The swimming pool at the right is being filled with water. find the number of cubic feet that it will take to fill the swimming pool

The volume of the swimming pool when filled with water will be given by:
Volume=(L×W×H)+(1/2*B×H×L)+(L×W×H)
V=(14×12×8)+(1/2×16×8×12)+(5×16×12)
V=1344+768+960
V=3072 ft³

Thus the volume of water required will be 3072 ft³

It's like discovering the answer to a puzzle. the purpose in solving an equation is to find the value or values of the variable that makes it a true statement. any value of the variable that makes the equation true is called a solution to the equation.
