Answer:
The amount of water is [tex]30,240in^3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a rectangular prism in the form of a bathtub.
Given data
depth of bathtub= 24 in
width of bathtub= 24 in
length of bathtub= 60 in
the volume of water in the bathtub is a function of the depth of water in relation with the dimension of the bathtub.
the depth of water is 3 in below the the top
hence the depth of water (24 in- 3 in)= 21 in
the expression for the volume of water is given as
[tex]volume= length* width*depth\\volume= 60*24*21=30,240in^3[/tex]
