Estimate the weight of water in pounds in a fish tank with width 14 ft, length 32 ft, and height 24 ft. The density of water is

about 8.33 pounds per gallon. One gallon of water is approximately 0.134 cubic feet. Round to the nearest tenth.

Find the volume of the tank by using the equation V = l x w x h

Volume = 14 x 32 x 24 = 10,752 cubic feet

now calculate the number of gallons by dividing total cubic feet by 0.134:

10,752 / 0.134 = 80,238.81 gallons

now multiply the number of gallons by the weight per gallon:

80,238.81 x 8.33 = 668,389.287 pounds

rounded to nearest tenth = 668,389.3 pounds total

What is the measure of XYZ

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc XZ is twice the measure of the inscribed angle XYZ , that is

arc XZ = 2 × 60° = 120°

The complete circumference = 360° , thus

arc XYZ = 360° - arc XZ = 360° - 120° = 240° → B

Find the distance between a point (– 2, 3 – 4) and its image on the plane x+y+z=3 measured across a line (x + 2)/3 = (2y + 3)/4

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Distance of the point from its image = 8.56 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Co-ordinates of point is (-2, 3,-4)

Let's say

$x_1\ =\ -2$

$y_1\ =\ 3$

$z_1\ =\ -4$

Distance is measure across the line

$\dfrac{x+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2y+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3z+4}{5}$

So, we can write

$\dfrac{x-x_1+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2(y-y_1)+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3(z-z_1)+4}{5}\ =\ k$

$=>\ \dfrac{x-(-2)+2}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2(y-3)+3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3(z-(-4))+4}{5}\ =\ k$

$=>\ \dfrac{x+4}{3}\ =\ \dfrac{2y-3}{4}\ =\ \dfrac{3z+16}{5}\ =\ k$

$=>\ x\ =\ 3k-4,\ y\ =\ \dfrac{4k+3}{2},\ z\ =\ \dfrac{5k-16}{3}$

Since, the equation of plane is given by

x+y+z=3

The point which intersect the point will satisfy the equation of plane.

So, we can write

$3k-4+\dfrac{4k+3}{2}+\dfrac{5k-16}{3}\ =\ 3$

$=>6(3k-4)+3(4k+3)+2(5k-16)\ =\ 18$

$=>18k-24+12k+9+10k-32\ =\ 18$

$=>\ k\ =\dfrac{13}{8}$

So,

$x\ =\ 3k-4$

$=\ 3\times \dfrac{13}{8}-4$

$=\ \dfrac{7}{4}$

$y\ =\ \dfrac{4k+3}{2}$

$=\ \dfrac{4\times \dfrac{13}{8}+3}{2}$

$=\ \dfrac{19}{4}$

$z\ =\ \dfrac{5k-16}{3}$

$=\ \dfrac{5\times \dfrac{13}{8}-16}{3}$

$=\ \dfrac{-21}{8}$

Now, the distance of point from the plane is given by,

$d\ =\ \sqrt{(x-x_1)^2+(y-y_1)^2+(z-z_1)^2}$

$=\ \sqrt{(-2-\dfrac{7}{4})^2+(3-\dfrac{19}{4})^2+(-4+\dfrac{21}{8})^2}$

$=\ \sqrt{(\dfrac{-15}{4})^2+(\dfrac{-7}{4})^2+(\dfrac{9}{8})^2}$

$=\ \sqrt{\dfrac{225}{16}+\dfrac{49}{16}+\dfrac{81}{64}}$

$=\ \sqrt{\dfrac{1177}{64}}$

$=\ 4.28$

So, the distance of the point from its image can be given by,

D = 2d = 2 x 4.28

= 8.56 unit

So, the distance of a point from it's image is 8.56 units.

An architect increases the radius of a circle window by 20 percent. By what percent

ale4655 [162]

Answer: 44%

Step-by-step explanation:

For a circle of radius R, the area is written as:

A = pi*R^2

Where pi = 3.14

If we increase the radius by 20%, the new radius will be:

R´ = R + 0.20*R = 1.20*R

The new area will be:

A´ = pi*(1.20*R)^2 = (1.20)^2*pi*R^2

= 1.44*pi*R^2

And pi*R^2 = A, the original area, then_

A´ = 1.44*A = A + 0.44*A

This means that the percentage in which the area increased is:

0.44*100% = 44%
