Question

Linda is filling the mold above with water and freezing it for an ice project. If a = 10 cm and b = 9 cm, what will be the volume of the frozen figure?

A.
1,045 cm3
B.
1,450 cm3
C.
1,000 cm3
D.
1,900 cm3

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

volume = length x width x height

For the top half i use the formula for the area of a triangle (area = base x height ÷ 2), which results in 45. times it 10 and you have 450³ which is the volume of the top part.

For the bottom half it is just 10 x 10 x 10 = 1000³

450³+1000³=1450³
