To find the volume of a rectangular prism, we can use the formula [ V = l * w * h ]
V = 5 * 2 1/2 * 1 1/2
V = 12 1/2 * 1 1/2
V = 18 3/4cm³
Now that we know the volume, we can check each answer choice.
Option A:
5 ∙ 2 1/2 ∙ 1 1/2
12 1/2 * 1 1/2
18 3/4cm³
Option B:
12 1/2 ∙ 1 1/2
18 3/4cm³
Option C:
1 1/2(5 + 2 1/2)
1 1/2(7 1/2)
11 1/4cm³
Option D:
1/2(12 1/2 ∙ 1 1/2)
1/2(18 3/4)
9 3/8cm³
Therefore, the only correct options are A and B.
Best of Luck!
Answer: C) Cannot be done
Taking the square root of a negative number is not possible unless you involve complex numbers. If your teacher has not introduced that topic yet, then you just simply say "cannot be done" or something along those lines.
In elementary algebra, a trinomial is a polynomial consisting of three terms or monomials.
Pretty sure it's A. (X times .5 equals Y)
