Answer:

6433.98 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find what 25% of the tank's capacity is, we know to know the full capacity of the tank then take 25% of that.  The volume formula for a right circular cone is

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

We have all the values we need for that:

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi (16)^2(96)

This gives us a volume of 25735.93 cubic feet total.

25% of that:

.25 × 25735.93 = 6433.98 ft

Answer:

The height of the water is 60.5\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the volume of the tank

The volume of the inverted right circular cone is equal to

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h

we have

r=16\ ft

h=96\ ft

substitute

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi (16)^{2} (96)

V=8,192\pi\ ft^{3}

step 2

Find the 25% of the tank’s capacity

V=(0.25)*8,192\pi=2,048\pi\ ft^{3}

step 3

Find the height, of the water in the tank  

Let

h ----> the height of the water  

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

\frac{R}{H}=\frac{r}{h}

substitute

\frac{16}{96}=\frac{r}{h}\\ \\r= \frac{h}{6}

where

r is the radius of the smaller cone of the figure

h is the height of the smaller cone of the figure

R is the radius of the circular base of tank

H is the height of the tank

we  have

V=2,048\pi\ ft^{3} -----> volume of the smaller cone

substitute

2,048\pi=\frac{1}{3}\pi (\frac{h}{6})^{2}h

Simplify

221,184=h^{3}

h=60.5\ ft

F(x)=1256(1.24)^x Identify the initial value.
Mumz [18]

Answer:

1256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function F(x)=1256(1.24)^x, the initial value occurs at x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into the function;

F(0)=1256(1.24)^0

f(0) = 1256(1) (any value raise to sero is 1)

f(0) = 1256

hence the initial value is 1256

The company charges $5 per sq ft, AND has a minimum charge of 3 sq ft per order (meaning if a customer orders something SMALLER
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

15 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

12 inches = 1 ft

so 12 inch by 12 inches  is 1 ft * 1 ft

1 ft* 1 ft

1 ft^2

This is smaller than 3 ft^2 so they will get charged for 3 ft^2

3 ft^2 = 3 ft^2 * $5 / ft^2 = 15 dollars
