Given:

The volume of a prism with equilateral triangular cross-section is 270cm³.

Length of the prism = 10\sqrt{3} cm

To find:

The length of the side of the equilateral triangular cross-section.

Solution:

Formulae used:

Area of an equilateral triangle is

Area=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2

Where a is the side length of equilateral triangle.

Volume of prism is

V=Bh

Where, B is base area and h is the height of the triangular prism.

Cross section of the prism is an equilateral triangular so the base area of the prism is  \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2 sq. cm.

The volume of the prism is

V=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2\times 10\sqrt{3}

270=\dfrac{10(3)}{4}a^2

270=\dfrac{30}{4}a^2

270=7.5a^2

Divide both sides by 7.5.

\dfrac{270}{7.5}=a^2

36=a^2

\pm \sqrt{36}=a

6=a

It takes only positive value because the side cannot be negative.

Therefore, the length of the side of the equilateral triangular cross-section is 6 cm.

5t-14=-14<br> solve the equation for t
ikadub [295]

Hi there!


Before we begin, let's rewrite your equation. :)


5t - 14 = -14


Step 1) Add 14 to both sides.


5t - 14 + 14 = -14 + 14 5t = 0


Step 2) Divide both sides by 5.


\frac{5t}{5} =  \frac{0}{5}


t = 0


Final Answer -


t = 0


Hope this helps!

Message me if you need anymore help! :D

A grid model with 100 squares. 73 squares are shaded. What percent of the model is shaded? What is the equivalent ratio? What is
viva [34]

Answer:

73%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you'll divide the total squares by 100 to get how much is one percent. Then, you divide the shaded squares by the value of 1%. And you'll get how many percents are shaded.

For equivalent decimal, you divide the number by 100.

Then for equivalent decimal, you get the percent and 100.

p =100/100=1\\73/1=73\\=0.73\\=\frac{73}{100}
