Answer: 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pool in the drawing be represented by x.

Since scale drawing of a pool has scale of 1 in :4 ft and the actual pool is 16 ft wide, this can be represented in an equation as:

1/4 = x/16

Cross multiply

4 × x = 1 × 16

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

Therefore, the pool representation in the drawing is 4 inches

A spherical water tank holds 7,500 ft3 of water. What is the diameter of the tank?

Alisiya [41]

Answer: 2r=d

d=24.28590063

Step-by-step explanation:

vsphere=4/3pir^3

7500=4/3pir^3

times both sides by 3

22500=4pir^3

divide both sides by 4

5625=pir^3

divide bot sides by pi

1790.4931=r^3

cube root both sides

12.142950=r

2r=d

d=24.28590063 ft

Find the distance CD rounded to the nearest tenth

motikmotik

Answer:

CD ≈ 15.0

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate CD using the distance formula

d = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = C (7, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = D (- 8, - 5)

CD = $\sqrt{(-8-7)^2+(-5-(-4))^2}$

= $\sqrt{-15)^2+(-5+4)^2}$

= $\sqrt{225+(-1)^2}$

= $\sqrt{225+1}$

= $\sqrt{226}$

≈ 15.0 ( to the nearest tenth )
