Answer:
The prism is 3 by 3 by 1.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The prism has a length x and a width x. Since it is a square at the base both length and width are the same amount x. The height is "half the length of one edge of the base". Since the base is x, this makes it 1/2x.
The volume's prism is found using V = l*w*h. Substitute and simplify.
13.5 = x*x*1/2x
13.5 = 1/2 x^3
27 = x^3
3 = x
The prism is 3 by 3 by 1.5.
Answer:
There are 7123 boxes of ice cream left in the factory
Step-by-step explanation:
Initially produced in factory : 6911 boxes
135 boxes are sold, so the factory now has 6911 - 135 = 6776
347 more boxes are produced, so we add this number to what there was in the factory: 6776 + 347 = 7123
First distribute the -3 and the - sign
6x + 24 + 5x - 6
Combine like terms
11x + 18
