7. Brian has a pool that is 25 feet long and 15 wide. The pool can hold
1,875 square feet of water when filled to the top. How many feet deep
is the pool?
*Use the Volume formula
as'x is':

Answer 1

5ft

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Length of the pool = 25ft

Width of the pool = 15ft

Volume of water the pool can hold = 1875ft³ of water

Unknown:

Depth of the pool = ?

Solution:

The pool is in the shape of a cuboid.

The volume of a cuboid is given as;

Volume of a cuboid = L x width x depth

Insert the parameters and solve for the depth;

1875 = 25 x 15 x depth

depth =
`(1875)/(25 x 15)` = 5ft
