Let us cross multiply.
5/9=10/x
9 x 10= 5x
90=5x
90 <u />÷ 5= 5x <span>÷ 5
18=x
So, the answer is 18. I hope this helped you, since I just learned cross multiplication last week.</span>
DUDE WHAT GRADE R U IN!?!?!? IT'S SIMPLE ADDITION , BRO!!!
The formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism (the cargo area of the truck is the shape of a rectangle in 3D; a rectangular prism) is V = (l)(w)(h); where <em>l</em> = length, <em>w</em> = width, and <em>h</em> = height.
First, substitute the known values into the equation:
l = 8.5
w = 6
h = 10.5
V = (8.5)(6)(10.5)
<em>(Note: .5 = 1/2)</em>
Now, all we need to do is simplify:
V = 535.5 ft³ OR 535 1/2 ft³
<em>(Note: ft</em><em>³</em><em> is the condensed form of cubic feet)</em>
You can pick whichever form your test directs you to use. They are both the same value though.
Hope this helps!
