Portia has purchased a new aquarium for her fish. It is in the shape of a hexagonal prism. 3a) How much water can Portia’s new aquarium hold? * 1 point a) 166.28 cubic inches b) 790.28 cubic inches c) 956.56 cubic inches d) 3120 cubic inches e) 6240 cubic inches

D. 3120

Step-by-step explanation:

How many sides does a hexagon have? Six. Let's begin our equation with 6. The area of a triangle formula would be: 1/2 bh. And a hexagon is just six triangles put together. Now our equation is: 6 (1/2 bh) What's bh then? B (base)= 8in. The base is usually always at the bottom. Now we take 10 and add it into the equation. Next we would multiply this by 13. Our equation is now: 6(1/2*8*10)*13. What do you get then? 3120.

For Part B:  Portia's new fish require complete darkness for 12 hours a day. Rather than buying a blackout curtain for her room, she decides to make an aquarium cover out of a tropical print, with a blackout liner. How much tropical print fabric will she need to purchase in order to cover the top and sides of the aquarium?

Now, we're dealing with surface area. What is surface area, anyway? Surface area is the sum of all faces. There are 2 hexagonal faces and 6 sides.

What is 6*1/2 *8? 24! Now what's 10*24? That's right, 240!

8*13=104

6(104)=624

624+240=864

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
