Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cylinder is given by V = πr^2h
Since the content of the storage tank completely filled the 25 identical cylinders, this means that the volume of the 25 cylinders combined is equal to the volume of the storage tank.
25(πr^2h) = 235,500
πr^2h = 235,500/25 = 9,420
h = 9,420/(3.14 x 5^2) = 9,420/78.5 = 120.
Therefore, the height of the cylinderical containers is 120 in
So first create and define your variables:
Z = amount of zebra fish
N = amount of neon tetras
Now create your equations:
2z+2.15n=31.20
z+n=15
This is your system. There are multiple methods to use but in this problem I’ll use the substitution method by simplifying the bottom equation.
2z+2.15n=31.20
z=15-n
Now I’ll plug the bottom equation into the top one.
2(15-n)+2.15n=31.20
And just solve from here.
30-2n+2.15n=31.20
0.15n=1.20
n=8
So he bout 8 neon tetras, and 15-8= 7, so he bought 7 zebra fish
