Answer:

If this is for the k12 test then it is 2y.

I just took the test.



Answer:

4y^14

Step-by-step explanation:

you would look at the equation, and because it seems to be a division problem inside the (   ) then you would find the difference of the exponents.  and divide the numbers in front of y. So, it would go from (16y^5/ 4y^3)^12, to (4y^2)^12.  Then, you would add the exponents because it is multiplication.  So you would get 4y^14.

What is the volume of the shape

Answers

the answer to this question would be D or 1512.
to solve this question, you find the volume of each prism. 
to find volume, you do length times width times height.
the top prism would be 15 times 12 times 6 which would be 1080
the bottom prism would be 6 times 12 times 6 which would be 432.
you add the volumes of the two prism or 1080+432= 1512.

hope this helps! :)
