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

Answer:

So you first count how much times the numbers go up,then you add the number you get it is 6+ you add them with 13 and you get 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

So you first count how much times the numbers go up,then you add the numbers so 1 is not enough 2 is not enough 3 is not enough 4 is not enough 5 is not enough 6 is enough, so we add the six with the number that we are adding which is 13,then you get 19

olasank [31]
Given:
Cost to build a bookshelf = $20
Cost to build a table = $45
Amount available to spend = $600

Let x =  number of bookshelves built.
Let y =  number of tables built.

The total number of bookshelves and tables =  18.
Therefore
x + y = 18.
 That is,
 y = 18 - x                    (1)

The total amount available to build x bookshelves and y tables = $600. Therefore
20x + 45y = 600
That is (dividing through by 5),
4x + 9y = 120            (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
4x + 9(18 - x) = 120
4x + 162 - 9x = 120
-5x = -42
  x = 8.4
From (1),obtain
 y = 18 - 8.4 = 9.6

Because we cannot have fractional bookshelves and tables, we shall test values of x=8, 9 and y=9,10 for profit

Note: The profit is $60 per bookshelf and $100 per table.
If x = 8, then y = 18-8 = 10.
The profit = 8*60 + 10*100 =  $1480

If x = 9, then y = 18-9 = 9.
The profit = 9*60 + 9*100 = $1440

The choice of 8 bookshelves and 10 tables is more profitable.

Answer: 8 bookshelves and 10 tables.

A new car is available with standard or automatic transmission, two or four doors, and it is available in 10 exterior colors. Wh
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

<em>40</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of options available for transmission = 2 (Standard or Automatic)

Number of options for doors = 2 (2 doors or 4 doors)

Number of exterior colors available = 10

To find:

Total number of outcomes = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us calculate the number of outcomes for the transmission mode and number of doors options.

1. Standard - 2 doors

2. Standard - 4 doors

3. Automatic - 2 doors

4. Automatic - 4 doors

Number of outcomes possible = 4 (which is equal to number of transmission mode available multiplied by number of doors options i.e. 2\times 2)

Now, these 4 will be mapped with 10 different exterior colors.

Therefore total number of outcomes possible :

Number of transmission modes \times Number of doors options  \times Number of exterior colors

2 \times 2 \times 10 = <em>40</em>
