Since the plane if cutting through the prism to make 5 sides, than the original shape needs to have less than 5.
 A prism, is a 3D shape, so you can't have a 2 sided shape.

Now you have a choice of 3 or 4 sides.

A 3 sides shape is a triangle, which also can't be cut into a 5 sided prism,
 so the answer would need to be 4.
 The answer is B

Answer:

x = 2, y = 7, z = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y - z = -3 (1)

3x - y + z = 11 (2)

x - 4y + z = -14 (3)

add (1) and (2)

4x = 8 x = 2

add (1) and (3)

2x - 3y = -17

2(2) - 3y = -17

-3y = -17 - 4

-3y = -21

y = 7

Find z using any equation

x + y - z = -3

2 + 7 - z = -3

9 - z = -3

z = 12

What can be represented as fractions, rational numbers, or irrational numbers?
Delvig [45]
Hmm question is a little confusing but fractions can be represented as division or a part of somthing, like 4 pieces of an 8 slice pizza, or you have 8 peices of pizza and you divide them by 4. Im pretty sure a rational number is any number that can be representated as a fraction. an irrational number is something you  cant express as a fraction like the square root of a number or pi.
