Algebra.Com's Answer #365140 by ptaylor(2198)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Volume of a rectangular acquarium = Length*Width*Height, or \n" ); document.write( "V=LWH; H=V/(LW)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, lets find the volume: \n" ); document.write( "Volume=900/(7.5)=120 cu ft \n" ); document.write( "Sooo, our equation to solve is: \n" ); document.write( "H=120/(4*6)=120/24=5ft\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps---ptaylor \n" ); document.write( " |
