Explain how you found the volume of the rectangular prism with a hole through it. Explain how you found the volume of the rectangular prism with a hole through it.

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow that the volume of a prism the product of the base and the height

We have a hole inside it so we must khow what is the geometrical form of this whole to calculate its volum then substract from the total volume

let soccer = x and golf = y

part a

1st equation: x + y = 125

2nd equation: x = y +45

part b

replace x in the 1st equation with the 2nd one:

y + 45 + y = 125

simplify:

2y + 45 = 125

subtract 45 from each side:

2y = 80

divide both sides by 2:

y = 80/2

y = 40

she plays golf for 40 minutes.

part c

no because she plays soccer for 45 minutes longer than golf 40 +45 =   85 minutes, not 80 minutes.
