Answer:
3000 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Initial Ascent to steady altitude = 35,000 feets
Descent to steady altitude = 32,000 feets
Number of feets the plane descend :
(Initial ascent to steady altitude - descent to steady altitude)
(35000 - 32000) feets = 3,000 feets
The hint says that volume of a rectangular solid = l*w*h, where l = length, w = width, and h = height. Use this to solve for the height of the solid by plugging in the numbers you know.
You know that length, l = 2cm, width, w = 8cm, and, *EDITED* volume = 160 cm^3. Plug these values into the equation for volume (the hint) and solve for h, the height:
Volume = lwh
160 = (2)(8)(h)
160 = 16h
h = 10cm
-------
Answer: The height is 10 cm
Off topic, I like your username :] good luck with whomever answers though <33
