A shipping container is in the shape of a right rectangular prism with a length of 8 feet, a width of 3.5 feet, and a height of 14.5 feet. The container is completely filled with contents that weigh, on average, 0.65 pound per cubic foot. What is the weight of the contents in the container, to the nearest pound?

Volume = 8 * 3.5 * 14.5 =

406 cubic feet

.65 pounds / cubic foot * 406 =

263.9 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you

78.59 is the mean
