Acandy bar box is in the shape of a triangular prism. the volume of the box is 2,400 cubic centimeters. 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)

Volume = 2,400cm^3

Volume = 1/2 (16)(h)(20)

2,400cm^3/160 = 160(h)/160

ANSWER to Part A: 15cm^3 = height of the box

Surface Area = 1/2 (15x16)(2) + 20(17)(2) + 16(20)

Surface Area = 240 + 680 + 320

Surface Area = 1,240

ANSWER to Part B: You will need approximately 1,240cm of cardboard

a is the right answer

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
