3⁹ is the same as doing:
3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3
What I would do it is narrow it down piece by piece.
3 * 3 * 3 = 27. Do that 3 times, now you are left with:
27 * 27 * 27
27 * 27 or 27² = 729.
That leaves you with:
729 * 27
You can multiply by hand or use a calculator to get your answer of 19683.
To check your answer, plug 3⁹ into a calculator. Your answer should match this.
The pentagon is the one with 5 sides. Good Luck!
V=x³-7x+6, V=(x-2)(x+3)*h
(x-2)(x+3)*h=x³-7x+6
h{x²+x-6}=x³-7x+6
h=(x³-7x+6)/(x²+x-6)
Therefore h=x-1
-----------------------------
Check answer:
V=(x-2)(x+3)(x-1)
=(x-1)(x²+x-6)
=x(x²+x-6)-1(x²+x-6)
=x³+x²-6x-x²-x+6
=x³-6x-x+6
=x³-7x+6
