A prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base. What shape is formed?

1 answer:

8 0

The shape formed, when a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base, will be congruent to its base. Hence, it will also be heart-shaped.

A prism is a polyhedron made up of n parallelogram faces that connect the n-sided polygon base, the second base, which is a translated duplicate of the first base, and the n faces. The bases are translated into all cross-sections that are parallel to them.

In the question, we are informed that a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base.

We are asked what shape is formed.

From the above discussion, we know that the bases are translated into all cross-sections that are parallel to them, that is, all cross-sections parallel to the base, will be congruent to the base.

Thus, the shape formed, when a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base, will be congruent to its base. Hence, it will also be heart-shaped.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

$491.25 and 0.15xx + 300

Step-by-step explanation:

15%=0.15

$1275×0.15=$191.25 in sales

$191.25+$300=$491.25

He would make $491.25 a week in which he made 1275 in sales.

0.15xx + 300 = total earnings

He would make 0.15xx + 300 if he made xx dollars in sales

Please help me solve

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So for this we have to find the percentage by using 'percentage of error'

If at first it was 15 then it went up to 19 we have to subtract 15 - 19= -4

Ignore the negative. Now divide= 4/19= 0.21

The size went up by 21%

Three people split an amount of money. 1 268 dollars and 1 gets 200 dollars. The third gets 40 percent. What is the amount?

Maksim231197 [3]

The total amount is $ 780

Solution:

Let the total amount be "x"

Given that,

First person gets $ 268

Second person gets $ 200

Third person gets 40 %

This means, third person gets 40 % of total amount

Third person = 40 % of x

$Third\ person = 40 \% \times x\\\\Third\ person = \frac{40}{100} \times x\\\\Third\ person = 0.4x$

We know that, total amount is equal to sum of amount got by all three persons

Total amount = first person + second person + third perosn

$x = 268 + 200+ 0.4x\\\\x - 0.4x = 268 + 200\\\\0.6x = 468\\\\x = \frac{468}{0.6}\\\\x = 780$

Thus the total amount is $ 780
