Final answer:

Geoff Dennis's Pacific cod weighed 93.5 pounds, which is twice the weight of Dusty Hoover's Atlantic cod of 46.75 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dusty Hoover caught an Atlantic cod that weighed 46.75 pounds. To find out how much Geoff Dennis's Pacific cod weighed, we need to calculate 2 times the weight of Dusty's Atlantic cod. The calculation would be:

46.75 pounds (weight of the Atlantic cod) x 2 (since Geoff's Pacific cod weighed twice as much) = 93.5 pounds.

Therefore, Geoff Dennis's Pacific cod weighed 93.5 pounds.
