Answer:
12 in squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the side on the bigger figure is 6 and the smaller figure‘s side is 3, that means the smaller figure is half the size of the big figure.
So.. 24 divided by 2 is 12
A(n) = –3 • 2⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾
for n = 1 , A₁ = -3.(2)⁰ = -3
for n = 2 , A₂ = -3.(2)¹ = -6
for n = 3 , A₃ = -3.(2)² = -12
for n = 4 , A₄ = -3.(2)³ = -24
...........................................
for n = 8 , A₈ = -3.(2)⁷ = -384

Answer:
A) (3 cm x 4 cm ÷ 2) x 3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume is the product of the area of the triangular bases and the distance between them.
Each right triangular base has a width of 3 cm and a height of 4 cm. Its area will be given by ...
A = (1/2)bh
A = (1/2)(3 cm)(4 cm) = (3 cm × 4 cm) ÷ 2
__
The distance between the triangular bases is marked at the left side of the diagram as 3 cm. So, the volume is ...
V = Bh
V = (3 cm × 4 cm ÷ 2) × 3 cm . . . . . matches choice A
There aren't any more steps. The answer starts by saying how the volume is computed. Then it shows how to find the numbers that go into that computation. Finally, it puts all that together in the form that is required to match an answer choice.
It might also be useful for you to draw the net to scale on a piece of paper, cut it out, and fold it along the lines to actually make a triangular prism. A little hands-on is always helpful in math. It only takes 5 or 10 minutes and can give you great insight into both prisms and nets.
