The first thing we must do for this case is to rewrite the expression of the volume correctly.
We have then:
v = 0.95 * h ^ 2.9
Substituting the value of h we have:
v = 0.95 * (7.5) ^ 2.9
v = 327.6432831
round to the nearest tenth:
v = 327.6 feet ^ 3
Answer:
the amount of water in the container when h = 7.5 feet is:
v = 327.6 feet ^ 3

Answer:

$h = 12$

$x = 9$

$y= 16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Required

Find h, x and y

Let the base of the triangle be 15.

So, the area is:

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 15 * 20$

$i.e\ height = 20$

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 300$

$A = 150$

Let the base of the triangle be 25.

So, the area is:

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 25 * h$

$i.e\ height = h$

$A = \frac{1}{2} * 25h$

Substitute $A = 150$

$\frac{1}{2}*25h = 150$

Solve for h

$h = \frac{150 *2}{25}$

$h = 6 *2$

$h = 12$

Considering the smallest triangle

$Hypotenuse = 15$

So:

$15^2 = h^2 + x^2$

$15^2 = 12^2 + x^2$

This gives:

$15^2 - 12^2 = x^2$

$81 = x^2$

Take square roots

$9 =x$

$x = 9$

Solving for y

$x + y = 25$

$y= 25 - x$

$y= 25 - 9$

$y= 16$

You don’t need to tell me the answer, but could you tell me the formula on how to get the answer ?

steposvetlana [31]

Formula used: cos(x) = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

Hope this helped!

What are the zeros of the function defined by 2x + 11x- 6?

asambeis [7]

Note --> As you're writing 'zeroes' , I assume there is a typing mistake and you've given a Quadratic equation in the question

$f(x) = 2 {x}^{2} + 11x - 6 \\ \\ f(x) = (2x - 1)(x + 6) = 0$

Hence , the roots are 1/2 and -6
The graph attached confirms the same ,

Hope it helps you :)
