Step-by-step explanation:

DE/CE=AB/CB

6/10=100/(CE+BE)

6/10=100/(10+BE)

reducing fraction

3/5=100/(10+BE)

3(10+BE)/5 =100

3(10+BE)=500

BE=(500/3)-10

BE=470/3

BE=156.67ft

Help please I don’t understand it show work

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you solve for length width and height, which multiplied equal volume. The only constant you have is that the width of the prism is 1/3 of its length.

WIDTH: 3 centimeters

LENGTH: Since the width is 1/3 of the length, 3 is 1/3 of something. So divide 3 by 1/3 to get 9. You can also just multiply 3 by 3.

HEIGHT: The height is half of the width, which is 3. Therefore 3 divided by 2 is 1.5.

Now multiply the values. 3 multiplied by 9 multiplied by 1.5

The answer is 40.5

CENTIMETERS!!!
