What is the volume of this solid?<br><br> A. 1104<br> B. 132<br> C. 96<br> D. 276
statuscvo [17]

For this case we have that the volume of the figure is composed of the volume of a prism and the volume of a pyramid:

The volume of the prism is given by:

V = A_ {b} * h

Where:

A_ {b}: It is the area of the base

h: It's the height

Substituting:V = 6 * 6 * 6\\V = 216 \ units ^ 3

The volume of the pyramid is given by:

V = \frac {1} {3} * L ^ 2 * h

Where:

L ^ 2:It is the area of the base

h: It's the height

Substituting:

V = \frac {1} {3} * 6 ^ 2 * 5\\V = \frac {1} {3} * 36 * 5\\V = 60units ^ 3

We add and we have:

V = 276 \ units ^ 3

The length of a rectangle is 8 feet more than its width. If the width is increased by 4 feet and the length is decreased by 5 fe
bezimeni [28]
Assign the following variables for the origina3l rectangle:
let w = width let w + 8 = length and the area would be w(w + 8) = w² + 8w

No for the second rectangle:
let (w + 4) = width and (w + 8 - 5) or (w + 3) = length
Area = length x width or (w + 4)(w + 3) = w² + 3w + 4w + 12 using the foil method to multiply to binomials. Simplified Area = w² + 7w + 12

Now our problem says that the two area will be equal to each other, which sets up the following equation:

w² + 8w = w² + 7w + 12 subtract w² from both sides
8w = 7w + 12 subtract 7w from both sides
w = 12 this is the width of our original rectangle
recall w + 8 = length, so length of the original rectangle would be 20

Ethan works in a department store selling clothing. He makes a guaranteed salary of $500 per week, but is paid a commision on to
ElenaW [278]

The total amount of money Ethan made in a week including commission is $812.5

<h3>Total income</h3>

  • Total sales for the week = $1250
  • Base salary = $500
  • Percentage commission = 25%

Amount of commission earned = 25% of $1250

= 25/100 × $1,250

= 0.25 × 1250

= $312.5

Total earnings = Base salary + Amount of commission earned

= $500 + $312.5

= $812.5
