The question is, "Find the volume of the bodies given in the figures below, which have a hole along their entire length." How do I measure it the volume in this case? As you can see, height is 9cm, length is 12, and width is 18 .

1782 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you measure the volume of the cuboid as a whole which is length x breadth x height, 9 x 12 x 18 = 1944 cm³. Then measure the volume occupied by the space, 3 x 3 x 18 since the hole runs along the entire length = 162 cm³.

Then you subtract the volume occupied by the hole from the volume of the cuboid in total, 1944 - 162 = 1782 cm³

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
