A candy bar box is in the shape of a triangular prism. The volume of the box is 3,240 cubic centimeters. A triangular prism is shown with base of triangle labeled 24 cm, sides of the triangle labeled 15 cm, and length of the box equal to 30 cm. Part A: What is the height of the base? Show your work. (5 points) Part B: What is the approximate amount of cardboard used to make the candy box? Explain how you got your answer. (5 points)

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is

cross multiplying, we get :

⇒ (3) × (5) = (9) × (x)

⇒ 15 = 9x

if you get paid hourly because if you get a salary you could work all week and only get paid a certain amount no matter how much you work but if you get paid hourly then you get paid for every minute you worked.
