The answer is 55 and 25 (25)x2=50, 50+5=(55), 55+25=80.
To make it easier, you calculate the volume of the first aquarium.
1st aquarium:
V = L x W x H
V = 8 x 9 x 13
V = 72 x 13
V = 936 in.
Rate: 936 in./2 min.
Now that you've got the volume and rate of the first aquarium, you can find how many inches of the aquarium is filled within a minute, which is also known as the unit rate. To do that, you have to divide both the numerator and denominator by their least common multiple, which is 2. 936 divided by 2 is 468 and 2 divided by 2 is 1.
So the unit rate is 468 in./1 min. Now that you've got the unit rate, you can find out how long it'll take to fill the second aquarium up by finding its volume first.
2nd aquarium:
V = L x W x H
V = 21 x 29 x 30
V = 609 x 30
V 18,270 inches
Calculations:
Now, you divide 18,270 by 468 to find how many minutes it will take to fill up the second aquarium. 18,270 divided by 468 is about 39 (the answer wasn't exact, so I said "about").
2nd aquarium's rate:
18,270 in./39 min.
As a result, it'll take about 39 minutes to fill up an aquarium measuring 21 inches by 29 inches by 30 inches using the same hose. I really hope I helped and that you understood my explanation! :) If I didn't, I'm sorry. I tried. :(
triangle on right is the same as the triangle on the left
use pythagorean theorem
hypotenuse will give to the sides of the rectangle
a^2 + b^2 = hypotenuse squared
10.4^2 = 108.16
15.3^2 = 234.09
342.25 = hypotenuse squared
take the square root in both sides
hypotenuse = the square root of 342.25 =
18.5
add up the areas of the 2 triangles and rectangle
triangle area is 1/2 times 10.4 times 15.3 =
79.56
2 triangles areas are 159.12
rectangle area is 18.5 × 7 = 129.5
159.12 + 129.5 = 288.62
answer 1 = 288.62
second question:
to get 1 side take the
square root of 702.25 which is
26.5
to get the perimeter
multiply 26.5 by 4 which is
106
answer 2 is choice B 106
