Answer:

The weight of the blue marlin = b = 252 pounds

The weight of the amber jack = a = 12 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean and his chartered a fishing boat for the day Sean caught a blue marlin and an amberjack.

Let

The weight of the blue marlin = b

The weight of the amber jack = a

The weight of the blue marlin weigh 12 times as that of the amberjack.

b= 12a

The combined weight of both fish was 273 pounds.

= a + b = 273 pounds

b = 12a

Hence

a + 12a = 273 pounds

13a = 273 pounds

a = 273 pounds/13

a = 21 pounds

b = 12a

b = 12 × 21 pounds

= 252 pounds

Hence:

The weight of the blue marlin = b = 252 pounds

The weight of the amber jack = a = 12 pounds

At a certain toy store, tiny stuffed zebras cost $3 and giant stuffed zebras cost $14. The store doesn't sell any
stepan [7]

Answer:

<h2><em><u>60</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

tiny stuffed zebras(tsz)= $3

giant stuffed zebras(gsz)=$14

total sold=$208

208÷3=69.3recurring so that's incorrect as you cannot sell .3 of a zebra so keep going until you find the next whole number. (trial and error)

207÷3=69 but it cant be this as it is not the whole money made

208-14=194

194÷3=64.6recurring (cannot be this)

194-14=180

180÷3= 60 = answer as 60 tsz is $180 and add that to 2 gsz and that totals to 208 which is the total

The volumes of two similar solids are 1331 m3 and 216 m3. the surface area of the larger solid is 324 m3. what is the surface ar
zavuch27 [327]
Two solids are said to be similar when their corresponding sides and angles are proportional and congruent. Since the solids here are similar, we calculate as follows:

Assuming the solid is a sphere
V1/V2 = r1^3 / r2^3 = 1331/216 = 6.16203
r1/r2 = 11/6

A1/A2 = (r1/r2)^2
324/A2 = (11/6)^2
A2 = 42.84 m^2
