The swimming pool is empty.
Water from 3 water tankers is going to be put into the pool.
There are 20000 litres of water in each water tanker.
Sam thinks that the surface of the water in the pool will be 10 cm below the top of the pool.
Is Sam correct?

  Sam is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the attachment, the "base" (front face) of this prism can be divided into a rectangle and a trapezoid. The relevant area formulas are ...

  A = LW . . . . area of a rectangle of length L and width W

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h . . . . area with parallel bases b1 and b2 and height h

__

The rectangle portion of the "base" of the pool has area ...

  A = (10 m)(1 m) = 10 m²

The trapezoid portion of the "base" of the pool has area ...

  A = 1/2(6 m +2 m)(1 m) = 4 m²

Then the "base" area is ...

  B = 10 m² +4 m² = 14 m²

__

The volume of the prism is given by ...

  V = Bh . . . . where B is the base area and h is the distance between bases

  V = (14 m²)(5 m) = 70 m³

We are told that 1 m³ = 1000 L and that 3 tankers of 20,000 L each are emptied into the pool. That leaves an unfilled volume of ...

  70 m³ -3×(20 m³) = 10 m³ . . . . unfilled volume

__

The surface area of the pool is ...

  A = LW = (10 m)(5 m) = 50 m²

So the unfilled volume has a height of ...

  V = Bh

  10 m³ = (50 m²)h

  h = (10/50) m = 20/100 m = 20 cm . . . . . the height of the unfilled space

The water in the pool will be 20 cm below the top, not 10 cm. Sam is not correct.
