Answer:

Option 2nd is correct

B is the area of the base

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area(SA) of a triangular prism is given by:

$SA = 2B+Ph$

where,

B is the base area

P is the base perimeter

h is the length of prism.

As per the statement:

The equation SA = 2B + Ph represents the surface area of a triangular prism.

from the above definition we have;

⇒B is the area of the base

Therefore, the following describes the meaning of B is, B is the area of the base

We need to simplify $\frac{ \sqrt{14x^3} }{ \sqrt{18x} }$

First lets factor $\sqrt{14x^3}$

$\sqrt{14x^3}$ = $\sqrt{14} \sqrt{x^3}$
$\sqrt{14} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{7}$ by applying the radical rule $\sqrt[n]{ab} = \sqrt[n]{a} \sqrt[n]{b}$
$\sqrt{x^3} = x^{3/2}$ By applying the radical rule $\sqrt[n]{x^m} = x^{m/n}$

So
$\sqrt{14x^3}$ = $\sqrt{14} \sqrt{x^3}$ = $\sqrt{2} \sqrt{7}x^{3/2}$

Now let's factor $\sqrt{18x}$
By applying the radical rule $\sqrt[n]{ab} = \sqrt[n]{a} \sqrt[n]{b}$ ,
$\sqrt{18x} = \sqrt{18} \sqrt{x}$
$\sqrt{18} = \sqrt{2} * 3$

So $\sqrt{18x}$ = $\sqrt{2}*3 \sqrt{x}$

So $\frac{ \sqrt{14x^3} }{ \sqrt{18x} }$ = $\frac{ \sqrt{2} \sqrt{7} x^{3/2} }{ \sqrt{2}*3 \sqrt{x} }$

We know that $\sqrt[n]{x} = x^{1/n}$ so $\sqrt{x} = x^{1/2}$

We now have $\frac{ \sqrt{2} \sqrt{7} x^{3/2} }{ \sqrt{2}*3 \sqrt{x}} = \frac{ \sqrt{2} \sqrt{7} x^{3/2} }{ \sqrt{2}*3x^{1/2}}$

We know that $\frac{x^a}{x^b} = x^{a-b}$
So $\frac{x^{3/2}}{x^{1/2}} = x^{3/2 - 1/2} = x$

We now got $\frac{ \sqrt{2} \sqrt{7} x^{3/2} }{ \sqrt{2}*3x^{1/2}} = \frac{ \sqrt{2} \sqrt{7} x }{ \sqrt{2}*3}
$

We can notice that the numerator and the denominator both got √2 in a multiplication, so we can simplify them, and we get:
$\frac{ \sqrt{2} \sqrt{7} x }{ \sqrt{2}*3} = \frac{ \sqrt{7}x }{3}$

All in All, we get $\frac{ \sqrt{14x^3} }{ \sqrt{18x} }$ = $\frac{ \sqrt{7}x }{3}$

Hope this helps! :D
