Answer:

15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite figure consists of a square prism and a trapezoidal prism. By adding the volume of each, we obtain the volume of the composite figure.

The volume of the square prism is given by V=s^2\cdot h, where s is the base length and h is the height. Substituting given values, we have: V=14^2\cdot 30=196\cdot 30=5,880\:\mathrm{mm^3}

The volume of a trapezoidal prism is given by V=\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot l\cdot h, where b_1 and b_2 are bases of the trapezoid, l is the length of the height of the trapezoid and h is the height. This may look very confusing, but to break it down, we're finding the area of the trapezoid (base) and multiplying it by the height. The area of a trapezoid is given by the average of the bases (\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}) multiplied by the trapezoid's height (l).

Substituting given values, we get:

V=\frac{14+24}{2}\cdot (30-14)\cdot 30,\\V=19\cdot 16\cdot 30=9,120\:\mathrm{mm^3}}

Therefore, the total volume of the composite figure is 5,880+9,120=\boxed{15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}} (ah, perfect)

Alternatively, we can break the figure into a larger square prism and a triangular prism to verify the same answer:

V=30^2\cdot 14+\frac{1}{2}\cdot10\cdot 16\cdot 30=\boxed{15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}}\checkmark

Find the volume of the prism.
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The correct answer is first option.  270 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

Volume of prism = Base area * Height

Area of triangle = bh/2  where b - base and h - height

From the figure we can see that height of prism = 36 m

Base is a right angled triangle with base 5 m and height = 3 m

<u>To find the Base area</u>

Area of triangle = bh/2 = (3 * 5)/2 = 15/2 = 7.5

<u>To find the volume of prism</u>

Volume = Base area * height = 7.5 * 36 = 270 m³

Therefore the correct answer is first option . 270 m³

Tpy6a [65]

Answer: A cherry pie costs 9 and an apple pie cost 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let an apple pie be represented by a

Let an cherry pie be represented by c

Jennifer sold 12 cherry pies and 3 apple pies for a total of 144. This can be written as:

12c + 3a= 144

Jacob sold 2 cherry pies and 9 apple pies for a total for 126. This can be written as:

2c + 9a = 126

12c + 3a= 144 ............. i

2c + 9a = 126 ........... ii

Multiply equation i by 2

Multiply equation ii by 12

24c + 6a = 288 ........ iii

24c + 108a = 1512 ...... iv

Subtract iv from iii

-102a = -1224

a = 1224/102

a = 12

An apple pie costs 12

From equation i

12c + 3a= 144

12c + (3×12) = 144

12c + 36 = 144

12c = 144 - 36

12c = 108

c = 108/12

c = 9

A cherry pie costs 9
