Answer:
The prism is 3 by 3 by 1.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The prism has a length x and a width x. Since it is a square at the base both length and width are the same amount x. The height is "half the length of one edge of the base". Since the base is x, this makes it 1/2x.
The volume's prism is found using V = l*w*h. Substitute and simplify.
13.5 = x*x*1/2x
13.5 = 1/2 x^3
27 = x^3
3 = x
The prism is 3 by 3 by 1.5.

Metric is used world-wide and is used everywhere except in english places (britan and USA)
some examples why metric is nice
base 10 system
1cm=10mm=0.1m=0.01km
1cm^3=1ml
1000cm^3=1L
1000ml=1L
0 C⁰=freezing tempurature
100 C⁰=boinling tempurature
in english
12in=1foot
3ft=1yd
16oz=1lb
8oz=1cup
3tsbs=1tbs
2c=1pt
2pt=1qt
4qt=1gal
32 F⁰=freezing
2hundred something=boiling
metric is nice because everything is in multiplules of 10
and also this exerpt from a book
"<span>In metric, one milliliter of water occupies one cubic centimeter,
weighs one gram, and requires one calorie of energy to heat up by one
degree centigrade which is 1 per cent of the difference between its
freezing point and its boiling point. An amount of hydrogen weighing the
same amount has exactly one mole of atoms in it. Whereas in the American
system the answer to <em>'How much energy does it take to boil a
room-temperature gallon of water?'</em> is go **** yourself because you
can't directly relate any of those quantities "</span>

Answer:
C. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
This is just a common ratio. These two triangles are alike, just that one is smaller than the other. You can see that one of the sides of the big traingle is 10. The same side of the smaller triangle is 5. That means the big traingle's side is twice as big as the small circle's.
10 divided by 5= 2
If the big triangle's side got divided by 2 to get the smaller triangle's side. So, that means the other side of the big triangle, 8 is twice as big as the side on the smaller triangle, x.
8 divided by 2= x
8 divided by 2= 4, so x= 4.
This is the ratio:
8:10 to x:5
As you can see the 10 got divided by 2 to get the 5. So 8 must also get divided by 2, which equals 4.
