The long, straightforward, brute-force way to slog through the problem:
The prism is 12cm x 6cm x 9cm.
Volume of the prism = (12 x 6 x 9) = 648 cm³
Volume of each little cube = (1.5 x 1.5 x 1.5) = 3/375 cm³
Number of little cubes that fit into the prism = (648 cm³) / (3.375 cm³) = <em>
192 of them</em>
=============================================
The elegant but almost equally long way to master the problem:
The prism is 12cm x 6cm x 9cm.
If each dimension of your measuring cubie is 1.5cm,
then the prism measures
(8 cubie lengths) x (4 cubie widths) x (6 cubie heights) .
Its volume is (8 x 4 x 6) = <em>192 measuring cubies</em>.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2-6x=7 is our equation
x^2-2*3*x= 7
So the term we will be adding is 3^2 since 3 the second term is 2*3*x
x^2-6x+9=7-9
We added 9 and substract it to keep the equation
(x+3)^2 = -2
Wich is impossible since a squared number is always positive
Long Division can be a pain, but I'm going to help you. The answer is 2x+5 and the remainder is -1/x+6.
When you have to describe a 3D shape you have to keep the following definitions in mind:
<em>1. The face of a 3D shape is a flat surface.</em>
The shape on the picture has 3 rectangular faces and 2 triangular faces, a total of 5 faces.
<em />
<em>2. The edge is where two faces meet.</em>
For the shape on the picture, there are 3 edges, where the rectangular faces meet each other, and then three edges where the rectangular faces meet each of the triangular faces, this shape has a total of 9 edges.
<em>3. The vertex is a corner, where the edges meet.</em>
There are three vertices on each end of the shape, so it has a total of 6 vertices.
A shape that has 5 faces, 9 edges, and 6 vertices is a triangular prism.
