To find the missing dimension you will use the formula for finding the volume of a prism and solve for the missing dimension.  In this case 2ft is how deep the pool is and you will solve for the width of the pool.

V = Bh, where B is the area of the base.  In this case, use the area of a trapezoid formula.

286 = 1/2h(8 +13)2
<u>286</u> = <u>21h</u>
21      21
h = 13.6

The width of the wading pool is approximately 13.6 feet.

K  - scale factor
a = 8 1/2
b = 11
a₁ = 1 7/10
b₁ = 2 1/5


k = \frac{a_1}{a}=\frac{b_1}b\\\\\\\frac{a_1}{a}=\dfrac{1 \frac{7}{10}}{8\frac12}=1 \frac{7}{10}:8\frac12=\frac{17}{10}:\frac{17}2=\frac{17}{10}\cdot\frac2{17}=\frac15\cdot\frac11=\frac15\\\\\\\frac{b_1}{b}=\dfrac{2 \frac{1}{5}}{11}=2\frac15:11=\frac{11}{5}\cdot\frac1{11}=\frac15\cdot\frac11=\frac15 \\\\\\\frac{a_1}{a}=\frac{b_1}b=\frac15\ \ \ \implies\ \ \ k=\frac15

Find the value of x round to the nearest tenth
Leto [7]

Answer:

58.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula c=\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}

solving for x (b)

b=\sqrt{c^{2}-a^{2} = \sqrt{61^{2}-17^{2} ≈58.58327

and 58.58327 rounds to 58.6
