6 inches because area= length times width and 6 times 8= 48 inches
I believe both answers are Shannon.
Answer:
1, -6 and -5
Explanation:
To solve the equation means to get the values of n which satisfy the given equation.
The equation given is:
(n-1) (n+6) (n+5) = 0
This equation will be true if any of the terms (brackets) is equal to zero.
This means that:
either n-1 = 0 .............> n = 1
or n + 6 = 0 ................> n = -6
or n + 5 = 0 ................> n = -5
Hope this helps :)
<u>Given</u>:
The sides of the base of the triangle are 8, 15 and 17.
The height of the prism is 15 units.
We need to determine the volume of the right triangular prism.
<u>Area of the base of the triangle:</u>
The area of the base of the triangle can be determined using the Heron's formula.

Substituting a = 8, b = 15 and c = 17. Thus, we have;


Using Heron's formula, we have;





Thus, the area of the base of the right triangular prism is 36 square units.
<u>Volume of the right triangular prism:</u>
The volume of the right triangular prism can be determined using the formula,

where
is the area of the base of the prism and h is the height of the prism.
Substituting the values, we have;


Thus, the volume of the right triangular prism is 450 cubic units.
