Hi Welcome to OPenstudy @lovesvd10 ! :)

can you post a specific question so that we can help you with that?

Answer 2

A candy bar box is in the shape of a triangular prism. The volume of the box is 1,200 cubic centimeters.

A triangular prism is shown with base of triangle labeled 10 cm, sides of the triangles labeled 13 cm, and length of the box equal to 20 cm.

Part A: What is the height of the box? Show your work. (5 points)

Part B: What is the approximate amount of cardboard used to make the sides of the candy box? Explain how you got your answer. (5 points)

Answer 3

okay, so first, do you know what's the formula for the volume of a triangular prism?

Answer 4

and can you also attach the diagram?

Answer 5

Alright, so the formula for the volume of triangular prism is: \(\sf \Large Volume= \frac{Base \times Height \times Length}{2}\)

what we know from the question:
Volume= 1,200 cubic centimeters
Base= 10 cm
Length = 20 cm

and we are looking for the height.

To solve for the height let's rearrange the formula in terms of H.
so it will be like this:


now plug in your given values and tell me what you get (:
