Answer:

There are <u>20,000 milligrams</u> chlorine in the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The chlorine per liter of water in the pool is 2.5 milligrams.

The  volume of water in the swimming pool is 8000 gallons.

Now, to find the quantity of chlorine in the pool.

Let the quantity of chlorine be x.

The gallons of water in the swimming pool = 8000.

The milligrams of chlorine per liter of water in the pool = 2.5.

According to question, the amount of chlorine in the swimming pool is proportional to the volume of water.

So, 2.5 mg of chlorine is equivalent to 1 liter.

Thus, x is equivalent to 8000.

Now, to get the quantity of chlorine by using cross multiplication method:

\frac{2.5}{1} =\frac{x}{8000}

<em>By cross multiplying we get:</em>

20000=x\\\\x=20,000\ mg.

Therefore, there are 20,000 milligram chlorine in the pool.

Find the missing dimension of each triangle described height 14 inches area 245 inches Square
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Given:
Triangle 
height 14 inches
area 245 inches square

Formula in finding the area of a triangle is:

Area = (height * base) / 2

The base is missing, so we need to compute its value using the given figures.

245 = (14 * b) / 2
245 * 2 = 14b
490 = 14b
490/14 = b
35 = b

The base is 35 inches.
