B. 75

First you find the area of the triangle:

(base x height)/2
(3 x 5)/2
15/2
7.5

Then you multiply by the length of the prism (10):

7.5 x 10 = 75

Answer: The required solution is

$y(t)=-\dfrac{7}{3}e^{-t}+\dfrac{7}{3}e^{\frac{1}{5}t}.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following differential equation :

$5y^{\prime\prime}+3y^\prime-2y=0,~~~~~~~y(0)=0,~~y^\prime(0)=2.8~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

Let us consider that

$y=e^{mt}$ be an auxiliary solution of equation (i).

Then, we have

$y^prime=me^{mt},~~~~~y^{\prime\prime}=m^2e^{mt}.$

Substituting these values in equation (i), we get

$5m^2e^{mt}+3me^{mt}-2e^{mt}=0\\\\\Rightarrow (5m^2+3y-2)e^{mt}=0\\\\\Rightarrow 5m^2+3m-2=0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{since }e^{mt}\neq0]\\\\\Rightarrow 5m^2+5m-2m-2=0\\\\\Rightarrow 5m(m+1)-2(m+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (m+1)(5m-1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow m+1=0,~~~~~5m-1=0\\\\\Rightarrow m=-1,~\dfrac{1}{5}.$

So, the general solution of the given equation is

$y(t)=Ae^{-t}+Be^{\frac{1}{5}t}.$

Differentiating with respect to t, we get

$y^\prime(t)=-Ae^{-t}+\dfrac{B}{5}e^{\frac{1}{5}t}.$

According to the given conditions, we have

$y(0)=0\\\\\Rightarrow A+B=0\\\\\Rightarrow B=-A~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)$

and

$y^\prime(0)=2.8\\\\\Rightarrow -A+\dfrac{B}{5}=2.8\\\\\Rightarrow -5A+B=14\\\\\Rightarrow -5A-A=14~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{Uisng equation (ii)}]\\\\\Rightarrow -6A=14\\\\\Rightarrow A=-\dfrac{14}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow A=-\dfrac{7}{3}.$
