Respuesta :

Given:
20 persons
each person produces 740 BTUs 
Dimension of bus interior: 38 ft by 8.25 ft by 7.5 ft. 

Find 
how many BTUs per cubic foot are produced.

BTU stands for British Thermal Unit. It is an energy unit.

20 person * 740 BTU per person = 14,800 BTU

Volume of the bus = 38 ft * 8.25ft * 7.5 ft = 2,351.25 cubic feet

14,800 BTU / 2,351.25 cubic feet = 6.29 or 6.30 BTU per cubic foot

Answer:

6.29

Step-by-step explanation:

The other answer is correct! I know how to explain it and I got the question correct but I'm not gonna explain anything because the other person already has a great response! Tip: If you are taking the test, then be sure to put your answer as 6.29 because that is what the test will count as correct! Good luck everyone! :D
