Answer:

The lengths of the sides of the square base are  2\sqrt{2}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

A triangular prism has an isosceles right triangular base with a hypotenuse of square root of 32 and a prism height of 12. a square prism has a height of 12 and its volume is equal to that of the <em><u>triangular</u></em> prism. what are the dimensions of the square base, in simplest radical form?

we know that

The volume of a prism is given by the formula

V=Bh

where

B is the area of the base

h is the height of the prism

so

If the volumes of the solids are the same and their  heights are the same, then the area of the base of the triangular prism must be equal to the area of the base of the square prism

step 1

Find the area of the base of the triangular prism

Remember that in a right isosceles triangle, the two legs are equal

Let

x ---> the length side of each leg

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

(\sqrt{32})^2 =2x^2

x^2=32/2\\x^2=16\\x=4\ units

The area of the triangular base is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(4)=8\ units^2

step 2

Find the dimensions of base of the square prism

Let

b ---> the length side of the square base

The area of a square is given by the formula

A=b^2

we have

A=8\ unit^2 ----> is the same that the area of triangle

substitute

8=b^2

b=2\sqrt{2}\ units

therefore

The lengths of the sides of the square base are  2\sqrt{2}\ units

X^2/9+2y/7 help me solve
vfiekz [6]

So firstly, we have to find the LCD, or lowest common denominator, of 9 and 7. To do this, list the multiples of 9 and 7 and the lowest multiple they share is going to be your LCD. In this case, the LCD of 9 and 7 is 63. Multiply x^2/9 by 7/7 and 2y/7 by 9/9:

\frac{x^2}{9}\times \frac{7}{7}=\frac{7x^2}{63}\\\\\frac{2y}{7}\times \frac{9}{9}=\frac{18y}{63}\\\\\frac{7x^2}{63}+\frac{18y}{63}

Next, add the numerators together, and your answer will be: \frac{7x^2}{63}+\frac{18y}{63}=\frac{7x^2+18y}{63}

ahrayia [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3><h3>All of them meet at the gym again after 48 days and it will be tuesday</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Lily goes to gym once every 8 days.

Such that she will visit on 8, 16 , 24, 32 , 40, 48th days

Ann goes once every 12 days

Such that she will visit on 12, 24, 36, 48, 60th days ....

Taylor comes once every 16 days

Such that she will visit on 16, 32, 48, 64th days....

Comparing the common days on which they will visit again after wednesday,

it will be after 48 days, (i.e) after 6 weeks and 5 days, it will be tuesday

Assuming that Hamid’s revenue is found by multiplying the book price by the number of copies sold, create an equation (in standa
Vadim26 [7]

An equation of Hamid’s revenue by multiplying the book price by the number of copies sold is  x = ny.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

The process of equating one thing with another.

Let Hamid’s revenue is $x and the price of book is $y.

If he sold n number of copies.

Then, the general equation will be x = n * y.

Therefore, an equation of Hamid's revenue will be x = ny.
