Slicing Solids
Problem 1
A cube is cut into two pieces by a single slice that passes through points \(A\), \(B\), and \(C\). What shape is the cross section?
![A cube is indicated. Point A is located on the back, top right vertex, Point B is located on the front, top left vertex, and Point C is located on the front, bottom left vertex](https://cms-im.s3.amazonaws.com/7a3HJuWgnzTbhQHwgUATtXdK?response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%3D%227-7.6.C.PP.Image.02.png%22%3B%20filename%2A%3DUTF-8%27%277-7.6.C.PP.Image.02.png&response-content-type=image%2Fpng&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAXQCCIHWF3XOEFOW4%2F20240630%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20240630T172109Z&X-Amz-Expires=604800&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=5c98f86616fb92f45cb3b946c5d46f17011b6d46630aec037c696fd32d5d7638)

(From Unit 7, Lesson 2.)Problem 5
Two months ago, the price, in dollars, of a cell phone was \(c\).
- Last month, the price of the phone increased by 10%. Write an expression for the price of the phone last month.
- This month, the price of the phone decreased by 10%. Write an expression for the price of the phone this month.
- Is the price of the phone this month the same as it was two months ago? Explain your reasoning.
