Answer:

You can alternatively apply PEMDAS as schools do today: Simplify everything inside the parentheses first, then exponents, then all multiplication and division from left to right in the order both operations appear, then all addition and subtraction from left to right in the order both operations appear.

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS is an acronym for the words parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. Given two or more operations in a single expression, the order of the letters in PEMDAS tells you what to calculate first, second, third and so on, until the calculation is complete.

so 8+4 =12 12-3=9

What is the volume of the composite figure? Explain your work. A complete answer should include how you broke up the figure, whi

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

$15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite figure consists of a square prism and a trapezoidal prism. By adding the volume of each, we obtain the volume of the composite figure.

The volume of the square prism is given by $V=s^2\cdot h$ , where $s$ is the base length and $h$ is the height. Substituting given values, we have: $V=14^2\cdot 30=196\cdot 30=5,880\:\mathrm{mm^3}$

The volume of a trapezoidal prism is given by $V=\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot l\cdot h$ , where $b_1$ and $b_2$ are bases of the trapezoid, $l$ is the length of the height of the trapezoid and $h$ is the height. This may look very confusing, but to break it down, we're finding the area of the trapezoid (base) and multiplying it by the height. The area of a trapezoid is given by the average of the bases ( $\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}$ ) multiplied by the trapezoid's height ( $l$ ).
