Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{KL}{EF}$ = $\frac{JK}{DE}$ , substitute values

$\frac{6x+3}{x+11}$ = $\frac{25}{10}$ ( cross- multiply )

10(6x + 3) = 25(x + 11) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

60x + 30 = 25x + 275 ( subtract 25x from both sides )

35x + 30 = 275 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

35x = 245 ( divide both sides by 35 )

x = 7

Then

KL = 6x + 3 = 6(7) + 3 = 42 + 3 = 45 → b

Boxes hold various numbers of square-based prisms in a single column. The square base of each prism has a side length of 18 inch

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

$b(V) = \frac{V}{108}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The square base of each prism has a side length of 18 inches. The height of each prism, h, can be found using the function, where V is the volume of the prism.

So, V = 18² × h = 324h

⇒ h = $\frac{V}{324}$ .......... (1)

Now, given that the total height of the box, b, can be found using the function b(h) = xh, where x is the number of square-based prisms in a specific box.

Therefore, the box having 4 square prism will have height

b(h) = 3h

⇒ b(V) = $3 \times \frac{V}{324}$ {From equation (1)}
