A pyramid has a square base with sides of length s. The height of the pyramid is equal to 1/2 of the length of a side on the base. Which formula
represents the volume of the pyramid?
A. V = 1/12 s ^3
B. V=1/6 s ^3
C. V=1/3s ^3
D. V=3s³
E. V=6s³

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

V = (s^3)/6  (Answer B )

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length of a side of the base is s, then the height of the pyramid is half that, or s/2.

The volume of a pyramid with a square base and base side length S and height H is V = (1/3)(S^2)(H).

In this case, the formula is V = (1/3)(s^2)(s/2), or V = (s^3)/6  (Answer B)

Step-by-step explanation:

just took it

The height of the cone to the nearest centimetre is 10 centimetres. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

Given that, the surface area of a cone is 250 square centimetres. The height of the cone is double the length of its radius.

We need to find what is the height of the cone to the nearest centimetre.

What is the surface area of a cone?

The area occupied by the surface/boundary of a cone is known as the surface area of a cone. It is always measured in square units. Stacking many triangles and rotating them around an axis gives the shape of a cone. As it has a flat base, thus it has a total surface area as well as a curved surface area.

If the radius of the base of the cone is "r" and the slant height of the cone is "l", the surface area of a cone is given as total surface area, T = πr(r + l) square units

Now, let the radius of a cone be x.

Then the height of the cone is 2x.

Slant height=√x²+4x²

=√5x

So, the surface area of cone=πx(x+2.24x)

⇒250=3.14 × 3.24x²

⇒x²=24.57

⇒x=4.95≈5 centimetre

So, height=2x=10 centimetre

The height of the cone to the nearest centimetre is 10 centimetres. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

The gradient of the line is 2
The length of the line is √2645
Work out the coordinates of P.​

Answer: (23, 46)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is y = 2x, and we can thus represent point P as (x, 2x)

Substituting into the distance formula,

[tex]\sqrt{2645}=\sqrt{(x)^{2}+(2x)^{2}}\\\\2645=x^2 + (2x)^2\\\\2645=x^2 + 4x^2\\\\2645=5x^2\\\\529=x^2\\\\x=23[/tex]

The product of the length of 2 unequal poles before cutting 2 cm from each was 285 cm. Their present sum after cutting 2cm from each is 30cm. What is the length of the shorter pole? The product of the length of 2 unequal poles before cutting 2 cm from each was 285 cm . Their present sum after cutting 2cm from each is 30cm . What is the length of the shorter pole ?​

Answers

Answer:

15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the shorter pole can be found by forming and subsequently solving 2 equations.

Start by defining the variables that are going to be used in the working.

Let the original length of the shorter pole be a cm and that of the longer pole be b cm.

'Product' refers to the multiplication operation.

ab= 285 -----(1)

On the other hand, 'sum' refers to the addition operation.

Length of shorter pole after cutting= a -2

Length of longer pole after cutting= b -2

(a -2) +(b-2)= 30

a +b -4= 30

Adding 4 to both sides:

a +b= 30 +4

a +b= 34 -----(2)

From (2):

a= 34 -b -----(3)

Let's solve by substitution:

Substitute (3) into (1):

b(34 -b)= 285

Expand:

34b -b²= 285

b² -34b +285= 0

Factorise:

(b -15)(b -19)= 0

b -15= 0       or       b -19= 0

b= 15            or             b= 19

Substitute into (1):

a(15)= 285       or       a(19)= 285

a= 285 ÷15      or             a= 285 ÷19

a= 19                or             a= 15

Since a <b, a= 15 and b= 19.

Thus, the length of the shorter pole is 15 cm.

Answers

Answer:

x = 5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Square both sides
x - 5 = (x - 5)(x - 5)
2. Simplify the right side
x - 5 = x^2 - 10x + 25
3. Add 5 to both sides
x = x^2 - 10x + 30
4. Subtract x from both sides
0 = x^2 - 11x + 30
5. Factor
0 = (x-5)(x-6)
x = 5,6

Answer:

x = 5 , x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sqrt{x-5}[/tex] = x - 5 ( square both sides )

x - 5 = (x - 5)² ← expand using FOIL

x - 5 = x² - 10x + 25 ← subtract x - 5 from both sides

0 = x² - 11x + 30 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 5)(x - 6) ← in factored form

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

As a check

substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then these values are the solutions.

x = 5

left side = [tex]\sqrt{5-5}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{0}[/tex] = 0

right side = 5 - 5 = 0

then x = 5 is a solution

----------------------------------

x = 6

left side = [tex]\sqrt{6-5}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{1}[/tex] = 1

right side = 6 - 5 = 1

then x = 6 is a solution

The number of cars at a car dealership is reduced by 10% in the first sales quarter of the year. If the number of cars decreased an additional 20% over the second sales quarter of the year, then by what percent did the number of cars decrease over the two sales quarters? A) 25% B) 28% C) 30% D) 45% ​

Answers

Answer:

B) 28%

=================

Let the initial price be x.

After the first sales quarter the price is reduced by 10% and became:

x - 10% = x - 0.1x = 0.9x

After the second sales quarter the price is reduced by 20% and became:

0.9x - 20% = 0.9x - 0.2*0.9x = 0.9x - 0.18x = 0.72x

The decrease over the two quarters is:

x - 0.72x = 0.28x

This is equivalent of 28%, hence the correct answer choice is B.

4 Pencils and 2 rulers cost $8. 2 pencils and 4 rulers cost $10. Find the cost of 3 rulers and 3 pencils

Answers

Answer:

$9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the price of pencils is x, and the price of rulers is y.

4x+2y=8.....(i)

2x+4y=10......(ii)

From eq(i),

2(2x+y)=8

2x+y=4

y=4-2x eq(iii)  .....put in eq(ii)

2x+4(4-2x)=10

2x+16-8x=10

-6x=10-16

x=-6/-6

x=1 put in eq (iii)

y=4-2(1)

y=2

Now, the price of 3 rulers and 3 pencils = 3x+3y=3(1)+3(2)

=9

Please give me brainlist.

We can convert the statements into quadratic equations, which is not a big thing. In simple words, the equation which includes 2 unknowns. We can sustitute with x & y for the simplicity.

Let assume the price of pencil is x and the price of rulers is y. While doing the operations we can remove the units which is $ (for price).


So now we can rewrite the first statement as 4x + 2y = 8.
As everything is dividant of 2, I'm simplifying the eqution by dividing everything by 2.

So, 2x + y = 4 ----(1)

Similarly the second statement is, 2x+4y = 10.

So, 2x + 4y = 10 ----(2).

To solve this we need to make any of the variable (either x or y) zero. We can do that in multiple ways, Here I am trying to make the x =0 by substrating equation 1 from equation 2.

2x + 4y = 10 -
2x + y = 4
___________

-0 + 3y = 6

3y = 6

So y= 6/3=2

Now we have the value of y, to find x apply it in any eqution that has x

I'm applying it in eqution 2

2x + 2 = 4
2x = 2
x=1

Now we want to value the cost of 3 rulers and 3 pencils

3x + 3y = 3(1) + 3(2) = 3 + 6 = 9
