Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of a rectangular prism be VR and that of right triangular prism be VT. If The volume of the rectangular prism is 32 cubic feet more than the volume of the right triangular prism, then VR = 32 + VT

Since VR = length * width and height

VR = 6*x*3

VR = 18x ft³

Also VT =  Length *width * Height/2

VT = (7 * x * 4)/2

VT = 28x/2

VT = 14xft³

Since VR = 32 + VT

18x = 32+(14x)

collect like terms

18x-14x = 32

4x = 32

divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 32/4

x = 8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 18x

Volume of the rectangular prism = 18*8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 144ft³

Volume of the right triangular prism = 14x

Volume of the rectangular prism = 14*8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 112ft³

Answer:

rectangular is 114ft and triangular is 112ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of a rectangular prism be VR and that of right triangular prism be VT. If The volume of the rectangular prism is 32 cubic feet more than the volume of the right triangular prism, then VR = 32 + VT

Since VR = length * width and height

VR = 6*x*3

VR = 18x ft³

Also VT =  Length *width * Height/2

VT = (7 * x * 4)/2

VT = 28x/2

VT = 14xft³

Since VR = 32 + VT

18x = 32+(14x)

collect like terms

18x-14x = 32

4x = 32

divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 32/4

x = 8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 18x

Volume of the rectangular prism = 18*8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 144ft³

Volume of the right triangular prism = 14x

Volume of the rectangular prism = 14*8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 112ft³

A car is traveling at a constant speed of 46 miles per hour. the formula for the distance traveled at the end of t hours is d=46
jonny [76]

d = 46t

  • First, let's find "d" for 7 hours.

           d = 46(7)

           d = 322 miles                          (7, 322)

  • Next, let's find "d" for 12 hours.

            d = 46(12)

            d =   552 miles                      (12, 552)

  • Finally, let's find "d" for 18 hours.

            d = 46(18)

           d = 828 miles                          (18, 828)

Bananas are being sold for $0.59 a pound at Store A and $0.55 a pound at Store B. A customer wants to buy 10 pounds of bananas.
andre [41]

Answer:

The customer saves 5.9 - 5.5 = $0.5

when he shops at store B

Step-by-step explanation:

Stores A and B sells bananas at different prices per pound.

Bananas are being sold for $0.59 a pound at Store A and $0.55 a pound at Store B.

If a customer wants to buy 10 pounds of bananas from store A and store B,

The customer would spend 0.59 × 10 pounds of bananas = $5.9

buying from store A and

The customer would spend 0.55 × 10 pounds of bananas = $5.5

buying from store B.

The customer spends more for 10 pounds of bananas if he buys from shop A.

The customer saves 5.9 - 5.5 = $0.5

when he shops at store B

Which statement describes a process to solve sqrt b+20 - sqrt b=5?
babunello [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is:

√b+20 - √b = 5

The first step is we will add √b to both sides:

√b+20 -√b +√b = 5 +√b

√b+20 = 5+√b

Now take square at both sides:

(√b+20)^2 = (5+√b)^2

b+20 = 25+10√b+b

Now combine the like terms:

b+20-25-b=10√b

-5 = 10√b

Divide both the terms by 10

-5/10 = 10√b/10

-1/2=√b

Take square at both sides:

(-1/2)^2 = (√b)^2

1/4 = b

So in this type of question we add radical terms to both sides and square both sides twice....

Which of the following can you determine when you use deduction and start from a given set of rules and conditions?
andrew-mc [135]
Deduction is a term used as inference to a known and validated principle. This is when you analyze points through logic from a given set of rules and conditions. You relate how the situation may conform to the rules. Thus. there is no wrong deduction. If you analyze it to be true, then that must be definitely correct. Therefore, the answer is letter B. What must be true.

Sylvester and Lin go to the amusement park. Sylvester plays 5 rounds of mini golf and takes 4 turns in the batting cages for $60
leva [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

let's use g for golf and b for batting cages

So let's start with Sylvester

he plays 5 rounds of mini golf so 5g

and he takes 4 turns in the batting cages so 4b

and he pays 60 dollars for this

SO his equation is 5g+4b=60

Now onto Lin

3g for 3 rounds of golf

6b for 6 turns in the batting cages

He pays 45 dollars

SO his equation is 3g+6b=45

Both equations:

5g+4b=60

3g+6b=45

Now you need to cancel out one variable so you can multiply the first equation by 3 and the second one by -5

15g+12b=120

-15g-30b=-225

Now the g will cancel out when you add both equations

-18b=-105

b=105/18 which is about 5.83 dollars

Now plug in 105/18 into any of the original equations and solve for g
