<u>Answer:</u>

Lengths of the sides (there are 3 sides in an equilateral triangle) of the base of prism is <u>5.72cm </u>each.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

As the base of triangular prism is equilateral:

∴ Area of base = (√ 3 / 4)× (side)²

According to question:

height of prism = height (side) of base

Volume of prism = 81 cm³,

∴ Volume of prism = Area of base x height

⇒  81 cm³ = (√ 3 / 4)× (side)² × height       ∵ side = height

⇒   81 cm³ = (√ 3 / 4)× (side)³

⇒  81 × (4/√3) cm³ = side³    

⇒  ∛(81 × (4/√3) cm = side

⇒  side = <u>5.72cm</u>

what is the probability of rolling 6 five times in a row? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.
qaws [65]

Answer:

1/7776.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of rolling a six in 1 throw = 1/6.

Rolling   a 6 5 times in a row = (1/6)^5

= 1/7776.

The probability is multiplied because each roll is independent from other rolls.

HELP<br> Write an equation of a line passing through (-8, 6) and parallel to the line y=-4x - 1
MArishka [77]

The line is parallel so it has the same slope as the other line, -4.

Substitute the x and y variables with the given points and find the y-intercept.

(-8, 6)

y = -4x + b

6 = -4(8) + b

6 = -32 + b

6 + 32 = b

38 = b

So the equation is:

y = -4 + 38

3y - 5x = 9<br> Y= -5/3x-12<br> Are the parallel
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Both lines are not parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Two lines equation are as :

3y - 5x = 9   And  y = - \frac{5}{3}x - 12

First line is now written in eq y = mx + c

Or,    3y = 5x + 9

Or,      y = \frac{5}{3}x +  \frac{9}{3}

So, Slop of this line ( m 1 ) =  \frac{5}{3}

     slop of second line ( m 2) is  \frac{- 5}{3}

∵ The slop of both lines are not equal , so the line are not parallel to each other .

Hence Both lines are not parallel     Answer
