Question

The rectangular prism shown has a height of , a length of , and a width of .


Part A: Suppose you have cubes that are on each side. How many of these cubes would it take to fill a cube that is 1 inch high, 1 inch long, and 1 inch wide?
Part B: Use your answer to Part A to find the volume of one of the cubes.
Part C: How many cubes would it take to fill the prism shown?
Part D: Use your answers to Parts B and C to find the volume of the prism.
Part E: Multiply the height, length, and width of the prism. Compare this product to your answer to Part D.

Answer 1

height of 2 1/2 inches, a length 1 1/2 inches and a width of 1/2 inch

Answer 2

V of rectangular prism is l*w*h

and since your cubes are just 1 inch^3 your answer for a will just be V

Answer 3

For B a small cube would just be 1 inch cuped

Answer 4

IC TY:)

Answer 5

I have another, these are just confusing to me

Answer 6

You need to provide more pictures and graphs. I am just assuming based on what you typed

Answer 7

ok

Answer 8

Mya has a raised garden bed in the shape of a rectangular prism. The bed is 8 feet long, 3 2/3 feet wide, and 2 feet high.

Part A: Belinda wants to make a raised garden bed that covers the same area as Mya’s, but the space she has is only 3 feet wide. How long should her garden bed be?
Part B: Find the volume of Mya’s gardening bed. Suppose Belinda’s garden bed is the same height as Mya’s. Will Belinda’s bed have the same volume? Explain.
Part C: A small bag of soil contains 2 cubic feet. How many bags of soil should Mya buy if she wants to fill her garden bed completely? Show your work.
Part D: Belinda already has 22 bags of soil. Use your answer to Part C to find the depth to which she can fill her garden bed.

Answer 9

well mya's is 8*(3+2/3)=A

since belinda wants same area but is limited to 3 feet wide then

X*(3)=8*(3+2/3)

that is part A

Answer 10

solve for x

Answer 11

For part B the volume is just l*w*h

another way to express volume is area * h

since both bel and myas gardens are same area and same height then they should have same volume.

Answer 12

Thank you so much!

Answer 13

For C

just divide what you got in Part b by 2

garden volume/ 2 which is the soils volume

Answer 14

for part D

22 bags of soil * 2 is the volume of the soil

so you have a total volume of 44

so 44= w*l*h

44= 8*(3+2/3) * h

solve for h

Answer 15

i got 29.28 for bel, is that right

Answer 16

28.28 as volume?

Answer 17

area

Answer 18

they should both have same area

Answer 19

I guess I'm having trouble with the length

Answer 20

29.33333334 is area

Answer 21

so 29.33333334=x*3 just divide by 3 and you get length

9.777777780

Answer 22

I was way off, oh i get it now

Answer 23

:)

Answer 24

i have 42.66 for v

Answer 25

no :(

58.66666667
8*(3+2/3)*2.

Answer 26

I'm glad you're on tonight:)

Answer 27

remember that V=l*w*h

and you can multiply in any order you want.
in othher words whl, hlw, whl...
that helps a lot
