Answer:
The volume of the pyramid on the left is greater by 8 inches.
I think that the answer is 226.194 inches
Set up a proportion.
pounds / milligrams of medicine
195/279 = 130/x
195x = 279 times 130
195x =36,270
x = 36,270/195
x = 186
A patient weighing 130 pounds needs 186 milligrams of medicine.
To calculate the volume of the rectangular prism and the triangular prism you will multiply the area of the base by the height of the prism.
1. V = BH
V = lwH
12 x 8 x 4
V = 384 cubic inches
2. V = BH
V = 1/2bhH
1/2 x 12 x 2 x 18
V = 216 cubic feet
