Hello!
The formula for volume of a rectangular prism is:
V = lwh
Let's convert the dimensions to decimals, and then use the formula to solve.
8 1/2 = 8.5 as a decimal.
7 = 7 as a decimal.
2 1/2 = 2.5 as a decimal.
Multiply:
V = 8.5 × 7 × 2.5
V = 59.5 × 2.5
V = 148.75
148.75 = 148 3/4 as a fraction because if you convert 3/4 to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator, it equals 0.75.
ANSWER:
The volume of the book is 148 3/4 inches cubed.
V = L * W * H
L = 8.5
W = 7
H = 2.5
V = 8.5 * 7 * 2.5
V = 148. 75 = 148 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-2--5)/(6-2)
= (-2+5)/(6-2)
