<u>Answer:   </u>

Dimension of pool are length = 12 feet, width = 54 feet and depth = 6 feet.

<u>Solution :  </u>

Need to find dimensions of a swimming pool.

Depth of pool = 6 feet

Given that one side of the pool is 4.5 times longer than other.

Let’s say width of pool = x

So other side that is length of the pool = 4.5x  

\text { Volume of cuboid }=\text { length } \times \text { width } \times \text { depth }

\text { volume of swimming pool }=6 \times x \times 4.5 x

volume of pool = 27 x^{2} --- eqn 1

Also given that amount of water needed to fill the pool is 3888 cubic feet that is volume of pool is 3888 cubic feet. Substituting volume in equation (1)

3888=27 x^{2}

Now solving above equation for x.

x^{2}=\frac{3888}{27}=144=12^{2}

so x = 12

so width of pool = x = 12 feet  

By substituting the value of “x” we get length of pool

And length of pool = 4.5x = 4.5 \times 12 = 54 feet

Hence dimension of pool are length = 12 feet, width = 54 feet and depth = 6 feet.

Find the equation of the line that goes through the points (3,8) and (9,16).
Aneli [31]

Answer:

4x-3y+12=0 is required eqn

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, 3,8 be x1,y1

9,16 be x2,y2

Now,

Eqn of st.line is y-y1 = y2-y2/x2-x1 * (x-x1)

y-8 = 16-8/9-3 * (x-3)

y-8 = 4/3*(x-3)

3y-24 = 4x-12

4x-3y+12=0 is required eqn

The school that Mary goes to is selling tickets to a spring musical. On the first day of ticket sales
andrezito [222]

Answer:

The cost of one adult ticket is $13, and the price of one student ticket is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the cost of an adult ticket

y is the cost of a student ticket.

6 adult tickets and 1 student ticket for a total of $82

This means that

6x + y = 82

y = 82 - 6x

The school took in $51 on the second day by selling 3 adult tickets and 3 student tickets.

This means that

3x + 3y = 51

Simplifying by 3

x + y = 17

Since y = 82 - 6x

x + 82 - 6x = 17

-5x = -65

5x = 65

x = \frac{65}{5} = 13

y = 82 - 6x = 82 - 6*13 = 82-78 = 4

The cost of one adult ticket is $13, and the price of one student ticket is $4.
