Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, put together the information we have. Total = 121. Emily has 40% more than Carl, and Carl has 60% more than Antony.
2. Next, set each person as a variable. Antony = x. Carl = 1.6x. Emily = 1.4 times 1.6x.
3. Next, form an equation using these variables.
x + 1.6x + (1.4 x 1.6x) = 121
x + 1.6x + 2.24x = 121
4.84x = 121
x = 25
4. Finally, plug in x to our previous variables in step #2 to find the number of stamps Emily and Carl have.
<u>Antony</u>: x = 25 stamps
<u>Carl:</u> 1.6x = 40 stamps
<u>Emily</u>: 1.4 times 1.6x = 56 stamps
By the way, is this for RSM? If so, I am working on that problem right now and I searched up the solution but couldn't find it, so I stumbled upon this. I hope this helped!
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question you would first multiply all the dimensions of the pillar together. That would be:
2.5 x 2.5 x 12 = 75 square feet
Then you take the weight of the pillar and divide it by the amount of square feet:
12,000 / 75 = 160 pounds per square foot.
