Answer: The scale factor is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the pyramids are similar. The volume of one of these pyramids is 13,824 cubic feet and the volume of the other one is 216 cubic feet. Then:
By Similar solids theorem, if two similar solids have a scale factor of 
, then corresponding volumes have a ratio of 
Then:
Knowing this, we can find the scale factor. This is:
![\frac{13,824}{216}=\frac{a^3}{b^3}\\\\\frac{13,824}{216}=(\frac{a}{b})^3\\\\\frac{a}{b}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{13,824}{216}}\\\\scale\ factor=\frac{a}{b}=4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Ba%5E3%7D%7Bb%5E3%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%3D%28%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%29%5E3%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cscale%5C%20factor%3D%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%3D4)
It is most likely 14 units so it would be A. I think.
Look at the axis graph. If both of the coordinates are negative, it would be in quadrant lll. If you go over to the x-axis, you would be in quadrant lV, or 4.
(-2,-3) -> (2,-3)
You change the x-factor's sign.
I hope this helps!
