Answer:

a = 0.4 and b=1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Both expressions are simply divided

(2x + 8y = 60) ÷ (ax + by = 12)

60÷12 = 5, Hence coefficient of x and y in the bigger equation is divided by 5 to find a and b

2/5 = 0.4 = a

8/5= 1.6 = b

Find the volume of the triangular prism
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

V = 5280 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is found by

V = Bh  where B is the area of the base and h is the height

first we need to find the area of the base

The base is the triangle

We need to find the base dimension for the triangle

34^2 = 16^2 + b^2

34^2 -16^2 = b^2

900 = b^2

30 =b

B = 1/2 bh

  = 1/2 (30) *16

B =240

V = Bh

V = 240 * 22

V = 5280 in^3
