The base area of this second rectangular prism is 51 cm²

The rectangular prism completely filled with sand has a base area of 85cm² and height of 15cm .

<h3></h3><h3> volume of a rectangular prism</h3>
  • volume = Bh

where

B = base area

h = height

Since the first rectangular prism was completely filled with sand and it completely filled the second rectangular prism, it means they both have the same volume.

Therefore,

volume of the first rectangular prism = volume of the second rectangular prism.

  • volume  = Bh
  • volume = 85 × 15
  • volume = 1275 cm³

Therefore, the base area of the second rectangular prism can be calculated as follows:

volume = Bh

1275 = 25B

B = 1275 / 25

B = 51 cm²

The wildflowers at a national park have been decreasing in numbers. There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park
bonufazy [111]

Year      New flowers

1                 1200

2                 300

3                   75

There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park started tracking them. Since then, there have been one fourth as many new flowers each year

Initially there are 1200 flowers and start decreasing by \frac{1}{4}

So first term is 1200 and common ratio is \frac{1}{4}.

Its a geometric sequence so summation becomes

i =1∑ ∞ 1200(\frac{1}{4})^{i-1}

Now we find the sum

We use sum formula

Sum = \frac{a}{1-r}

Where a is the first term , a= 1200

r is the common ratio , r= 1/4

Sum = \frac{1200}{1-(\frac{1}{4})}

Sum = \frac{1200}{\frac{3}{4}}

Sum = 1600 wildflowers
