Answer:
The second one down
Step-by-step explanation:
The 26 ft ladder is the hypotenuse of the right triangle
24 feet is the vertical leg
-----------------------------------------------
Define x :
-----------------------------------------------
Let the smallest number be x.
The other two numbers will be x+1 and x+2.
-----------------------------------------------
Construct equation :
-----------------------------------------------
The sum of all 3 numbers is 78
⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 78
-----------------------------------------------
Solve x :
-----------------------------------------------
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 78
3x + 3 = 78
3x = 78 - 3
3x = 75
x = 25
-----------------------------------------------
Answer: Smallest number = 25

One prism with a volume of 2400 might have a rectangular base with a length of 4 and a width of 5, as well as a height of 120.
V = l x w x h
V = 4 x 5 x 120
V = 2400
This prism would essentially look like a really tall rectangle, since the height is such a large number. I wouldn't accurately represent the units on graph paper, if I were you. Just label the sides with the numbers I gave you.
Another prism with a volume of 2400 might be a rectangular prism with a length of 8, a width of 10, and a height of 30.
V = l x w x h
V= 8 x 10 x 30
V = 2400
This would also be a tall rectangle, although it isn't as tall. Keep in mind that l x w x h is only the volume formula for a rectangular prism. I only used rectangular prisms because they would be the easiest for this example. A triangular prism has a different volume formula.
