Answer:

The sides of the original rectangular prism have been increased by a scale factor of 4

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

z----> the scale factor

x---> volume of the increased rectangular prism

y---> volume of the original rectangular prism

z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}

substitute

z^{3}=\frac{3,456}{54}=64

z=4 -----> the scale factor

therefore

The sides of the original rectangular prism have been increased by a scale factor of 4

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=\dfrac{-9\pm\sqrt{41}}{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The quadratic formula of}

ax^2+bx+c=0

\text{If}\ b^2-4a0,\ \text{then the equation has two solutions}\ x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\=========================================

\text{We have}\ x^2+9x+10=0\\\\a=1,\ b=9,\ c=10\\\\\text{substitute:}\\\\b^2-4ac=9^2-4(1)(10)=81-40=41>0\qquad _{\text{two solutions}}\\\\\sqrt{b^2-4ac}=\sqrt{41}\\\\x=\dfrac{-9\pm\sqrt{41}}{2(1)}=\dfrac{-9\pm\sqrt{41}}{2}
