From the information given about the square pyramid, the maximum base length of the building is 67.42 cm.

<h3>How do you determine the maximum side length?</h3>

We are given the following  details  are:

Base = b

Slant height (l) = 5b

The lateral surface area is calculated using:

L = 2bl

So, we have:

L = 2 * b * 5b

Evaluate the product

L = 10b²

The total surface area is calculated using:

T = L + b²

So, we have:

T = 10b² + b²

Evaluate the sum

T = 11b²

Recall that the maximum surface area is 50,000 square feet

So, we have:

11b² = 50000

Divide both sides by 11

b² = 50000/11

Taking the square root of both sides, we have

b = 67.42

Hence, the maximum base length of the building is 67.42 cm

For the given function, x can have what value?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

x cannot be -4,-3, or 13

x can be anything else

Step-by-step explanation:

There are infinitely many values x can take where the relation above will be a function.

For it to be a function, you just need to make sure each x is only assigned one y value.

So x couldn't be -4 because it would by assigned to y=2 and y=0.

x couldn't be -3 because it would be assigned to y=1 and y=0.

x couldn't be 13 because it would be assigned to y=5 and y=0.

So as long as x is not chosen to be -4,-3, or 13 your relation here is a function.

Hope this helps! Because when you would fill in the variables 0=0 which which make the expression too that they’d equal the same.

A function has y-intercept of -2 and a slope of -1. which equation below describes the function?
ozzi
The correct equation should look something like this:
y= -1x - 2

Consider the equation for a line:
y = mx + b,
Where ‘m’ is the slope
Where ‘b’ is the y-intercept.

From there you can plug in your known values for ‘m’ and ‘b’, and get the equation above. If you are still not convinced, I suggest you graph the function and observe its slope and y-intercept.

Hope this helps!
