A rectangular prism has a length of 12 feet, a width of 6 feet, and a height of 2 feet.
1 answer:
The volume of the prism is 144 ft^3. If we use the letter V to represent volume, the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is V=length*width*height. When you plug in the numbers, the equation is V=12*6*2. When you multiply these three numbers together, you get 144. Because you are finding the volume, your units are cubed, so your answer is 144 ft^3. I have attached an image of this problem written out (I’m sorry if the image is bad, I drew it on my phone). If you need any more help or any clarification, please let me know and I will be happy to help!

Write the vertex form of the equation and find the necessary coefficient to make it work.
.. y = a*(x +3)^2 -2
.. = ax^2 +6ax +9a -2
You require the y-intercept to be 7. So, for x=0, you have
.. 9a -2 = 7
.. 9a = 9
.. a = 1
The equation you seek is
.. y = x^2 +6x +7
.. y = a*(x +3)^2 -2
