Suppose an aquarium has a length of 4 feet, a width of 2 feet, and is filled with water to a depth of 9 feet. A reef is placed i
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The information that we kow about the shape of the aquarium:
length:
width:
when the reef is submerged, the water level rises 3 feet. The volume that those 3 ft represent in the aquarium will be the volume of the reef.
Thus, we calculate the volume of water "addition" with the same length and width as the aquarium but with a deep of 3 feet (thi is because the reef caused the water to rise 3 feet), and this is the volume of the reef that was added to the aquarium:
The volume of the stone is

The area of the trapezoid is 20 in².
Solution:
Given data:
Length of the bottom base = 7 in
Length of the top base = 3 in
Height of the trapezoid = 4 in
Step 1: Area of the trapezoid formula,
Step 2: Substitute the given values in the formula.
Step 3: Add 7 and 3.
Step 4: Divide 10 by 2, we get
Step 5: Multiply 5 by 4, we get
A = 20 in²
The area given in the picture is wrong.
The area of the trapezoid is 20 in².
