Answer:

The volume of the larger rectangular prism is $648\ cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x-----> the volume of the larger rectangular prism

y-----> the volume of the smaller rectangular prism

$z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}$

In this problem we have

$z=\frac{12}{4}=3$ ---> the scale factor is equal to the ratio of its corresponding sides

$y=24\ cm^{3}$

substitute and solve for x

$3^{3}=\frac{x}{24}$

$x=27*24=648\ cm^{3}$

21x =7? A. x=3 B. None of these C. x=147 D. x=28

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

To isolate x, you divide both sides by 21

21x=7

$\frac{21x}{21}=\frac{7}{21}$

x = 7/21

Simplify by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 7

x = 1/3

Since, 1/3 is not an option, B is the correct answer

Pls help me that would be great

No. No. It is not linear because the slope has to be able to be plugged in to any x, y coordinates and be placed on the line.
