Answer:  "A triangular prism has a height of 15 inches and a base area of 20 square inches. The volume of the prism is 300 cubic inches."

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>"A triangular prism has a height of 15 inches and a base area of 20 square inches. The volume of the prism is 300 square inches."</em>

"A triangular prism has a height of 15 inches and a base area of 20 square inches. The volume of the prism is 300 square inches."

There is the error, we measure volume in cubic inches.

The writing should read- "A triangular prism has a height of 15 inches and a base area of 20 square inches. The volume of the prism is 300 cubic inches."

In an arithmetic sequence {an}, if a1 = 5 and d = 3, the first 4 terms in the sequence are
noname [10]
A1 represents the first term

d represents the common difference.....and since the common difference is 3, u have to add 3 to each term to find the next term....because with an arithmetic sequence u add to find the next term, whereas, in a geometric sequence u multiply to find the next term

5...first term
5 + 3 = 8...2nd term
8 + 3 = 11...3rd term
11 + 3 = 14...4th term

ur answer is B

Find what equals to x and what equals to y
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

x=15√2  y=90 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Thanks to the Pythagorean Theorem we know that with any right triangle, A^2+B^2=C^2. In this case we can use 15^2+15^2=sqrt of 450. The square root of 450 is 15 times the square root of 2. Thus x=15√2. Now we need to find y. All angles in a triangle add up to 180 so if we have 45+45+y=180 then y=90.

Help quick! I'll mark your answer as the brainliest if your answer is correct!
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

They would never intersect because they are parallel lines. You can tell they are parallel lines because they have the same slope and they have a different y-intercept. However, this doesn't mean that there was no solutions, there were, thats how i was able to tell what their slopes and y-intercepts were. So if there is an answer that you can choose from that explains that they won't intersect because they are parallel then that is the correct answer. It may be C, but I would see if there is another option.

Step-by-step explanation:

contains (0, 3) and (3, 0)

slope = (3-0)/(0-3)=3/-3=-1

f(x)=-x+b

b=3

f(x)=-x+3
