Let
x-------> <span>the length of the pond
</span>y-------> the  width of the pond

we know that
[volume of the pond]=area of the base*deep
area of the base=volume/deep
volume=72000 in³
deep=24 in
area of the base=72000/24------> 3000 in²

area of the base=x*y
3000=x*y-------> equation 1
x=2y-----> equation 2

substitute equation 2 in equation 1
3000=[2y]*y------> 2y²=3000-----> y²=1500------> y=38.7 in
x=2y----> x=2*38.7----> x=77.4 in

the answer is
the length of the pond is 77.4 in
the  width of the pond is 38.7 in

Determine how long it will take an object to rotate through 6.9 revolutions at an angular velocity of 3.1 radians per second. Us
gregori [183]

Answer: 13 . 99 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find how long it will take an object to rotate through 6.9 revolutions at an angular velocity is given as :

t = 2π x number of revolutions / angular velocity

Therefore :

t = 2π x 6.9 / 3.1

t = 2 x 3.142 x 6.9 / 3.1

t = 43.3596/3.1

t = 13. 98696774194

to the nearest tenth

t = 13. 99s

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-6,-8) and has a slope of 1/3​
Arturiano [62]

y + 8 = 1/3 (x+6)

With the given information, we can use the point-slope formula, , to write the equation of the line. Substitute values for the  , , and  in the formula to do so.

The  represents the slope, so substitute  in its place. The  and  represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, so substitute -6 for  and -8 for . This gives the following answer and equation (just make sure to convert the double negatives into positives:
