There is a difference because in the spring, there may be more days of rain, therefore that would increase the mean for the spring compared to the other days.

The area of the base of a rectangular prism is 36 cm2. The height of the prism is 3 5/6 cm. What is the volume of the prism?

Lilit [14]

Answer: The correct option is (C) 36 cm².

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the volume of a rectangular prism with base area 36 cm² and height $3\frac{5}{6}~\textup{cm}.$

We know that the volume of a rectangular prism with base area b sq. units and height h units is given by

$V=bh.$

Here,

base area, b = 36 cm²

and

height is

$h=3\dfrac{5}{6}=\dfrac{23}{6}~\textup{cm}.$

Therefore, the VOLUME of the given prism will be

$V=bh=36\times \dfrac{23}{6}=6\times 23=138~\textup{cm}^3.$

Thus, the volume of the given rectangular prism is 36 cm².

Option (D) is CORRECT.

5 times a number increased

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make this information into an equation.

We'll use 'x' whenever the problem says "a number".

Equation:

5x + 18 = 36 + 4x

How did I get to this equation?

5 times a number means 5 multiplied by x
increased by 18 means to add 18
is the same as means equals
36 more than means to add 36
4 times the number means 4 multiplied by x

Now, let's solve.

Solve:

5x + 18 = 36 + 4x

Subtract 18 on both sides:

5x + 18 = 36 + 4x

-18 -18

5x = 18 + 4x

Subtract 4x on both sides:

5x = 18 + 4x

-4x -4x

x = 18

Therefore, "the number" is 18.
