Let x=height. then base is x+4. plug what we know into the formula for the area of a triangle

A=½bh

16=½*(x+4)*(x)

32=x²+4x

x²+4x-32=0
(x+8)(x-4)=0
so x can be-8 our 4. when we plug-8 in for x we get a negative height. since a triangle cannot have a negative side length we discard-8 and try 4. height=4 and base=8

The sea turtle habitat at the zoo is made by connecting two large aquariums. The first aquarium is 6\text { m}6 m6, space, m lon
iren [92.7K]

First aquarium dimensions:

Length = 6 m.

Width = 4 m and

Height = 2 meter.

Second aquarium dimensions:

Length = 8 m.

Width = 9 m and

Height = 3 meter.

We know formula for volume of a cuboidal box = Length*Width*Height.

Plugging values of length, width and height of first aquarium in formula of volume. We get

V1 = 6*4*2 = 48 m^3.

Plugging values of length, width and height of second aquarium in formula of volume. We get

V2 = 8*9*3 = 216 m^3.

In order to find the total cubic meters of space do the sea turtles have in their habitat, we need to add both volumes.

Therefore, Total voulme of both aquarium = V1 +V2 = 48+216 = 264 m^3.

Therefore, total 264 m^3 cubic meters of space the sea turtles have in their habitat.
