Final answer:
To find the volume of the shipping container, you multiply its dimensions: length, width, and height. The volume calculation for this container is 60 ft x 45.5 ft x 14 ft, which equals 38220 ft³. So, the correct answer is C. 38220 ft³. The correct answer is option C .
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking for the volume of a shipping container which is a rectangular prism. To find the volume of a rectangular prism, we multiply its length (L), width (W), and height (H). The formula for the volume (V) becomes V = L x W x H. For this particular container, the dimensions are 60 feet long, 45.5 feet wide, and 14 feet tall. So the calculation will look like this: V = 60 ft x 45.5 ft x 14 ft.
To compute the volume, we follow these steps:
- Multiply the length by the width: 60 ft x 45.5 ft = 2730 ft².
- Now multiply the result by the height to get the volume: 2730 ft² x 14 ft = 38220 ft³.
To find the minimum number of tickets that must be sold in person in order for the group to meet its goal, we need to calculate the total revenue from both online and in-person ticket sales.
Given that 240 passes were sold online, the revenue from online sales would be $9 multiplied by 240, which is $2,160.
To reach a minimum goal of $4,000, the revenue from in-person ticket sales should be at least $4,000 - $2,160, which is $1,840.
Since each in-person ticket is priced at $12, we can divide $1,840 by $12 to find the minimum number of tickets that must be sold in person. The answer is 153.33, but since we can't sell a fractional number of tickets, the minimum number of tickets that must be sold in person is 154.
Therefore, the correct answer to the question is C. 38220 ft³.
