Answer 1

2 m

Explanation:

Answer 2

h = 2m

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of pool, l = 20 m

Width of the pool, b = 36.8 m

The pool contains 1472 m³ of water.

We need to find how deep is the water in the pool.

The pool is in the shape of right rectangular prism. The volume of right rectangular prism is given by :

V = lbh

h is depth of water

`h=(V)/(lb)\\\\h=(1472)/(20* 36.8)\\\\h=2\ m`

Hence, water is 2 m deep in the pool.
