Answer:

the volume of sand is 50 ft^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, rectangular prism.

Given data

Length  l= 4 ft Width w= 5ft\\Height h = 3ft

if the sandbox is filled with sand of 2\frac{1}{2 } ft deep the volume of the sand in the box will be calculated based on the the depth of the sand

converting the depth of sand from mixed fraction to proper fraction we have 2\frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

the expression for the volume of a rectangular prism is

volume of sand = length * width* height

substituting our data into the expression we have

volume of sand= 5*4 * \frac{5}{2} \\volume of sand = \frac{100}{2} \\volume of sand = 50 ft^{3}

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.

<span>(t) = 0 gives
</span><span>-24t + 60 = 0
</span><span>t = 2.5
</span><span>For this t, the second derivative s"(t) = -24 is negative. And so, s(t) is maximum for t = 2.5.
</span><span>Maximum height is S = -12(2.5)^2 + 60(2.5) +8 = 233ft</span>
