Answer the questions

Answer 1

10) 1 gallon of water for every inch of the fish's body length.
a) 2 1/2 inches long fish needs 2 1/2 gallon of water.
b) tank: l = 7 inches ; w = 5 inches; h = 7 ; volume = 7in * 5in * 7in = 245 in³
c) no. her fish tank is not large enough for the fish.
volume of 1 gallon of water is 231 in³, water needed is 2 1/2 gallon, so 5/2 * 231 in³ = 577.50 in³ volume.

11) volume = 7in * 3.5in * 1.75 in = 42.875 in³ 
weight of the brick = 0.1 pound per cubic inch ⇒ 42.875 in³ * 0.1 lb = 4.2875 pounds
weight of the gold bar = 0.7 pound per cubic inch ⇒ 42.875 in³ * 0.7 lb = 30.0125 pounds

12) l = 55cm ; w = 40cm ; h = 30 cm
volume = 55cm * 40cm * 30cm = 66,000 cm³
