Answer:

The volume of the second rectangular  prism is  576 cm³ .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The volume of a rectangular prism varies jointly with the length and width when the height remains constant.

Let us assume that the length is denoted by L .

Let us assume that the Breadth is denoted by B.

Thus

V \propto L\times B

V = L × B ×  H

where H is the constant of variation

The volume of a rectangular prism is 672 cubic centimeters and has a length of 8 centimeters and a width of 14 centimeters.

Volume (V) = 672 cm

Length (L) = 8 cm

Width (B) = 14 cm

Put all the values in the above

672 = 8 × 14 ×  H

672 = 112H

H = \frac{672}{112}

H = 6

As given

A second prism has a length of 12 centimeters and a width of 8 centimeters.

Length = 12 cm

Width =  8 cm

Height = 6cm

Put all the values in V = L × B ×  H .

V = 12 × 8  ×  6

V = 576 cm³

Therefore the volume of the second rectangular  prism is  576 cm³ .

The volume of the second prism is 576 cubic centimeters. Since both prisms have the same height, I solved for the height using the data given with the first prism (I got 6 centimeters for the height). And then I calculated for the volume of the second prism.

Combine likes terms to create an equivalent expression 1/7 - 3(3/7h -2/7)
Anastasy [175]

\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7}) = \frac{7-9h}{7}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7})

We have to combine the like terms

From given expression,

\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7})

By distributive property,

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

a(b + c) = ab + bc

Therefore,

Solve for brackets using distributive property

\frac{1}{7} - (3 \times \frac{3}{7}h) + (3 \times \frac{2}{7})\\\\\frac{1}{7} - \frac{9h}{7} + \frac{6}{7}

Add 1/7 and 6/7

\frac{1}{7} + \frac{6}{7} -\frac{9h}{7}\\\\\frac{1+6}{7} -\frac{9h}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{7}{7}-\frac{9h}{7}\\\\1-\frac{9h}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{7-9h}{7}

Thus the equivalent expression is found
