Nine times the original volume

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length, width and height of the rectangular prism be 'l' 'w' and 'h'.

The volume of the rectangular prism is given by,

V = W x l x h

The original volume of the rectangular prism is,

V = wlh

Here the length is 1.5 the original length

So, l = 1.5 x l = (1.5l)

And the with is doubled. So,

W = 2W

The height is tripled. So,

h = 3h

Volume of the new rectangular prism is,

V = (1.5l) (2w) (3h)

V = 9 wlh

We know that wlh is the original volume of the rectangular prism.

So the new volume is 9 times the original volume.

Let A be a set of numbers.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

a. closed under addition and multiplication

b. not closed under addition but closed under multiplication.

c. not closed under addition and multiplication

d. closed under addition and multiplication

e. not closed under addition but closed under multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be a set of all integers divisible by 5.

Let $x,y$ ∈A such that $x=5m\,,\,y=5n$

Find $x+y,xy$

$x+y=5m+5n=5(m+n)$

So, $x+y$ is divisible by 5.

$xy=(5m)(5n)=25mn=5(5mn)$

So,

$xy$ is divisible by 5.

Therefore, A is closed under addition and multiplication.

Let A = { 2n +1 | n ∈ Z}

Let $x,y$ ∈A such that $x=2m+1\,,\,y=2n+1$ where m, n ∈ Z.

Find $x+y,xy$

$x+y=2m+1+2n+1=2m+2n+2=2(m+n+1)$

So,

$x+y$ ∉ A

$xy=(2m+1)(2n+1)=4mn+2m+2n+1=2(2mn+m+n)+1$

So,

$xy$ ∈ A

Therefore, A is not closed under addition but A is closed under multiplication.

$Let A=\{2,5,8,11,14,...\}$

Let $x=2,y=5$ but $x+y=2+5=7$ ∉A

Also,

$xy=2(5)=10$ ∉A

Therefore, A is not closed under addition and multiplication.

Let A = { 17n: n∈Z}

Let $x,y$ ∈ A such that $x=17n,y=17m$

Find x + y and xy

$x+y=17n+17m=17(n+m)$

$xy=(17m)(17n)=289mn=17(17mn)$

So,

$x+y,xy$ ∈ A

Therefore, A is closed under addition and multiplication.

Let A be the set of nonzero real numbers.

Let $x,y$ ∈ A such that $x=-1,y=1$

Find x + y

$x+y=-1+1=0$

So,

$x+y$ ∈ A

Also, if x and y are two nonzero real numbers then xy is also a non-zero real number.

Therefore, A is not closed under addition but A is closed under multiplication.
