Answer:

\text{Volume of prism made by }\Delta XYZ=2304\text{ in}^3  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that both prisms are similar, so we can use proportions to solve for the volume of prism made by triangle XYZ.

Let us find the proportion between the sides of both triangles.

\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{24}{36}

\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{12*2}{12*3}

\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{2}{3}

Since for volume of triangular prism we multiply base area and height of the prism, this means we will have to multiply the proportion of each side length 3 times to find the proportion of volumes between our both prism.

So we can set proportion for volume of both prisms as:

\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle PQR}}=(\frac{2}{3})^3  

\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle PQR}}=\frac{8}{27}

Upon substituting volume of prism made by triangle PQR we will get,

\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{7776\text{in}^3}=\frac{8}{27}    

Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 7776 cubic inches.

\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{7776\text{ in}^3}*7776\text{ in}^3=\frac{8}{27}*7776\text{ in}^3

\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}=8*288\text{ in}^3

\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}=2304\text{ in}^3  

Therefore, the volume of prism made by triangle XYZ is 2304 cubic inches.

What is the value of x?
Andrew [12]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

x = 25

<h3>Solution:</h3>

\frac{40}{40+24} = \frac{x}{x +15} \\ \frac{40}{64} = \frac{x}{x +15} \\ \frac{5}{8} = \frac{x}{x +15} \\ 5(x +15) = 8x \\ 5x +75 = 8x \\ 75 = 3x \\ 25 = x

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Angle BDR is congruent to angle QDC because they share common angles. Angles BRD and QCD are congruent because lines BR and QC are <em>parallel</em> and line DR intersecting them creates <em>two corresponding angles</em>, BRD and QCD. Because of the reasons I mentioned, Triangles DBR and DQC are similar by Angle Angle Similarity Postulate and because these two triangles are similar they must share the same scaling factor of corresponding sides (example: \frac{DQ}{DB}\\). So \frac{DQ}{DB} = \frac{DC}{DR}\\.

You bet $7 on a local race being held for charity. the payoff odds given by the charity event are 12:1. find your net profit for
andrey2020 [161]

12:1 means for every dollar you bet you will win 12

 so 7 x 12 = 84

you would win $84, you bet 7 so net profit would be 84-7 = $77

 Net profit is $77
