Answer:

x=40.375

Step-by-step explanation:

Since HYV and AYB are similar, we know that the sides in each of the triangles with have the same ratio to each of their corresponding sides.

For example, YV/YB=YH/YA.

Now we have to find the ratio of the sides which can be done using the lengths of segments YB and YV. YB=16 YV=16+22=38 38/16=2.375

2.375 is our ratio.

Next we are going to find the length of YH so we can determine x.

YA=17 YH=17*2.375=40.375

The length of side YH=40.375 which is equal to x.

Answer:

24 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the volume of the prism. To do this, we multiply the length by the width by the height, so $1 \cdot 2 \cdot \frac {3}{2} = 3$ . Then, we need to find the volume of one small cube, which has a length, width, and height of $\frac {1}{2}$ , so $\frac {1}{2} \cdot \frac {1}{2} \cdot \frac {1}{2} = \frac {1}{8}$ . Then we divide the volume of the prism by the volume of a cube to find how many could fit, so $3 \div \frac {1}{8} = 24.$
