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.

Find the value of x from the given figure:​
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

60°

Step-by-step explanation:

2x and x are linear pair,

=> 2x + x = 180

=> 3x  = 180

=> x = 180/3

=> x = 60°

=>2x =120°

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Stephen's neighbors paid Stephen no more that $28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Stephen spent $5 of his earnings on snack.

He spent $17 in a new book.

He is left with no more than $6 left.

To describe how much Stephen's neighbors paid him.

Solution:

Let Stephen's earnings in dollars be = x

Amount left after spending on snacks in dollars = x-5

Amount left after spending on a new book in dollars = x-5-17 = x-22

The amount remaining is no more than $6.

Thus, the inequality representing the situation can be given as:

x-22\leq6

Solving for x

Adding 22 both sides.

x-22+22\leq6+22

x\leq 28

Thus, Stephen's neighbors paid Stephen no more that $28.

Two cones have their heights in the ratio 1 : 3 and the radius of their bases in the ratio 3 : 1, show that their volumes are in
Nuetrik [128]
<h2>\large\bold{\underline{\underline{Question:-}}}</h2>

Two cones have their heights in the ratio 1 : 3 and the radius of their bases in the ratio 3 : 1 show that their volumes are in the ratio 3 : 1.

<h2>\large\bold{\underline{\underline{Solution:-}}}</h2>

⇒ Ratio of heights of two cones = 1 : 3

⇒ Ratio of radius of their bases = 3 : 1

⇒ We know that V = 1/3πr²h

⇒ Ratio of their volume = V1 : V2

\underline{ \underline{ \sf{Let's \:  find  \: the  \: ratio  \: of \:  their  \: volumes:}}}

{ \implies{ \sf  {V _{1}  :  V_{2}}}}

{ \implies{ \sf{ \frac{1}{3} \pi \:  { r_{1}}^{2}  h_{1} :  \frac{1}{3}  \pi \:  { r_{2} }^{2}  h_{2}}}}

{ \implies{ \sf{ {r_{1}}^{2}  h_{1} :  { r_{2}}^{2} h_{2}}}}

{ \implies{ \sf{ \frac{ { r_{1} }^{2} }{ { r_{2} }^{2} }  :  \frac{ h_{2} }{ h_{1} } }}} \\

{ \implies{ \sf{ \frac{ {3}^{2} }{ {1}^{2} }  :  \frac{3}{1} }}} \\

{ \implies{ \sf{ \frac{9}{1} :  \frac{3}{1}  }}} \\

{ \implies{ \sf{3 : 1}}} \\

{ \therefore{ \sf{ \green{Ratio  \: of  \: their \:  volumes = 3 : 1}}}}
