Answer: Option C. 8,064 pounds
Solution:
Unit weight: U=63 pounds/foot^3
Total Weight: W=?
W=U*V
Volume: V
Length: l=8 feet
Width: w=4 feet
Height: h=4 feet
V=l*w*h
Replacing the knwon values in the formula above:
V=(8 feet)*(4 feet)*(4 feet)
V=128 feet^3
Replacing in the formula of total Weight:
W=U*V
W=(63 pounds/foot^3)*(128 feet^3)
W=8,064 pounds
3 > 1
(4^0 is one)
3 is greater than 4^0
Pretty simple.

Have you ever been at the grocery store and stood, staring, at two different sizes of the same item wondering which one is the better deal? If so, you are not alone. A UNIT RATE could help you out when this happens and make your purchasing decision an easy one.
In this lesson, you will learn what UNIT RATES are and how to apply them in everyday comparison situations. Click the links below and complete the appropriate sections of the Unit Rates handout.

Answer:
x = 240 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
The angle of depression is 30 degrees from the bottom of the boat to a deep sea diver at the depth of 120 ft.
We need to find the distance x the diver must swim up to the boat. It can be calculate by applying trigonometry as follows :
So, the distance the diver must swim up to the boat is 240 feet.
