The ratio of the combined volume of these pyramids to the volume of the prism as a fraction is equal to 1/3.

<h3>How to calculate the volume of a pyramid?</h3>

Mathematically, the volume of a pyramid can be calculated by using this formula:

Volume = 1/3 × b × h

<u>Where:</u>

h is the height.

b is the base area.

Since both pyramids have the same base area as the prism, their combined volume is given by:

Combined volume = (1/3 × b × h) + (1/3 × b × h)

Combined volume = 2/3 × b × h

Also, the volume of this prism = 1/2 × b × h

Thus, the ratio is given by:

Ratio = (2/3 × b × h)/(1/2 × b × h)

Ratio = 2/3 × 1/2

Ratio = 1/3.

Answer:

g=3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(g)=g²+3g

Personally, I would do a guess and check to figure this out.

Let's try a number like 3. Insert it -

f(3)=3²+3(3) =9+9=18

Therefore, the answer is 3.

Use the intercepts of the following quadratic curve to find its graph.y = -1/2x^2 -3/2x+2

Solnce55 [7]

The correct graph is fourth option

Explanation: $\begin{gathered} \text{The quadratic function:} \\ \text{y = }\frac{-1}{2}x^2\text{ - }\frac{3}{2}x\text{ + 2} \end{gathered}$

Using the intercepts: we have x-intercept and y-intercept

To get x intercept, we will equate the function to zero. That is y = 0

$\begin{gathered} 0\text{ = }\frac{-1}{2}x^2\text{ - }\frac{3}{2}x\text{ + 2} \\ mu\text{ltiply through by 2:} \\ 0=-x^2\text{ - 3x + 4} \\ x^2\text{ + 3x - 4 = 0} \\ x^2\text{ - x + 4x - 4 = 0} \\ x(x\text{- 1) +4(x - 1) = 0} \\ (x\text{ + 4)(x - 1) = 0} \\ x+4\text{ = 0 or x - 1 = 0} \\ x\text{ = -4 or x = 1} \end{gathered}$

x intercepts are x = -4 and x = 1

This means the line will cross the x axis at two points: x = -4 and x = 1

To get y-intercept, we will equate x to zero:

$\begin{gathered} \text{y = }\frac{-1}{2}(0)^2\text{ - }\frac{3}{2}(0)\text{ + 2} \\ y\text{ = 0 - 0 + 2} \\ y\text{ = 2} \end{gathered}$

y-intercept = 2

This means the line will cross the y axis at y = 2

The correct graph is fourth option

3/4 has how many 1/8 in it?

Ivenika [448]

Since we know that 2/8 equals 1/4, we can simply use that unit rate to calculate that 6/8 = 3/4.
