Can anyone explain this question to me? My teacher solved it but I didn’t understand how she did it

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the space a figure takes, we need to find the volume. Volume of a rectangular prism can be found by multiplying the length, width, and height of the figure.

We can start with the green block. The dimensions of this figure are 6cm, 3cm, and 3cm. The 5cm at the bottom is not a dimension of the green figure. Instead, it shows the total width of both blocks. We will use this later.

Back to the first block, we will find its volume by multiplying its dimensions together.

3 · 3 · 6 = 54

So, the volume of the first block is 54 cm³.

To this, we will add the volume of the blue block. We can find its dimensions with some simple deduction.

The picture shows that the height of the figure is 4cm less than the height of the green one, 6cm.

6 - 4 = 2

The height, then, is 2cm.

The width can be found by subtracting the width of the green block from the total width of both figures, 5cm.

5 - 3 = 2

So, the width is also 2cm.

We can see that the length of the blue block is equal to that of the green one, so we know that the length is 3cm.

Now, multiply all the dimensions we have found together.

2 · 2 · 3 = 12

The volume of the blue block is 12cm³.

We have found the volumes of both figures, so now we can add them both together to find the total.

54 + 12 = 66

So, the total volume is 66cm³.

I hope this was a satisfactory explanation ^^ Good luck, mate

A new field has a perimeter of 220 m and a width of 62 m. A bag of canola seed will cover 185 m2 of ground. How many bags of can
siniylev [52]

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the field is a rectangle, the perimeter is found through the equation:

P = 2l + 2w

Since we know the perimeter and width, we can substitute and solve for the length.

(220) = 2l + 2(62)\\220 = 2l + 124\\96 = 2l\\l = 48\\

Using the length and width, we can find the area.

A = lw\\A = (48)(62)\\A = 2976

The area is 2976 squared meters. We divide by the area a bag of canola seed can cover and round up if necessary to find the total number of bags.

n = 2976 / 185\\n = 16.09

Because we need a whole bag in order to cover for the decimal area, we round up to 17 bags.

Find two integers whose sum is -3 and product is -18
Mariulka [41]

let two integers be x and y

A.T.Q

x+y= -3

or, x= -3-y(i)

and xy= -18

or,(-3-y)y= -18[by(i)]

or,- -3y-y²= -18

or,-y²= -18+3

or, -y²= -15

or, y²=15

therefore y=✓15

from (i)

x= -3-✓15

y=√15

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (5, -1) and
trapecia [35]

Answer:

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find the slope by using the slope formula and get 0. Now, choose one coordinate and plug it into the equation y = mx + b along with the slope. If you chose the first coordinate, the equation would be -1 = (0)(5) + b. After solving for b (the y-intercept) you would get -1. Lastly, you rewrite the equation as y = -1.
