$\dfrac{x}{9}=\dfrac{5}{3}\\
\dfrac{x}{9}=\dfrac{15}{9}\\
x=15$

15, because 3 goes into 9, 3 times and, 4 goes into 12, 3 times therefore x has to follow this rule because these 2 triangles are similar and because it already gives you 5 just take 5*3=15 there is your answer enjoy!=)

The volume of a rectangular prism is (x^3 – 3x^2 + 5x – 3), and the area of its base is (x^2 – 2). If the volume of a rectangula

Answer:

The height of the prism is equal to $h=(x^{3}-3x^{2}+5x-3)/(x^{2}-2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

$V=Bh$

where

B is the area of the base of the prism

h is the height of the prism

In this problem we have

$V=x^{3}-3x^{2}+5x-3$

$B=x^{2}-2$

substitute in the formula and solve for h

$x^{3}-3x^{2}+5x-3=(x^{2}-2)h$

$h=(x^{3}-3x^{2}+5x-3)/(x^{2}-2)$

Describe the piecewise function below by evaluating the function for given values of the domain

tekilochka [14]

We have a piecewise function.
Therefore, to find the function, we must evaluate each domain separately.
We have then:

For $x \leq -2$ :
The function for this domain is:
$y = -3
$

For $-2 \ \textless \ x \leq 2$ :
The function for this domain is:
$y = mx + b
$
Where,
$b = -3

 m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

 m = (1 - (-7)) / (2 - (-2))$
$m = (1 + 7) / (2 + 2)

 m = 8/4

 m = 2$
Substituting:
$y = 2x - 3
$

For $x\ \textgreater \ 2$ :
The function for this domain is:
$y = 5$
