Hanna's Volume Scribe Post

18. Suki has 30 small linking cubes.

a) She wants to use 18 of them to make a large cube. Is this possible? Why or why not?

b) What number of linking cubes would she use to construct the largest cube she can
possibly make?


My Answers

a) It is not possble to make a large cube with only 18 linking cube because there isn't a whole number that can make 18 when cubed. To get 18, each side of the cube should have 2.6207413942088964 cubes.


b) v = s x s x s
v =1y x 1y x 1y
v = 1y³

v = s x s x s
v = 2 x 2 x 2
v = 8³

v = s x s x s
v = 3 x 3 x 3
v = 27³

v = s x s x s
v = 4 x 4 x 4
v = 64³

The largest cube Suki can make with only 30 linking cubes uses 27 cubes.


19. Melissa has three glass vases. She wants to use one as a decorative fish tank for Harvey the
guppy. Which will give Harvey the most water to swim in?

Cube Tank

v = s x s x s
v = 7cm x 7cm x 7cm
v= 343cm³

Rectangular Prism Tank

v = l x w x h
v = 10cm x 9cm x 4cm
v = 360cm³

Triangular Prism Tank

v = b x h(1) / 2 x h(2)
v = 7cm x 5cm / 2 x 21cm
v = 367.5cm³

The triangular prism tank can contain the most water.

Cylinder Volume and Volume Problems


a) r = d ÷ 2
r = 2m ÷ 2
r = 1m

v = π x r² x h
v = 3.14 x 1² x 0.6

v = 1.884m³

b) h = v ÷ a of b

h = 1.256 ÷ 3.14

h = 0.4m



c) v = pi x r² x h

v = 3.14 x 1² x 0.2

v = 0.628m³





d ÷ 2

r = 120 ÷ 2
r = 60cm


a) v = pi x r² x h

v = 3.14 x 60² x 18

v = 3391.2cm³




b) v = l x w x h

v = 30 x 22 x 24

v = 15840cm³





c) 15840cm³ x 1 = 15840cm³

15840cm³ x 2 = 31680cm³

15840cm³ x 3 = 47520cm³





She would have to fill it 3 times

Ryan's Volume Scribe Post

The questions I answered were numbers 4, 6, 8 in the homework book (pg. 80-81).
4. Calculate the volume of each rectangular prism.

a) l = 15 cm, w = 12 cm, h = 3 cm
v = l x w x h
v = 15 x 12 x 3
v = 180 x 3
v = 540cm3


















Jumbo
r = d/2
r = 20 / 2
r = 10cm

v = (πr2) x h
v = (3.14 x 102) x 40
v = (3.14 x 100) x 40
v = 314 x 40
v = 12, 560cm3

Popcorn Lover's
r = d/2
r = 30/2
r = 15cm

v = (πr^2) x h
v = (3.14 x 15^2) x 20
v = (3.14 x 225) x 20
v = 706.5 x 20
v = 14, 130cm^3

Popcorn Lover's has more space.


Full Circle
r = d/2
r = 1/2
r = 0.5m

v = (πr^2) x h
v = (3.14 x 0.5^2) x 10
v = (3.14 x 0.25) x 10
v = 0.785 x 10
v = 7.9m^3

"Hole" Circle
r = d/2
r = 0.8/2
r = 0.4m

v = (πr^2) x h
v = (3.14 x 0.4^2) x 10
v = (3.14 x 0.16) x 10
v = 0.5024 x 10
v = 5.1m^3

7.9 - 5.1 = 2.8m^3

Concrete volume is 2.8m^3.

Melanie's Volume Scribe Post

For my post, I will be answering the questions 4, 5, and 6 on the textbook work we did in class today. ( pages 258 - 261 )









*Sorry if some of the pictures are hard to see, just click it and it will appear bigger.

*Here is a link that will hopefully help those of you who don't understand how to find the volume of a rectangle / square.

If you guys don't
agree with my answers, have different answers or have any suggestions, just leave a comment! :)


Cylinder Volume and Volume Problems


v= π x r x r
v= 3.14 x 12cm x 12 cm
v= 452.16 cm2 x 15
v= 6782.4 cm3

6782.4 cm3 / 4= 1695.6 cm3


The volume of cheese taken from the block was 1695.6 cm3.
One assumption I made was that they cut 1/4 from the cheese.



r= d/2
r= 0.8m/2
r= 0.4 m

v=
π x r x r
v= 3.14 x 4cm x 4cm
v= 0.5024 cm2 x 10cm
v= 5.024 m3

r= d/2
r= 1m/2
r= 0.5m

v= π x r x r
v= 3.14 x 0.5m x 0.5m
v= 0.785 m2 x 10m
v= 7.85 m3

7.85 m3 - 5.024 m3 = 2.826 m3

The volume of concrete required to make the culvert is 2.826 m3.

Kristel's Volume Scribe Post

3. Determine the volume of each right prism or cylinder.

a) v= area of base x height
15 cm2 x 4 cm
60 cm3

b) v= area of base x height
18 cm2 x 12 cm
216 cm3

c) v= area of base x height
96 cm2 x 20 cm
1920 cm3


9. How many ways can you build a rectangular prism from 16 centimeter cubes? Use diagrams or centimeter cubes to show your designs.

You can build 4 designs:

1 - L = 16 cm, W = 1 cm, H = 1 cm

2 - L = 4 cm, W = 2 cm, H = 2 cm

3 - L = 8 cm, W = 1 cm, H = 2 cm

4 - L = 4 cm, W = 1 cm, H = 4 cm


11. José is having vegetable soup. The area of the base of the soup can is 10.4 cm2, and the height is 10 cm. When José opens the can, he sees that the soup comes up to a height of only 9 cm. What volume of soup is in the can?

v = Area of base x height
10. 4 cm2 x 9 cm
93.60 cm3


15. The International Space Station is shaped like a cylinder that has a cross-sectional area of 615 m2 and a length of 44.5 m. The living space for the astronauts is 425 m3. What percent of the volume of the space station is used for living?

I had trouble figuring out things question. Please leave a comment and help explain to me how to figure it out!

Volume

Linear measurement is measuring a line with a ruler.

There are different units of measurement and some examples are centimeters, milimeters, and meters.

Area measurement is measuring an area with square units.

Volume measurement is measuring an area in cubic units.

If your measuring volume and it is a liquid, remember that 1cm3=1ml

The definition of volume- The amount of space an object occupies.

The formula for finding volume is area of base x height

The base is any face that shows the named face of the prism.

The height is the perpendicular distance between the two bases of a prism or cylinder.


Rectangular Prism


Area of base x height

l x w =a
5 x 6
30cm2=a
30cm2 x 10cm = a
V= 300cm3

Triangular Prism


Area of base x height


b x h x h

-----------

6 x 10

-------- =30cm2

30cm2 x 5cm= 150cm3


Cylinder
r= d\2 area of base x height
r=10\2 pi•r2= a
r=5cm 3.14•25=a
78.5cm2=a
78.5cm2•10cm=785cm3




A rectangular prism has a length of 12cm, a width of 10cm, and a height of 15cm. What is the volume?
