Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

B, F

Explanation:

The volume is the product of the dimensions:

V = LWH

V = (b^2)(3c^2)(2c^1) = (3·2)(b^2)(c^(2+1))

V = 6b^2·c^3 . . . . . matches B

__

For b=3 and c=2, the volume is ...

V = 6(3^2)(2^3) = 6(9)(8)

V = 432 . . . . cubic inches . . . . matches F
