Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cake shared=1/2

Pete share=x

Bill= twice as much as Pete

=2x

Pete's share+ Bill's share=total share

x+2x=1/2

3x=1/2

x=1/2÷3

x=1/2×1/3

=1/6

Pete's share=x=1/6

Bill's share=2x

=2(1/6)

=2/6

=1/3

HELP HELP ME PLEASE!!!

Use the cone formula:
$V = \pi r^{2} \frac{h}{3}$
And so:
$Area = \pi * 150^{2} * \frac{240}{3} = 5654866.7 inches^{2}$
5654866.7 / 12000 = 471,
So the answer is 471 weeks.

Hope this helps.
