Question

Yolanda is planning to put a pool in her backyard. The scaled model below gives the reduced measures for diameter and depth. The diameter of a pool is 18 centimeters and the depth is 4 centimeters. Not drawn to scale The yard space is large enough to have a pool that has a diameter of 27 feet. If Yolanda wants to keep the pool in proportion to the model, what will be the depth of the pool?

Answer 1

Answer: 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the ratio of the depth to the diameter of the pool in the scale to find out the depth in the yard given the diameter in the yard.

The ratio of the depth to the diameter is;

= 4/18

Given a diameter of 27 feet in the yard, the depth in the yard will be;

= 4/18 * 27

= 6 feet
