a) We have to calculate the height of the pad.

We know that the volume will be 4704 cubic feet.

We also know that the base of the pad is a square of side length 56 feet.

As the volume is the area of the base times the height, we can find the height by dividing the volume by the base area:

\begin{gathered} V=A_b\cdot h \\ h=\frac{V}{A_b}=\frac{4704\text{ ft}^3}{(56\text{ ft})^2}=\frac{4704}{3136}\text{ ft}=1.5\text{ ft} \end{gathered}

The height is 1.5 feet.

b) Now, we have a circular pad of which we know the height (1.5 feet) and the volume (4705 ft³). The area of the base will have to be the same as the are of the square: 3136 ft².

The area of this circular pad can be expressed as πD²/4, so we can calculate the diameter D as:

\begin{gathered} A=3136 \\ \frac{\pi D^2}{4} \\ D^2=3136*\frac{4}{\pi} \\ D^2=3136*\frac{4}{3.14} \\ D^2=3994.9045 \\ D=\sqrt{3994.9045} \\ D\approx63.21 \end{gathered}

The diameter is approximately 63.21 feet.

Answer:

a) The pad will be 1.5 feet thick

b) The diameter will be 63.21 feet.

H(x)=(x-3)^2
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a function is all the allowed x values that make the function defined. There is nothing to make this function undefined. So the domain is negative infinity to positive infinity. All those x values are in the domain. In order to show your work, just show yourself plugging in those numbers.

You get 9, 0, and 1
