An open rectangular tank that is 4m long, 2m wide and 4.8m high, is initially three quarters filled with water.
\n" ); document.write( " Find the depth of water in tank after 4000 liters of water are added to.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "4 * 2 * 4.8 = 38.4 cu/m is the vol of the tank
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( ".75 * 38.4 = 28.8 cu/m is 3/4 of the volume which is filled with water
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "4000/1000 = 4 cubic meters
\n" ); document.write( "therefore
\n" ); document.write( "28.8 + 4 = 32.8 cu/meters after 4000 liters are added
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "let h = the height of the water after 4000 liters is added
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "4 * 2 * h = 32.8
\n" ); document.write( "8h = 32.8
\n" ); document.write( "h = 32.8/8
\n" ); document.write( "h = 4.1 meters is the height of the water
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
