A) What's the volume of this fish tank? Show all work and express your answer as a mixed number in its most simplified form!
 By definition we have that the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:
 V = (w) * (l) * (h)
 Where,
 w: width
 l: long
 h: height
 We then have to replace the values:
 V = (7) * (5.5) * (2.5)
 V = 96.25 in ^ 3
 Equivalently:
 V = 96 1/4 in ^ 3


 B) Could this fish tank hold 100 in³ of water? Answer yes or no, then explain why in one or more sentences.

 No, this fish tank could not hold 100 in³ of water.
 This is because the prism volume (part A) is less than 100 in ^ 3.
 In other words;
 96 1/4 in ^ 3 <100 in ^ 3

Answer:

  34

Step-by-step explanation:

Maybe you want to evaluate ...

  16 - 14 ÷ 2 + (3 +2)²

The parentheses are evaluated first.

  16 -14÷2 +5²

Then the exponential term.

  16 -14÷2 +25

The division is evaluated next.

  16 -7 +25

Finally, the sum is evaluated.

  = 9 +25

  = 34
