Yay!The school
carnival is coming
up soon. It’s our
job to design a
dunk tank.Awesome!They are giving us
160 square feet of metal
sheeting. We have to figure
out the dimensions for
maximum dunkage!We have to keep
it rectangular in
shape.Let’s compare different
bases. We need to make
sure that we maximize
the volume.What?
HEY!Ok. Let’s brainstorm.
I’ll take notes.And it needs to
be deep enough
to get people
all wet!Don’t forget surface area.
We need to stay within
160 square feet.And afterwards, we’ll
put Darlo in there and
test it out!554_556_C10_CO_895130.indd 555 1/4/10 2:34 PM
