A rectangular prism has a base that is congruent to the base of a rectangular
pyramid. The heights, h, of the two figures
are also congruent. If the volume of the
pyramid is 100 inches, which expression can
be used to find the volume of the prism?

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
