Answer:
Volume of water and air is 3,000 mm³
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of base = 15 mm
Width of base = 20 mm
Height of figure = 30 mm
Find:
Volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes.
Computation:
Height of each rectangular pyramid = Height of figure / 2
Height of each rectangular pyramid = 30 / 2
Height of each rectangular pyramid = 15 mm
Volume of each rectangular pyramid = lbh / 3
Volume of each rectangular pyramid = [15 × 20 × 15] / 3
Volume of each rectangular pyramid = [4,500] / 3
Volume of each rectangular pyramid = 1,500 mm³
Volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes = 2 × Volume of each rectangular pyramid
Volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes = 2 × 1,500
Volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes = 3,000 mm³
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
 The number of wreaths Alaina sells is 9 .
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
Alaina is selling wreaths and poinsettias for her chorus fundraiser. 
Wreaths cost $27 each poinsettia cost $20 each.
 If she sold 15 poinsettias and made $543.
 Let us assume that the number of wreaths Alaina sells = x
 As the number of poinsettias  Alaina sells = 15
Than the equation becomes
27x + 15 × 20 = 543
27x + 300 = 543
27x  = 543 - 300
27x  = 243

x = 9 
Therefore the number of wreaths Alaina sells is 9 .
