@joeywhite help me please

anonymous · Answer

i cant quite make out the dimensions in the diagram
length = 3.5 and 14 right ?
what are the widths and heights of the pools?

anonymous · Answer

ok - it looks to me that the 2 pools are similar in shape
and each dimension ( length , width and height ) are in ratio
dogs : family = 1 : 4

so ratio of the volumes is 1^3 : 4^3 = 1:64  (or as a fraction 1/64)

anonymous · Answer

the family pool is 14ft length, 10.5 width and 10.5 height
the dog pool is 3.5ft length, 2.625 width and 2.625, height.

anonymous · Answer

idk

anonymous · Answer

right - then my answer holds (  10.5 ./ 2.625  = 4, 14 / 3.5 = 4)

anonymous · Answer

So i put that for the answer?

anonymous · Answer

oh - the height i guess is of the water (not including the 6 inches)

anonymous · Answer

So what should i put?

anonymous · Answer

yes 
the ratio of the dimensions (length etc)  is 1 : 4
and ratio of the volumes is the cube of these ,  that is 1 : 64

anonymous · Answer

and say that the height is that of the water in the 2 pools

anonymous · Answer

r u happy with that?

anonymous · Answer

I guess if thats the answer.
