Answer:

The prism is 3 by 3 by 1.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prism has a length x and a width x. Since it is a square at the base both length and width are the same amount x. The height is "half the length of one edge of the base". Since the base is x, this makes it 1/2x.

The volume's prism is found using V = l*w*h. Substitute and simplify.

13.5 = x*x*1/2x

13.5 = 1/2 x^3

27 = x^3

3 = x

The prism is 3 by 3 by 1.5.

With 128 134 140 146 152 what's the next number if the pattern continues
mario62 [17]
To find the answer, you need to determine what the difference is. In this case, the difference is 6. 

134 - 128 = 6
140 - 134 = 6
146 - 140 = 6
152 - 146 = 6

So, to find the answer you would add 6 to the next set of numbers to continue the pattern. For example - 

152 + 6 = 158
158 + 6 = 164

Belle wants to build a sandbox in the shape of a rectangular prism. She needs the volume of her sandbox to be 18 cubic feet and
ycow [4]

Answer:

9x2x1 and 6x3x1

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has multiple answers to it. A sandbox of 18 cubic feet with a height of a foot is actually quite simple. If it is confusing I would try to visualize the sandbox. Since volume is b x h x w the first thing you should do is divide 18 by 1. This would be more important if the height was more than one. Now you just have to find two other numbers that can divide 18. 9x2=18 and 6x3=18 so two possible dimensions for the sandbox are 9x2x1 and 6x3x1

Substract 11 3/4 - 9 8/15
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

2 and 13/60

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must create a common denominator in the fractions. For the given denominators, it would be 60, so 3/4 would be 45/60 and 8/15 would be 32/60. From here, we can just subtract and get 2 and 13/60.

Hope this helps!
