Two right prism containers each hold 75 gallons of water. The height of the first container is 20 inches. The of the second container is 30 inches. If the area of the base in the first container is 6 ft?, find the area of the
base in the second container. Explain your reasoning.

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b

1

x = 1

step-by-step explanation:

0 ÷ x = 0

0 ÷ 1 = 0
