This whole problem rests on one thing:
Do you know the formula for the volume of this kind of shape ?
If you do, then the problem is easy.  If you don't, then it's impossible.

This is the shape of a book, an ice cube, a brick, or a slab.

The volume is always

                          (length) x (width) x (height)           (in any order) .

They all have to be in the same unit, and then the volume
is in the cubic-(...) of that unit.

In this picture, there's a tiny hiccup with the units ... the length and
the width are in meters, but the height is in centimeters, so you need
to change that one to meters before you can multiply them.

Notice right above the picture, it reminds you that 

                                         (1 meter = 100 centimeters) .

So the height of the slab (10 cm) is the same as 0.1 meter.

Now you have all 3 of the dimensions in meters, so you're
ready to multiply them and get the volume.

           Volume  =  (length) x (width) x (height) 

                         =  ( 8 m )  x  ( 6 m )  x  ( 0.1 m )

                         =            4.8 cubic meters .

Question: 
Does Meg have enough concrete to make the slab
with the dimensions shown ?

Answer:  Yes .

Explanation:
Meg mixed 5 cubic meters of concrete.
She needs 4.8 cubic meters to pour the floor with those dimensions.
She has enough concrete to do the job.
All she needs is the whole football team to come over and help her
     pour, smooth, and finish it.  Concrete is hard hard work !

An aquarium with a square base has no top. There is a metal frame. Glass costs 8 dollars/m^2 and the frame costs 7 dollars/m. Th
Irina-Kira [14]
Given that the volume of the aquarium is 20m^3.

Volume = Area of Base x height

Area of Base = Volume / height = 20/h

Given that the aquarium has a square base.

Area of square = l^2

Thus, the length of the base of the aquarium is \sqrt{area \ of \ base} = \sqrt{ \frac{20}{h} }

The frame is to cover 8 sides with the length equal to the length of the base and 4 sides with the length of the height.

Thus, the total perimeter of the frame is given by 8\sqrt{\frac{20}{h}}+4h= \sqrt{64\left(\frac{20}{h}\right)}+4h = \sqrt{\frac{1,280}{h}}+4h

Area of the four side faces of the aquarium is 4 times the length of the base times the height = 4\times\sqrt{ \frac{20}{h} }\times h=\sqrt{16\left(\frac{20}{h}\right)h^2}=\sqrt{320h}

Total area to be covered by grass is the base and the four side faces and is given by \frac{20}{h}+\sqrt{320h}

Cost of the entire metal frame = 7\left(\sqrt{\frac{1,280}{h}}+4h\right)= \sqrt{49\left(\frac{1,280}{h}\right)}+7(4h) = \sqrt{\frac{62,720}{h}}+28h

Cost of the entire grass = 8\left(\frac{20}{h}+\sqrt{320h}\right)=\frac{160}{h}+\sqrt{64(320h)}=\frac{160}{h}+\sqrt{20,480h

Therefore, total cost in terms of the height, h, is given by

C=\sqrt{\frac{62,720}{h}}+28h+\frac{160}{h}+\sqrt{20,480h
