Answer:
(1)750 cubic feet
(2)8 Times
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Question 1</u>
<u>Dimensions of the Right Triangular Base</u>
- Base = 20 feet
- Height= 120 inches = 10 feet
Base Area of the Prism
- Height of the Prism = 5 feet
Volume of the Prism = Base Area X Height
= 150 X 5
=750 cubic feet
<u>Question 2</u>
<u>Jake's Box</u>
- Length: 12 inches
- Width: 4 inches
- Height: 8 inches
Volume = 12 X 4 X 8 =384 cubic inches
<u>Havana's box</u>
Havana has a shipping box similar to Jake's box, but each dimension is half as long.
Therefore:
- Length: 12/2=6 inches
- Width: 4/2=2 inches
- Height: 8/2=4 inches
Volume = 6 X 2 X 4 =48 cubic inches
Now:
384/48=8
Therefore, the volume of Jake's box is 8 times larger than Havana's box.
