Vicente has a prism-like water tank whose base area is 1.2 square meters. He bought 6 goldfish at the store, and the store owner

told him to make sure their density in the tank isn't more than 4 fish per cubic meter. Vicente needs to figure out how high to fill the water in the tank.
What is the lowest possible height so the fish aren't too crowded?

Answer:

  • 1.25 m

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • Base = 1.2 m²
  • Height = h
  • Number of fish = 6
  • Density = 4 fish/m³

<u>Minimum volume required:</u>

  • 6/4 = 1.5 m³

<u>Lowest water height:</u>

  • V= bh
  • h = V/b
  • h = 1.5/1.2 = 1.25 m

What are the values of sin α and tan α, if:<br> cosα=0.6
olganol [36]

Positive cosine is first or fourth quadrant.  So we don't know the sign of the sine or the tangent.

Everybody's favorite right triangle is 3/4/5 and here we have

\left(\dfrac 3 5 \right)^2 + \left(\dfrac 4 5 \right)^2 = 1

So if

\cos \alpha = 0.6 = \dfrac 3 5

then

\sin \alpha = \pm \dfrac{4}{5} = \pm 0.8

and

\tan \alpha = \dfrac{\sin \alpha}{\cos \alpha} = \dfrac{\pm 0.8}{0.6}=\pm \dfrac 4 3

If the ratio of purple marbles to orange marbles is 3 to 8, how many orange marbles will I have if I have 48 purple marbles?
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

You will have 128 orange marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as an equation

Variable x = number of orange marbles

3/8 = 48/x

Cross multiply

3 × x = 8 × 48

3x = 384

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable

3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3

1x = 128

x = 128

128 orange marbles

Check work:

Substitute the variable x for the answer

3/8 = 48/128

Cross multiply

3 × 128 = 8 × 48

384 = 384

If the numbers equal, the answer is correct
