Why are length x width x height and base x height both correct ways to find volume of a rectangular prism?

<em>Answer</em>

<em>Because the base is equal to the area, (L*W). So essentially, they are the same equation! </em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

We normally find the area when dealing with two-dimensional shapes, correct? So, when the shape becomes 3-dimensional, it now includes a base <em>and </em>a height! You multiply these together to get the volume (the amount of space it takes up).

If we were to add a height to a regular rectangle, what was once the entire shape, now becomes the base of a rectangular prism! The length and the width of that prism is equal to the base, which makes both equations equal to each other!

In 2013 number of students in a small school is 284.it is estimated that student population will increase by 4 percent
BaLLatris [955]

The situation can be modeled by a geometric sequence with an initial term of 284. The student population will be 104% of the prior year, so the common ratio is 1.04.

Let \displaystyle PP be the student population and \displaystyle nn be the number of years after 2013. Using the explicit formula for a geometric sequence we get

{P}_{n} =284\cdot {1.04}^{n}P

n

=284⋅1.04

n

We can find the number of years since 2013 by subtracting.

\displaystyle 2020 - 2013=72020−2013=7

We are looking for the population after 7 years. We can substitute 7 for \displaystyle nn to estimate the population in 2020.

\displaystyle {P}_{7}=284\cdot {1.04}^{7}\approx 374P

7

=284⋅1.04

7

≈374

The student population will be about 374 in 2020.
