Answer:
current volume of the water = 785.714 in²
Height of new container = 10 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Radius of the container = 5 inches
Height of the container = 20 inches
Volume of the container = πR²H = (22/7) × 5² × 20 = 1571.428571428 in²
Since the container is half filled with water, volume of the water = 1571.428571428 ÷ 2 = 785.714 in²
b. Volume of cylinder = πR²H = volume of water from first container = 785.714 in²
Hence 785.714 = (22/7) × 5² × H
H = (785.714) ÷ [(22/7) × 25] = 10 inches
Height of new container = 10 inches
10% of 180 is 18, so over 2 years that is 20%, so 36 dollars.
