The volume of the box when it's filled to 3 inches deep is 12×8×3 = 288 in³
The box is filled up to 1.5 inches from the top, that means the box is filled only
3-1.5 = 1.5 inches deep
The volume of the box when it's filled to 1.5 inches deep is 12×8×1.5 = 144 in³
The number of flours saved is 288 - 144 = 144 in³
Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5x+4=1/3x-8
add 8 to both sides and subtract 1/5x from both sides
4+8=1/3x-1/5x
12=5/15x-3/15x
12=2/15x
divide both sides by 2/15
12÷2/15=x
when dividing by a fraction, invert and multiply
12*15/2=x
90=x
CHECK:
1/5(90)+4=1/3(90)-8
18+4=30-8
22=22

Answer:
- rectangular prism: 288 ft³
- triangular prism: 72 ft³
- total: 360 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula ...
V = LWH . . . . . the product of length, width, height
This rectangular prism has a volume of ...
V = (12 ft)(6 ft)(4 ft) = 288 ft³ . . . . rectangular prism volume
__
The volume of a triangular prism is found from the formula ...
V = Bh
where B is the area of the triangular base, and h is the height of the prism (distance between the triangular bases). The triangular base area is found from ...
A = 1/2bh . . . . .where b is the base of the triangle, and h is its height.
Here, we have ...
B = 1/2(6 ft)(4 ft) = 12 ft²
V = Bh = (12 ft²)(6 ft) = 72 ft³ . . . . triangular prism volume
__
The total volume of the given geometry is the sum of the volumes of the parts:
aquarium volume = 288 ft³ +72 ft³ = 360 ft³
