Find the are of the pool by dividing the volume by the depth:
1960 / 4 = 490
The pool is 490 square feet.
Area is found by multiplying the length by the width.
Let the width = X
We are told the length is 2.5X ( 2.5 times longer)
So we now have 2.5x * x = 490
2.5x * x = 2.5x^2
Now we have 2.5x^2 = 490
Divide both sides by 2.5:
x^2 = 490/2.5
x^2 = 196
find X by taking the square root of 196:
x = √196
x = 14
The width is 14 feet
The length is 2.5 * 14 = 35 feet
The circumference is 75.4 :)
185 * 17 = 3145 so that means 3145 / 17 = 185
The question might have some mistake since there are 2 multiplier of t. I found a similar question as follows:
The population P(t) of a culture of bacteria is given by P(t) = –1710t^2+ 92,000t + 10,000, where t is the time in hours since the culture was started. Determine the time at which the population is at a maximum. Round to the nearest hour.
Answer:
27 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of population P(t) = –1710t^2+ 92,000t + 10,000
Find the derivative of the function to find the critical value
dP/dt = -2(1710)t + 92000
= -3420t + 92000
Find the critical value by equating dP/dt = 0
-3420t + 92000 = 0
92000 = 3420t
t = 92000/3420 = 26.90
Check if it really have max value through 2nd derivative
d(dP)/dt^2 = -3420
2nd derivative is negative, hence it has maximum value
So, the time when it is maximum is 26.9 or 27 hours
