Answer:

<u>The new height of the water is approximately 9.3 inches.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Measurements of the container:

Length = 20 inches

Width = 16 inches

Height = 12 inches

Amount of water drained from the container = 850 inches³

2. What is the new height of the water in inches?. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Let's calculate the volume of the container, as follows:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

Volume = 20 * 16 * 12

Volume = 3,840 inches³

Now, let's subtract the volume of the water drained:

Volume = 3,840 - 850 = 2,990 inches³

We do know the length and the width and can calculate the value of the new height, this way:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

2,990 = 20 * 16 * Height

320 * Height = 2,990

Height = 2,990/320

<u>Height = 9.3 (rounding to the nearest tenth)</u>

What is the area of a circle. Using 3.14 for. A circle with diameter of 8.4 ft.
ira [324]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First, let's find the radius. The radius is half of the diameter.

8.4/2=4.2

Here's how to find the area of a circle.

Square the radius.

4.2²=17.64

And multiply by pi (3.14 in our case)

17.64(3.14)=55.3896

We round to the nearest tenth, giving us an area of 55.4 ft²

Have a wonderful day! :D

Answer:

5 = |-5|

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it as a number line, like in the picture below. The absolute value is how far a number is from zero (0). If 5 is 5 away from zero, then the opposite of 5 (-5) is also 5 away from zero.

Refer to the picture below for an illustration:
