Answer:  son is 12 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m be the age of mother, f be the age of father, and s be the age of son.

m + f + s = 28 x 3 = 84

m + son = 23 x 2 = 46

f + s = 25 x 2 = 50

m = 46 - s

f = 50 - s

we plug in m and f to the functions.

we get 46 - s + 50 - s + s = 84  

96 - s = 84  

-s = -12  

s = 12 years old

55x=1300
divide both sides by 55

What is the volume of this prism
goldfiish [28.3K]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{\text{A. } 320 cm^3}

We can begin by finding the area of the base in order to solve for the volume.

Use the formula for the area of a trapezoid:

A = 1/2(b1 + b2)h

Substitute the given values:

A = 1/2(10 + 6)5

A = 1/2(16)5

A = 40 cm²

Multiply by the depth of the prism to solve for the volume:

40 × 8 = 320 cm³
