Answer:

$\text{Volume of prism made by }\Delta XYZ=2304\text{ in}^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that both prisms are similar, so we can use proportions to solve for the volume of prism made by triangle XYZ.

Let us find the proportion between the sides of both triangles.

$\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{24}{36}$

$\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{12*2}{12*3}$

$\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{2}{3}$

Since for volume of triangular prism we multiply base area and height of the prism, this means we will have to multiply the proportion of each side length 3 times to find the proportion of volumes between our both prism.

So we can set proportion for volume of both prisms as:

$\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle PQR}}=(\frac{2}{3})^3$

$\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle PQR}}=\frac{8}{27}$

Upon substituting volume of prism made by triangle PQR we will get,

$\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{7776\text{in}^3}=\frac{8}{27}$

Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 7776 cubic inches.

$\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{7776\text{ in}^3}*7776\text{ in}^3=\frac{8}{27}*7776\text{ in}^3$

$\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}=8*288\text{ in}^3$

$\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}=2304\text{ in}^3$

Therefore, the volume of prism made by triangle XYZ is 2304 cubic inches.

Which strategie would eliminate a variable in the system of equations? −x+6y=8 7x−y=−2

NeX [460]

Answer:

substitution (or addition)

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple strategy for this system is to use substitution. The first equation is easily solved for x, so you could substitute that into the second equation:

x = 6y -8

7(6y -8) -y = -2 . . . . . x variable eliminated

__

The second equation is easily solved for y, so you could substitute that into the first equation.

y = 7x +2

-x +6(7x +2) = 8 . . . . . y-variable eliminated

__

The "addition" method is always a good way to eliminate a variable.

When the coefficient of a variable in one equation is a divisor of the coefficient of that variable in the other equation, a simple multiplication and addition will do.

To make the coefficient of x in the first equation the opposite of the coefficient of x in the second, multiply the first equation by 7. Adding that result to the second equation will eliminate x:

7(-x +6y) +(7x -y) = 7(8) +(-2)

42y -y = 56 -2 . . . . . . x-variable eliminated

Likewise, the second equation can be multiplied by 6 and added to the first to eliminate the y-variable:

(-x +6y) +6(7x -y) = (8) +6(-2)

-x +42x = -4 . . . . . . . . y-variable eliminated

__

It is often the case that using either substitution or "addition" requires about the same amount of work.

Here, the solutions are (x, y) = (-4/41, 54/41).

An airport offers 2 shuttles that run on different schedules. If both shuttles leave the airport at 4.00 pm at what time will th

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

4:18 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

An airport offers 2 shuttles that run on different schedules.If both shuttles leave the airport at 4:00 p.m.,at what time will they next leave theairport together.

Shuttle A leaves every 6 minutes

Shuttle B leaves every 9 minutes

Solution

To solve for when next both shuttles will leave the airport together, find the least common multiples of 6 minutes and 9 minutes

Shuttle A (every 6 minutes) = 6, 12, 18, 24

Shuttle B (every 9 minutes) = 9, 18, 27, 36

The least common multiples of 6 minutes and 9 minutes is 18 minutes

4:00 pm + 18 minutes

= 4:18 pm

The next time both shuttles will leave theairport together is 4:18 pm of the same day
