Question

Supposed eat tube in the right rectangular prism is 1/2 in unit cube

Answer 1

Given that each cube is ½ unit.

a) The dimension of the prism is:

For the dimensions of a prism, we have:

Length; width; height

`\text{length = 5}\ast(1)/(2)=\text{ }(5)/(2)\text{ units}`
`\text{Width = 4 }\ast\text{ }(1)/(2)=\text{ }(4)/(2)=\text{ 2 units}`
`\text{Height = 3 }\ast\text{ }(1)/(2)=(3)/(2)\text{ units}`

b) To find the volume of the prism, use the formula below:

`\text{Volume = length }\ast\text{ width }\ast\text{ height}`

Thus, we have:

`\text{Volume = }(5)/(2)\ast(2)/(1)\ast(3)/(2)=(30)/(4)=(15)/(2)\text{ units cube}`

ANSWER:

`\begin{gathered} a)\text{ length = }(5)/(2)\text{ units} \\ \text{ width = 2 units} \\ \text{ height = }(3)/(2)units \end{gathered}`
`b)\text{ Volume = }(15)/(2)\text{ units cube}`
