Answer:

depth of the pool: 8 ft

Explanation:

rectangular prism volume = length * breath * height

Given:

  • length = 15 feet
  • breadth = 12 feet

using this formula:

[tex]\sf volume = length * breath * height[/tex]

[tex]\sf 1440 = 15 * 12 * height[/tex]

[tex]\sf height * 180 = 1440[/tex]

[tex]\sf height = \frac{1440}{180}[/tex]

[tex]\sf height = 8 ft[/tex]
