8*a=32
32:8=a
4=a
4+26=b
30=b
Answer:
i believe the answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
make 2 and 2/3 a decimal
2 divided by 3 will give you .6 repeating. just round to .8
then divide 48 by 2.8
it will give you 17.142
i just rounded it to 18... bc its so close to it
<u>hope this helps :)</u>

Answer:
1296√3 cubic units
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the prism will be the product of its base area and its height. Since it circumscribes a sphere with diameter 12, that is the height of the prism.
The central cross section of the sphere is a circle of radius 6, and that will be the size of the incircle of the base. That is, the base will have an altitude of 3 times that incircle radius, and an edge length of 2√3 times that incircle radius. Hence the area of the triangular base is ...
B = (1/2)(6×2√3)(6×3) = 108√3 . . . . . square units
The volume of the prism is then ...
V = Bh = (108√3)(12) = 1296√3 . . . cubic units

<em>Comment on the geometry</em>
The centroid of an equilateral triangle is also the incenter and the circumcenter. The distance of that center from any edge of the triangle is 1/3 the height of the triangle. So, for an inradius of 6, the triangle height is 3×6 = 18. The side length of an equilateral triangle is 2/√3 times the altitude, so is 12√3 units for this triangle.
