SHORT ANSWER: What is the volume of the irregular shaped prism? Explain how you found its volume. Use ACE! (Answer, Computation, Explain)

Total volume = 355 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the irregular prism = volume of part A + volume of part B

Volume of part A which is also a rectangular prism = Length × width × height

= (11 - 5) × 5 × 6

= 6 × 5 × 6

= 180 cm³

Volume of rectangular prism B = 5 × 5 × (6 + 5)

                                                   = 5 × 5 × 11

                                                   = 275 cm³

Total volume = 180 + 175

                      = 355 cm³

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
