Answer:
c. 40
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the prism is 31.25 cm cubed.
Therefore the container has a higher volume.
35 - 31.25 is 3.75.
The difference is 3.75
Width = x
length = x+10
Area of deck = 144 square feet
Area = length * width
144 = x(x+10)
Solving for x in a quadratic:
x²+10x = 144
x²+10x-144 = 0
Factor:
(x+18)(x-8) = 0
Solving for x:
x = 8, x = -18
Dimensions cannot be negative, therefore x = 8, only.
Length = x + 10
Length = 18
Width = 8
