15-3=12, so Monique spent $12 on Squid. So now set the problem up as 6x=12 where x is 1 pound of squid, 6 is how many pounds she bought, and 12 is the price for 6 pounds. Solve...
6x=12 Divide by six on each side to get x=2, so...
The cost of one pound of squid is $2.
Hope this helps!
P.S. the full equation is 6x=15-3, but I wrote it as 12 because we already subtracted the 3 at the beginning.

Find the volume of this cylinder. Please help

algol13

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 384 \ ft^3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is the space an object occupies. The volume formula for a cylinder is provided and it is:

$V= \pi r^2 h$

Where:

r= radius
h= height

The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the edge, and it is 4 feet. The height is 8 feet. We are told to use 3 for pi.

r= 4 ft
h= 8 ft
π= 3

Substitute the values into the formula.

$V= (3)(4 \ ft)^2 (8 \ ft)$

Solve the exponent.

(4 ft)²= 4 ft * 4 ft = 16 ft²

$V= (3)(16 \ ft^2)(8 \ ft)$

Multiply the three numbers together.

$V= 48 \ ft^2 (8 \ ft)$

$V= 384 \ ft^3$

The volume of the cylinder is approximately <u>384 cubic feet.</u>

Paula has a dog that weighs 3 times as much as Carla's dog. The total weight of the dogs is 80 pounds. How much does Paula's dog

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

60 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the weights of the dogs by P and C. Then P = 3C.

Then P + C = 80, or, after substitution of 3C for P,

3C + C = 80, or

4C = 20, so that C = (20 pounds)

Paula's dog weighs 3 times as much as Carla's: P = 3(20 lb) = 60 lb
