If we say there are 100 cars in a lot (It's an arbitrary number. You can use any number you want), Matthew can wash 100 cars in 14 hours or 7.14 cars an hour. Arianna can wash 100 cars in 11 hours or 9.09 cars an hour. Together, in an hour they can wash 7.14 + 9.09 or 16.23 cars. So to wash 100 cars it would take them 100/16.23 = 6.16 or about 6 hours. 
You can do this with variables as well. 
Matthew has a rate of x/14 while Arianna has a rate of x/11. Together their rate is x/14 + x/11= x/y
Divide both sides by x, you would get 1/14 + 1/11 = 1/y
Solve for y which would be around 6 hours.

Find the volume of the triangular prism in the picture shown. Round your answer to the
Olenka [21]

Given:

A figure of a triangular prism.

Height of triangular base = 9\dfrac{2}{3} yd

Base of triangular base = 4 yd

Height of prism = 4 yd.

To find:

The volume of the triangular prism.

Solution:

Volume of a triangular prism is:

V=Bh              ...(i)

Where, B is the area of triangular base and h is the height of the prism.

Area of triangular base is:

B=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base\times height

B=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times 9\dfrac{2}{3}

B=2\times \dfrac{29}{3}

B=\dfrac{58}{3}

Putting B=\dfrac{58}{3} and h=4 in (i), we get

V=\dfrac{58}{3}\times 4

V=\dfrac{232}{3}

V=77.33...

V\approx 77.3

The volume of the triangular prism is 77.3 cubic yards. Therefore, the correct option is 2.
