Since this is a two point answer,
remember you will need an answer to the question and
then an explanation to support your answer.
For the first point, be sure to give the answer
to the question.
The school will have enough money to fill their swimming
pool at $.02 per cubic foot.
(1
point)
For the second point, you would explain how you
found your answer to be true.
You need to find the volume of the pool and how much
water is needed to fill the pool. To find the volume
of the pool you begin with the formula and substitute
for the variables.
V = l x w x h
V = 90 x 42 x 7.5
V = 28350 cubic feet
The pool requires 28350 cubic feet of water to be
full. The next step is to find out how much filling
the pool costs when a cubic foot of water costs $.02.
To find this you multiply your total number of cubic
feet needed by $.02.
28350 x .02
567
You just found out that it will cost the school $567
to fill the pool this year which is under budget so
they can fill the pool. Maybe with the leftover money
they can buy some snorkels and flippers!
Your 2nd point would be determined by how
well you explain your steps above support your answer
of yes, to the question. |
