The volume of a cone is equal to
Volume = pi * r^2 * h / 3

The volume of a cylinder is equal to
Volume = pi * r^2 * h

The cone is filled with 6 cubic inches colored sand.
As you observed, the volume of the cone is 1 / 3 of the volume of the cylinder.

Cone = Cylinder / 3
6 = Cylinder / 3
Cylinder = 18

So the answer is A. 18.

erik [133]

x = total number of students

equation is:

 (3/4)x = 1464

 to solve for x divide both sides by 3/4

x = 1464 / 3/4 = 1952

 x = 1952

Arrange the steps in the correct order to solve the equation 3 (2^2t-5 )- 4=10
liberstina [14]
The equation to be solved is: 3 [ 2 ^ (2t - 5) ] - 4 = 10

The steps are:

1) transpose - 4=> 3 [ 2^ (2t - 5) ] = 10 + 4

2) Combine like terms => 3 [2^ (2t - 5) ] = 14

3) Divide both terms by 3 => 2^ (2t - 5) = 14 / 3

4) Take logarithms of both sides => (2t - 5) log (2) = log (14/3)

5) Divide both sides by log (2) =>

                log (14/3)
2t - 5 = -------------------
                 log (2)

6) transpose - 5+>

                log (14/3)
2t  = ------------------- + 5 = 2.22 + 5
                 log (2)

2t = 7.22

7) divide both sides by 2 => t = 7.22 / 2 = 3.61

Answer:

16a + 22t = 11826

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 (a) ticket = $16

Cost of 1 (t) ticket = $22

Total tickets sold = 648

Cost of 648 tickets = $11826

So eqn will be => 16a + 22t = 11826

Hope this helps but I think it might be:
Part A: c=0.75p
the cost of shipping for 2 pounds
c=0.75p
c=0.75*2

Marla did 65 sit ups each day for one week.Use the distributive property to show an expression you can use to find the total num
poizon [28]
The distributive property <span> lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately first and then summing the products together.
Marla did 65 x 7 = 455 sit-ups during the week

65 sit-ups can be written as 60+5 sit ups or as 50+15 sit-ups or as 40+25 sit-ups (these are just examples)

Applying the distributive property:
Marla did: (60 x 7) + (5 x 7) = 455 sit-ups during the week, or
Marla did: (50 x 7) + (15 x 7) = 455 sit-ups during the week, or
Marla did: (40 x 7) + (25 x 7) = 455 sit-ups per week

You can try this with any two numbers whose sum is 65 and all will give you the same answer.
