Answer:
<em>Option D: 159 3/8 cm^3 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let us rewrite the dimensions, and the options to make this a little more clear ~ (dimensions) 5 cm, 8 1/2 cm, 3 3/4 cm ⇒ (options) 17 1/4 cm^3, 18 3/4 cm^3, 27 1/4 cm^3, and 159 3/8 cm^3
2. To find the volume of most 3-dimensional figures, you would have to multiply the Base * height, so for a rectagular prism ⇒ <em>Base * height = length * width * height</em>
3. Substitute and compute the volume through algebra:
5 cm * 8 1/2 cm * 3 3/4 cm =
5 cm * 17/2 cm * 15/4 cm =
85/2 cm^2 * 15/4 cm =
1275/8 cm^3 =
<em>159 3/8 cm^3</em>
4. This means that the<em> Volume of the Rectangular Prism = 159 3/8 cm^3 (Option D)</em>
Bror cancelled terms which should NEVER be done.
x² + 3x + 2 / (x + 2) =
(x+1) * (x+2) / (x+2)
Cancelling the (x+2) factor we get
x + 1
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
3 ln(x) + 2 ln (4)= ln(128)
a ln (b) = ln b^a
In(x^3) + In (4^2)= In(128)
In(x^3) + In (16)= In(128)
ln a + ln b = ln (ab)
In(16x^3) = In(128)
raise each side to the power of e
e^ In(16x^3) = e ^In(128)
e^ ln cancels out
(16x^3) = (128)
divide by 16
(16x^3)/16 = (128)/16
x^3 = 8
take the cube root on each side
(x^3)^1/3 = 8^ 1/3
x =2
