Answer:

w = 7m

l =9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width

l = w+2

A = l*w

63 = (w+2) * w

63 = w^2 +2w

Subtract 63 from each side

0 = w^2 +2w - 63

Factor

What 2 numbers multiply to -63 and add to 2

9*-7 = -63

9-7 = 2

0 = (w +9) ( w-7)

Using the zero product property

w+9 =0     w-7 =0

w = -9        w = 7

Since we cannot have a negative length

w=7

l =w+2 =7+2 = 9

The radius of a cylindrical water tank is 4.5 ft, and its height is 8 ft. What is the volume of the tank?
Brums [2.3K]
The answer is 509 ft^3


Formula:
V = πr^2h
V = 3.14 * 4.5^2 * 8
V = 3.14 * 20.25 * 8
V = 508.68 ft^3

508.68 rounded to the nearest whole number is 509

So the volume of the cylinder is 509 ft^3

volume = 48 m^3

l*b*h = 48

12*h = 48

h = 4 m

baSe of prism will be made of l and b

so area is 12 m^2
