Answer:

p=32/15 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write the correct equation. Inverse variation problems are solved using the equation y=k/x. In this case, you should use v and p instead of x and y. y=k/x---> v=k/p  

Step 2: Use the information given in the problem to find the value of k. In this case, you need to find k when v = 32 and p = 4. 32=k/4 128=k

Step 3: Rewrite the equation from step 1 substituting in the value of k found in step 2. v=128/p  

Step 4: Use the equation found in step 3 and the remaining information given in the problem to answer the question asked. In this case, you need to find p when v = 60.  

60=128/p    60p=128           p=32/15 pounds

Obtuse means more than 90 degrees. A triangle's angles add up to 180 degrees so can't have two obtuse angles.

anastassius [24]

Answer:

1/46656 I believe. probability isn't really my strong suit tho.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 chance for rolling a one × 1/6 chance of rolling a two and so on.

so you get

1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6 = 1/46656
