What is the area of the base of the prism?
1 answer:
The base area of the prism is 36 square centimeters and the volume of the prism is 288 cubic centimeters
<h3>How to determine the base area?</h3>The base area is calculated as:
Base area =Length * Width
From the complete question (see attachment), we have:
Length = 12
Width = 3
So, we have:
Base area = 12 * 3
Base area = 36
<h3>How to determine the volume?</h3>The volume is calculated as:
Volume = Base area * Height
So, we have:
Volume = 36 * 8
Evaluate
Volume = 288
Hence, the volume of the prism is 288 cubic centimeters

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The 4 sides of a rhombus are congruent.
(i)
2y + x - 4 = 2x - y ( subtract 2x - y from both sides )
3y - x - 4 = 0 ( add 4 to both sides )
3y - x = 4 → (1)
and
= 2x - y ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )
4x - 3y + 5 = 4x - 2y ( subtract 4x - 2y from both sides )
- y + 5 = 0 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
- y = - 5 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
y = 5
substitute y = 5 into (1)
3(5) - x = 4
15 - x = 4 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
- x = - 11 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = 11
(ii)
then
2x - y = 2(11) - 5 = 22 - 5 = 17
perimeter = 4 × 17 = 68 cm
