Answer:

A = 3x² - x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

the area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = length × width , then

A = (3x + 5)(x - 2)

each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor.

A = 3x(x - 2) + 5(x - 2) ← distribute parenthesis

= 3x² - 6x + 5x - 10 ← collect like terms

= 3x² - x - 10

Answer:

A = 3x² - x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

A = length × width

A = (3x + 5)(x - 2)

A = 3x(x - 2) + 5(x - 2)

A = 3x² - 6x + 5x - 10

A = 3x² - x - 10

A wedge of cheese is shaped like a triangular prism. The wedge of cheese is 7 inches tall. The base of the cheese is shaped like

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

193 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a triangular prism:

The volume of a triangular prism is the base area multiplied by the wedge, that is:

$V = A_bw$

The base area is one half times the triangle base times it's height, so:

$V = 0.5*b*h*w$

The wedge of cheese is 7 inches tall.

This means that $w = 7$

The base of the cheese is shaped like a triangle with a base of 11 and a height of 5 inches.

This means that $b = 11, h = 5$

Volume:

$V = 0.5*b*h*w = 0.5*11*5*7 = 192.5$

Rounding, approximately 193 in.
