Answer:

Sean is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope tell the rate of the steepness of a line. Slope just telling you the rate, not the distance. You can't average the slope of two lines because the length of the line can be different.  

Let's say A at (0, 0) and B (100, 200) and C at (101, 206). These coordinate fulfill the slope said above, but the slope of AC is 206/101= 2.04.

Sean can be right, but only if the horizontal length(x-axis distance) of AB=BC. If that so, using the example similar to above the coordinate can be A(0, 0), B(100, 200), C (200, 800). In this case, the slope is equal to the average of both lines.

nalin [4]

Answer:

900cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cm= 10 mm

x=300mm (criss cross)

1cm*300mm/10mm= 10mm*x/10mm

30cm=x

30cm=300mm

1m=100cm

0.2m=x

1m*x/1m=0.2m*100cm/1m

x=0.2*100cm

x=20cm

0.2m=20cm

l=15cm

w=30cm

h=20cm

v=l*w*h

v=15cm*30cm*20cm

v=450cm^2*20cm

v=900cm^3
