Johnny has a toy tent, as seen below. The area of the base is 60 in2. The height is 8 inches. Calculate the maximum amount of water that will fill his tent.

the tent can hold 8.66 lb of water (or 240 in³ of it)

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that the tent base is a rectangular area , and the vertical cross section is triangular , then the volume of the tent will be:

Volume of the tent = Area* height/2 = 60 in² * 8 in / 2 = 240 in³

assuming the density of water as 62.4 lb/ft³ then

mass of water = density * volume = 62.4 lb/ft³ * 240 in³ * (1 ft / 12 in)³ = 8.66 lb

then the tent can hold 8.66 lb of water (or 240 in³ of it)

for a it would be 24 children.

for b i don't understand the question. is it saying for each individual person they pick 5 reds to 7 greens or is it the whole group. clarify and i hope this can you.

step-by-step explanation:

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
