Answer:

C. two real solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Your quadratic matches the form ...

ax^2 +bx +c = 0

for the values a=2, b=7, c=-15.

The discriminant is ...

d = b^2 -4ac

For your values of a, b, c, the discriminant value is ...

d = 7^2 -4(2)(-15) = 169

The discriminant is positive, indicating there are two real solutions.

_____

When the discriminant is negative, there are no real solutions, only complex solutions.

When the discriminant is zero, there is one real solution.

This equation factors as (2x-3)(x+5) = 0 and has solutions x=3/2, x=-5.

Find the volume of the cubes or rectangular prisms in cubic centimeters.

DanielleElmas [232]

a) Volume of Rectangular prism is $\frac{36}{125}\,\,cm^3$

b) Volume of cube is $\frac{8}{125}\,\,cm^3$

c) Volume of cube is $\frac{1}{125}\,\,cm^3$

d) Volume of Rectangular prism is $\frac{6}{125}\,\,cm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a)

Volume of rectangular prism with

length= $\frac{3}{5}\,\,cm$

width= $\frac{4}{5}\,\,cm$

height = $\frac{3}{5}\,\,cm$

The formula used to find Volume of rectangular prism is:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,rectangular\,\,prism=length*width*height$

Putting values:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,rectangular\,\,prism=\frac{3}{5} *\frac{4}{5} *\frac{3}{5}\\Volume\,\,of\,\,rectangular\,\,prism=\frac{36}{125}\,\,cm^3$

So, Volume of Rectangular prism is $\frac{36}{125}\,\,cm^3$

Part b)

Volume of cube with side length of $\frac{2}{5}\,\,cm$

The formula used to find Volume of cube is:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cube=length^3$

Putting value of length and finding volume:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cube=length^3\\Volume\,\,of\,\,cube=(\frac{2}{5})^3\\ Volume\,\,of\,\,cube=\frac{8}{125}\,\,cm^3$

So, Volume of cube is $\frac{8}{125}\,\,cm^3$

Part c)

Volume of cube with side length of $\frac{1}{5}\,\,cm$

The formula used to find Volume of cube is:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cube=length^3$

Putting value of length and finding volume:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cube=length^3\\Volume\,\,of\,\,cube=(\frac{1}{5})^3\\ Volume\,\,of\,\,cube=\frac{1}{125}\,\,cm^3$

So, Volume of cube is $\frac{1}{125}\,\,cm^3$

Part d)

Volume of rectangular prism with

length= $\frac{1}{5}\,\,cm$

width= $\frac{2}{5}\,\,cm$

height = $\frac{3}{5}\,\,cm$

The formula used to find Volume of rectangular prism is:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,rectangular\,\,prism=length*width*height$

Putting values:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,rectangular\,\,prism=\frac{1}{5} *\frac{2}{5} *\frac{3}{5}\\Volume\,\,of\,\,rectangular\,\,prism=\frac{6}{125}\,\,cm^3$

So, Volume of Rectangular prism is $\frac{6}{125}\,\,cm^3$
