Question

I have a hard time finding the x help

Answer 1

The formula for the volume of this shape is: length * width * height/2

Knowing this, we can set up this equation:


`576= (8*8*x)/(2)`

Now, we can solve for x. I will start by multiplying the 8s and then divide both sides by two.


`1152=64x`

Next, we divide both sides by 64 to find x.


`x = 18`

So, x is equal to 18 cm.

Answer 2

The volume of a triangular prism is V = 1/2lwh. So, in order to find x, plug in the values you know and solve:

`576 = (1)/(2)*8*8*x`

`1152 = 64x`

`x = 18`
