Answer:

V=[tex]27 cm^{3} \\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Area -of-triangle=\frac{1}{2} \times base\times height=0.5\times1.5\times 3=2.25cm^{2} \\Vol=Area\times height= 2.25\times 12=27 cm^{3} \\[/tex]

Answer:

Part A: 108

Part B: 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation: The formula for volume of a prism is V=Bh. (B is base area and H is height). The information doesn't provide base area so you need to find base area. The formula for base area is 1/2 x base side x height, so 1/2 x 1.5 x 12 = 9. (This is the formula for triangular prism.)  Now do the volume formula; 9 x 12 = 108. Now for part B: Divide the volume by the base area. 108 / 4 1/2 = 24. So the answer for A is 108 and for B it's 24. Check your answer: 4 1/2 x 24 = 108.

Sorry if it's wrong. Have a good day!
