A box in the shape of a right rectangular prism has a length of 8.5 inches, a width of 4.5 inches, and a height of 3.75 inches,
jeyben [28]
Just multiply all of them because Volume = Length x Width x Height. So it's 8.5 x 4.5 x 3.75. That equals 143.4375. Cubic inches is just there after you multiply, so you don't have to convert anything. So it's 143.4375 cubic inches.

-4(n - 6) = 12<br><br> Solve the Equation.
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
-4(n - 6) = 12

n - 6 = -12/4   divide both sides by -4

n - 6 = -3

n = -3 + 6    add both sides by 6

n = 3

hope that helps, God bless!
