Answer:

The width of the prism is 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volume of the prism = 170 cm³

The length of the prism = 5 cm

The height of the prism = 17 cm

The volume of the prism is given by the  relationship v = Length, l × Height, h × Width, w

Therefore;

The volume of the prism = 5 cm × 17 cm × w = 170 cm³

Which gives;

w = 170 cm³/(5 cm × 17 cm) = 170 cm³/(85 cm) = 2 cm

∴ The width of the prism = 2 cm.

The perimeter of the norwegian flag is 190 inches. What are the dimensions of the flag?
mario62 [17]
<span>The dimensions are 40 inches by 55 inches.

Explanation<span>:
We know that perimeter is the sum of all of the sides. Since this is rectangular, opposite sides are equal. This gives us
y+11/8y+y+11/8y=190.

Combining like terms, we have
2y+22/8y=190.

Writing 22/8 as a mixed number, we have
2y+2 3/4y=190
4 3/4y=190.

Divide both sides by 4 3/4:
(4 3/4y)</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4)=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4)
y=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4).

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:
y=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(19/4).

To divide fractions, flip the second one and multiply:
 y=190*(4/19)=760/19=40.

Since y=40, 11/8y=11/8(40)=440/8=55.</span></span>

Jake went on a riverboat tour. After returning from the tour, he was curious to know the speed at which the boat was going. Duri
atroni [7]
I'm sorry I'm too lazy to read all of that. However, I did get the main point. The river was going at 3 mph. Since he wanted to travel 10 miles upstream and downstream, you would have to subtract 20 by 3. This would mean he was going at a speed of 17 mph.

P=100a÷t solve for a
pishuonlain [190]

<u><em>a=1/100pt is the correct answer.</em></u> First you had to multiply by t from both sides of equation, and it gave us, ⇒ pt=100a. And then you had to flip an equation, and it gave us, ⇒100a=pt. You can also divide by one-hundred (100) from both sides of equation, and it gave us, \frac{100a}{100}=\frac{pt}{100}. And finally, and it gave us the answer is a=1/100pt is the final answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie

ivann1987 [24]

Question

The table shows the heights in a basketball team.

Height: 198, 199, 200, 201, 202

a.) Work out the mean height of the team. Round you answer to 1d.p.

That, I have worked out is 200.3

b.) A new player joins the team and raises the mean average height to 201cm. Work out the height of the new player.

Answer:

206 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the fiven numbers, 198+199+200+201+202=1000

For a mean of 201, the product should be 201*6=1206

The difference of the two is equivalent to the height of the other person hence 1206-1000=206 cm

Therefore, the height is 206 cm
