Answer:

158.4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the volume of the tank

V = 30 \times 30 \times 80

V = 72000 cm^3

to convert this to m^3 we know that 1m = 100cm

V = 72000 cm^3 \times \left(\dfrac{1\,\text{m}}{100\,\text{cm}}\right)^3

V = 72000 cm^3 \times \left(\dfrac{1\,\text{m}^3}{100^3\,\text{cm}^3}\right)

the cm^3 cancel out.

V = \dfrac{72000}{100^3} m^3

V = 0.072\,m^3

by simply converting the side-lengths to meters beforehand can give you this answer directly:

V = 0.3 \times 0.3 \times 0.8 = 0.072 m^3

it is given that 1 meter cube of water weighs about 2200 pounds.

1\,m^3 = 2200 \,\text{lb}

multiply both sides with 0.072 to find our answer:

1\,m^3 \times 0.072 = 2200 \times 0.072 \,\text{lb}

0.072\,m^3 = 158.4 \,\text{lb}

hence the weight of the water in the tank would be 158.4 pounds!

If EB =4y-12 and ED= y+17, find the value of y. Then find ED,DB,EB.
ASHA 777 [7]

Given values of EB and ED are

EB = 4y-12, ED= y+17

And from the diagram, we can say that D is the midpoint of EB.

THerefore

2ED = EB

Substituting the values of EB and ED, we will get

2(y+17) = 4y-12 \\ 2y + 34 = 4y -12 \\ 34+12 = 4y-2y \\ 2y=46 \\ y=23

Therefore,

ED = y+17 = 23+17 = 40 \\ DB= ED =40 \\ EB= 2 ED = 2*40 =80
