Answer:
B) 4,320
Step-by-step explanation:
You would first find the volume of the triangular prism using this formula:
V = 1/2 x A x C x H
A = 3 C = 6 H = 24
V = 1/2 x 3 x 6 x 24 = 216 cubic feet
Since there are 20 pounds of snow per cubic foot, you multiply the cubic feet (216) by the pounds of snow per cubic foot (20):
216 x 20 = 4,320 pounds
4/3 = 1/x.....4 lbs potatoes to $3 = 1 lb of potatoes to $x
cross multiply
(4)(x) = (3)(1)
4x = 3
x = 3/4
x = 0.75....so 1 lb of potatoes cost 75 cents
(8,6)...this means 8 lbs of potatoes cost $6
The best way to do this is to set up a proportion
2 5
--- = ----
5 x
then cross multiply and divide
5 times 5=25/2=12.5
he would move 12.5 feet in 5 hours
I hope I've helped!
The equation for this is a^2+b^2=c^2 so your equation would be 7^2+20^2=X
So you square the 7 and the 20 then take the square root of X and you get
X=21.19
