you are constructing a concrete landing pad for a helicopter. you have 5046 cubic feet of concrete. if the landing pad is a square that is 58 feet on each side, how thick would the pad be?

Respuesta :

Given:

[tex]\begin{gathered} Volume=5046ft^3 \\ square-length=58ft \end{gathered}[/tex]

To Determine: The thickness of the pad

Solution

[tex]Volume=base-area\times height[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} Volume=(58ft)^2\times h \\ 5046ft^2=3364ft^2\times h \\ h=\frac{5046ft^2}{3364ft^2} \\ h=1.5ft \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the thickness of the pad is 1.5ft
