Answer:

The two people should stand 40 feet from the center so that they can hear each other whisper

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question

Width of the gallery = 100 feet

Width = 2a

a = Width/2

a = 100/2 = 50 feet

Height of the gallery = b = 30 feet

Hence, the distance is

d² = a² - b²

d = √a² - b²

d = √50² - 30²

d = √2500 - 900

d = √1600

d = 40 feet

Hence, the two people should stand 40 feet from the center so that they can hear each other whisper.

lana [24]

Answer:

cost of the pool per cubic meters = $5

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangular pool has a dimension of 30 m by 20 m by 2 m. To know the cost of the pool per cubic meter we have to calculate the volume of the pool . Then divide the total cost of the pool by it volume.

volume of the rectangular pool = length × height × width

volume of the rectangular pool = 30 × 20 × 2

volume of the rectangular pool = 1200  m²

The cost of installation is $6000 . The volume of the pool is 1200 cubic meters.

cost per cubic meters = total cost of installation/volume

cost per cubic meters = 6000/1200

cost of the pool per cubic meters = $5
