The interior dimensions of Mr. Tran's pet fish Mino fish tank are 4 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 2 feet high. The water level in

the tank is 1 feet high. All the water in this tank is poured (with Mino) into an empty second tank. If the interior dimensions of the second tank are 3 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 4 feet high, what is the height of the water in the second tank?

Answer:

The height of water in the second tank is 2ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the height of water in a second tank if the content of a first tank is poured into the second tank.

The plot twist to answering this question is that we need to note the volume of water in the first tank. Although the first tank has dimensions of 2ft by 3ft by 2ft height, the water in the tank only rose to a height of 1 feet.

Hence, to calculate the volume of the water in the first tank, the width and the length of the tank still remain the same, the only difference here is that we work with a height of 1 feet since the Water is not full.

Mathematically, the volume of water present in the tank will be;

V = l * b * h

V = 4 * 3 * 1 = 12 cubic feet

Now, this content is emptied into a second tank. Since the volume of water here is the same; this means;

12 cubic feet = 3 * 2 * h

We ignore the 4ft height as it is just the height of the tank and not the height of the water in the tank

6h = 12 cubic feet

h = 12/6 = 2 ft

Answer:

2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The question demands for us to find the height of water poured into the second tank from the first one.

Both tanks share the same volume but have different dimensions.

Tank A has the following dimensions:

Length is 4 feet long

Width is 3 feet wide

And also 2 feet high

Tank B has the dimensions below

Length is 3 feet long

Width is 2 feet wide

And has a height of 4 feet.

Let's now assume to not knowing the heights of both tanks

----- Tank A occupies a certain amount of water at 1 feet high with length 4 feet and width 3 feet,the area of this rectangular tank is 12 feet square.

----- Tank B occupies the same amount of water as Tank A and with a height unknown, but with a shared volume as that as Tank A and dimensions length and width as 3 and 2 feet respectively, the area of this rectangular tank will be 6 square feet which is twice as less as that of Tank A.

Height of water of Tank B is equal to 12/6 = 2 feet

Question 1 (Essay Worth 10 points) (01.02 MC) Part A: If (26)x = 1, what is the value of x? Explain your answer. (5 points) Part
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not clear. However, I will treat the question as:

(26)x = 1

(50)x = 1

and:

(2^6)^x = 1

(5^0)^x = 1

Solving: (26)x = 1  and  (50)x = 1

(26)x = 1

Divide both sides by 26

x = \frac{1}{26}

(50)x = 1

Divide both sides by 50

x = \frac{1}{50}

Solving (2^6)^x = 1 and (5^0)^x = 1

(2^6)^x = 1

Express 1 as 2^0

(2^6)^x = 2^0

Remove bracket

2^{6x} = 2^0

Cancel out 2

6x = 0

Divide both sides by 6

x = \frac{0}{6}

x = 0

(5^0)^x = 1

Express 1 as 5^0

(5^0)^x = 5^0

Cancel out 5^0

x = 1

Since the ratios for sides of triangles are the same, when the angles are the same, ? have been developed which show these ratio
salantis [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, if two triangles are similar, then all the three of their angles are congruent to each other and their corresponding sides are in the same proportion. This means that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal to each other.
