Answer:

324 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The surface area of a shape is the area of all the surfaces added up

The side surface area is 48 since 16 x 3 is 48. Since there are two side areas, we need to multiply 48 x 2 is 96

Now we need to do this for the other sides

the bottom and top areas are 96 square meters each so we multiply 96 by 2 which is 192

The front and back faces have an area of 18 square meters so we multiply 18 by 2 since there are two faces which are 36

Now we add all the values: 96+192+36 which is 324

So the surface area of the prism is 324 square meters

A pond at a hotel holds 4,290 gallons of water.

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

55 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the problem as an equation.

4290-78x=0

Where 'x' is each hour the pond is being drained.

Then, solve.

4290=78x Add 78x to each side of the equation

55=x Divide both sides by 78

MrMuchimi

Answer:

610,000

Step-by-step explanation:

14,000 would be the nearest ten thousandth but its is not over 15,000 so it would round down to 10,000 making the answer 610,000.

The width of a container is 5 feet less than its height. Its length is 1 foot longer than its height. The volume of the containe

juin [17]

The height of container is 8 feet

Solution:

Let "w" be the width of container

Let "l" be the length of container

Let "h" be the height of container

The width of a container is 5 feet less than its height

Therefore,

width = height - 5

w = h - 5 ------ eqn 1

Its length is 1 foot longer than its height

length = 1 + height

l = 1 + h ---------- eqn 2

The volume of container is given as:

$v = length \times width \times height$

Given that volume of the container is 216 cubic feet

$216 = l \times w \times h$

Substitute eqn 1 and eqn 2 in above formula

$216 = (1 + h) \times (h-5) \times h\\\\216 = (h+h^2)(h-5)\\\\216 = h^2-5h+h^3-5h^2\\\\216 = h^3-4h^2-5h\\\\h^3-4h^2-5h-216 = 0$

Solve by factoring

$(h-8)(h^2+4h+27) = 0$

Use the zero factor principle

If ab = 0 then a = 0 or b = 0 ( or both a = 0 and b = 0)

Therefore,

$h - 8 = 0\\\\h = 8$

Also,

$h^2+4h+27 = 0$

Solve by quadratic equation formula

$\text {For a quadratic equation } a x^{2}+b x+c=0, \text { where } a \neq 0\\\\x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

$\mathrm{For\:} a=1,\:b=4,\:c=27:\quad h=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{4^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:27}}{2\cdot \:1}$

$h = \frac{-4+\sqrt{4^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:27}}{2}=\frac{-4+\sqrt{92}i}{2}$

Therefore, on solving we get,

$h=-2+\sqrt{23}i,\:h=-2-\sqrt{23}i$

Thus solutions of "h" are:

h = 8

$h=-2+\sqrt{23}i,\:h=-2-\sqrt{23}i$

"h" cannot be a imaginary value

Thus the solution is h = 8

Thus the height of container is 8 feet
