Tina's aquarium has a capacity of 40 gallons or water. She plans to stock her aquarium with 0.25 inches of fish per quart of cap

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The number of mollies fishes in the aquarium is 20 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The capacity of aquarium = 40 gallons

∵ 1 gallon = 4 quart

∴ 40 gallons = 4 × 40 = 160 quart

Now, According to question

0.25 inches of fish required 1 quart capacity

I.e for 1 quart capacity , 0.25 inches fish

So. for 160 quart capacity , 0.25 × 160 = 40 inches fishes

Now the size of mollies fish = 2 inches

Then , number of mollies fish = $\dfrac{\textrm total size of fishes}{\textrm size of mollies fish}$

I.e Number of mollies fish = $\frac{40}{2}$ = 20

Hence The number of mollies fishes in the aquarium is 20 . Answer

You want to test the effect of light on the distribution of Artemia in your 35cm long testing chamber. If you measure the light

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

64.3 lumens

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Length of the testing chamber = 35 cm

Light at one end = 10 lumens

Light at other end = 200 lumens

now,

since the variation is linear,

therefore, the gradient of the variation

= $\frac{200-10}{35}$

= 5.43

also,

the darkest end is the end with 10 lumens

therefore,

The lumens at 10 cm from the darkest end

= 10 + 5.43(10)

= 10 + 54.3

= 64.3 lumens
