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

1)Choose the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the point shown and is perpendicular to the line shown.
dimulka [17.4K]
To find the equation for the line in slope-intercept form y= mx + b, perpendicular to the line shown and passing through (6, -6):

The slope of the blue line is the rise (change in y) divided by run (change in x)
Choosing two points on the line (0, -6) and (2,0)
Slope = (0 - (-6)) / (2 - 0) = 6 / 2 = 3
The slope of our perpendicular line will be the opposite inverse, so: 
m = -1/3
We have the point (6, -6) so we can solve for b
y = mx + b
-6 = (-1/3)*6 + b
-6 = -2 + b
b = -4
We know that m= (-1/3) and b= -4, so: 
y = (-1/3)x - 4

This is definitely the correct answer. None of the above answers describe the line that is perpendicular to the blue line and passes through (6, -6). Make sure you wrote the options down correctly.
