Question

A

A shipping container is in the shape of a right rectangular prism with a length
of 13.5 feet, a width of 11 feet, and a height of 5-5 feet. The container is
completely filled with contents that weigh, on average, 0.93 pound per cubic
foot. What is the weight of the contents in the container, to the nearest
pound?

Answer 1

The answer to this question Is 170 lbs

Answer 2

Answer:760 lbs

Explanation:

The volume of a right rectanglar prism (i.e., a box) is length*width*height.

Volume = (13.5)*(11)*(5.5) = 817 ft^3

Density = 0.93 lb/ft^3

Weight of container contents = (817 ft^3)*(0.93 lg/ft^3) = 760 lbs
