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."

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

4V = 3U

Step-by-step explanation:

The final cost of a sale item is determined by multiplying the price on the tag by 75%.

Let us assume that the final cost of the sale item is V and the price on the tag is given by U.

Then the equation that best describes the function that represents the situation is V = \frac{75U}{100} =\frac{3U}{4}

⇒ 4V = 3U  (Answer)

Well the area of a trapezoid is defined by the following formula:
A = \frac{1}{2}(b_{1} + b_{2})h where b₁ and b₂ are the bases of the trapezoid and h is the height of the trapezoid.

Let's plug in what we know into this formula:
h = 7  the perpendicular distance between the two bases
b₁ = 15  the shorter parallel side
b₂ = 25  the longer parallel side made up of 4 + 15 + 6
so, A = \frac{1}{2} (15+25)(7)=140

This is in square units of measure of course, so 140 in²
