The correct answer is 720 I did this problem long time ago hope this helps :)
First of all there are multiple formula's to get the volume of a trapezoidal prism:
V=(1/2 * (base1 + base2) * h) * height prism
Using the numbers you gave:
base1 = 7 base2 = 5 h = 4 height prism = 8
Putting this into the equation: V=(1/2 * (7 <span>+ 5) * 4) * 8
V= (1/2 * 12 * 4) * 8
V = 24 * 8
V = 192
The volume of the gift box is 191 inches squared.</span>
When I solved it I got 26648.8
The area of the original polygon is:
A = 225 m ^ 2
The similar polygon area is:
A '= (k ^ 2) * (A)
Substituting values:
3 * 225 = (k ^ 2) * (225)
Clearing k we have:
k ^ 2 = 3
k = (3) ^ (1/3)
Answer:
The length of each side increased by:
k = (3) ^ (1/3)
