 lb of water.

For that, we will divide total amount of water by per unit weight of water:

Cubic feet occupied by 180 lb of water = $\frac{180}{62.5} =$ = 2.88 cubic feet or $2\frac{22}{25}$ cubic feet

Rewrite: 72x3/4 please show how you got answer

Alex_Xolod [135]

We have been given the expression

$72 \times \frac{3}{4}$

We can rewrite the expression as $\frac{72\times 3}{4}$

In order to simplify the given expression, we can check if we have any common terms in the numerator and denominator.

We can write the term 72 which is in the numerator as $18\times 4$

Thus, the expression becomes

$\frac{18\times 4\times 3}{4}$

We can see that 4 is common in both numerator and denominator. Hence, we can cancel 4. Thus, we are left with

$18 \times 3\\
=54$

Therefore, we can rewrite the given expression as 54.

Solve p=10a+3b for a

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

a = (p - 3b)/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).

p = 10a + 3b

First, subtract 3b from both sides.

p (-3b) = 10a + 3b (-3b)

p - 3b = 10a

Next, isolate the a. Divide 10 from both sides.

(p - 3b)/10 = (10a)/10

(p - 3b)/10 = a

a = (p - 3b)/10 is your answer.
