Volume of prisms just 3 problems

Answer:

2.  18 cubic cm.

3. 27 cubic cm

5. 90 cubic m

Step-by-step explanation:

2. Triangular prism

So, we have a triangular prism with a width of 3 cm, a height of 1.5 cm and a length of 4.  We'll take the triangle shape as the base.

Like for any prism, the volume is the base multiplied by the height.

So, the area of the base is found with the regular formula: base x height:

so, 3 x 1.5 = 4.5 sq cm for the base.

Then we multiply the base by the length to get the volume: 4.5 x 4 = 18 cubic cm.

3. Trapezoidal prism

Again, first step is to calculate the area of the trapezoid shape, then multiply by its depth.

The area of a trapezoid is calculated with the formula:

A = h/2 * (a + b) where a and b represent the short and long sides respectively.

So, for our given trapezoid:

A = 1.5/2 * (2+4) = 0.75 * 6 = 4.5 sq cm.

Then we multiply the base area by the height to get the volume:

V = 4.5 * 6 = 27 cubic cm

5. Triangular prism 2

The best way to approach this one is to consider it's a triangle prism with a height of 3 cm, and use the triangle shape (with sides of 13 and 5) as the base.

But to calculate the area of that triangle we need to find out the missing length. Using Pythagore's theorem, we can easily find the length of the other side with the hypotenuse formula:

hypotenuse² = sideA² + sideB²

In our case, we have:

13² = x² + 5²

169 = x² + 25

x² = 144

x = 12

Now we can calculate the area of the triangle easily:

A = (b x h)/2 = (5 x 12)/2 = 30 sq m

Then multiply by the thickness of the prism....

V = 30 x 3 = 90 cubic m

X + y = 20 Substitute
x by 2 y - 4 in x + y = 20 to obtain 2 y •
4 + y = 20 Solve for y to find y = 8 and
x = 2y - 4 = 12

Each month, a shopkeeper spends 5x+11 dollars on rent and electricity. if he spends 2x-3 dollars on rent, how muck dose he spend
timofeeve [1]
Rent and electricity = 5x + 11
rent = 2x - 3

electricity = (5x + 11) - (2x - 3) 
electricity = 5x + 11 - 2x + 3
electricity = 3x + 14

---------------------------------
Answer: 3x + 11

Camryn practices the trumpet every 11th day and the flute every 3rd day. Camryn practiced both the trumpet and the flute today.
QveST [7]

Answer: 33 days.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given :- Camryn practices the trumpet every 11th day and the flute every 3rd day.

Camryn practiced both the trumpet and the flute today.  

To find the number of days until Camryn practices the trumpet and flute again in the same day, we need to find the least common multiple (L.C.M.) of 11 and 3.

As they both are co-prime numbers thus its L.C.M.= 11×3=33

Therefore, Camryn practices the trumpet and flute again in the same day after 33 days.
