8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

100% = $8.00

1% = 100%/100 = 8/100 = $0.08

the price went up by $8.48 - $8.00 = $0.48.

how many % is this ?

as many % as 1% fits into this difference :

0.48 / 0.08 = 6%

the price increase was 6%.

What is the volume of this square pyramid?

tatuchka [14]

Answer: 1296 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the volume of a square pyramid is,

$V = \frac{a^2h}{3}$

Where a = side of the square base,

h = height of the pyramid,

By the given diagram,

a = 18 cm,

h = 12 cm,

Hence, the volume of the given pyramid,

$V = \frac{18^2\times 12}{3}$

$= \frac{324\times 12}{3}$

$=\frac{3888}{3}$

$=1296$ cube cm.

⇒ First option is correct.
