The question is asking for the cubic feet inside the prism, which means it wants the volume.

The volume equation is:
Volume= length x width x height

The issue is: the measurements of the prism are given to us in inches, while the problem asks for feet. We just need to convert each measurement, by dividing each by 12, since there are 12 inches per foot.
40 inches/12=3.33 feet
45 inches/12=3.75 feet
30 inches/12=2.5 feet

Now, we just have to plug in the numbers we found to solve for the volume.
V=(3.33 feet)(3.75 feet)(2.5 feet)
V=31.22 cubic feet

The approximate dimensions of an olympic size swimming pool are 164ft by 82ft by 6ft?what is the volume?

harkovskaia [24]

To find the volume multiply the length by the width by the depth.

Volume = 164 x 82 x 6 = 80,688 cubic feet.

Oil leaked from a tank at a rate of r(t) liters per hour. the rate decreased as time passed, and values of the rate at two hour

Galina-37 [17]

The given data is
t, h: 0 2 4 6 8 10
r(t), L/h: 8.6 7.9 6.8 6.4 5.7 5.3

The lower and upper estimates for the total amount that leaked may be computed as the Left and Right Riemann sums.

The shape of the graph of r versus will determine which of the two sums yields an upper or lower sum.
The plot of the graph is shown below.

The Left Riemann sum is
Sl = 2*(8.6+7.9+6.8+6.4+5.7) = 70.8 L

The Right Riemann sum is
Sr = 2*(7.9+6.8+6.4+5.7+5.3) = 64.2 L

Answer:
The lower estimate for oil leakage is 64.2 L
The upper estimate for oil leakage is 70.8 L
