The equation of the line is y=2x+1.

We must must transform the standard form equation 3x+6y=5 into a slope-intercept form equation (y=mx+b) to find its slope.

3x+6y=5 (Subtract 3x on both sides.)

6y=−3x+5 (Divide both sides by 6.)

y=− 3/6x+ 5/6

​y=− 1/2x+ 5/6

​The slope of our first line is equal to − 1/2.Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, so if the slope of one is x, the slope of the other is − 1/x

​The negative reciprocal of − 1/2 is equal to 2, therefore 2 is the slope of our line.

Since the equation of line passing through the point (1,3), therefore substitute the given point in the equation y=2x+b:

3=(2×1)+b

3=2+b

b=3−2=1

Substitute this value for b in the equation y=2x+b:

y=2x+1

Hence, the equation of the line is y=2x+1.

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of pyramid be h

v =  \frac{1}{3} lwh

v= 224

w= 8

l= 12

224=1/3(12)(8)(h)

224=32h

h=224/32

h=7
