I assume the volume of the larger pyramid is 108 ft^3, not 108 ft^2.

The scale factor of edges of two solids is x.
The scale factor of their areas is x^2.
The scale factor of their volumes is x^3

The areas have a scale factor of 18/8 = 2.25

The length have a scale factor of sqrt(2.25) = 1.5

The volumes have a scale factor of 3.375

108/3.375 = 32

Answer: 32 ft^3

Use the scale of 1cm=45 km
alex41 [277]

Answer:

d = 7.4 cm is the distance between the two cities on the map.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d = the distance measured on the map in centimeters (cm) between any two locations and let D be the actual distance in kilometers (km) between these same two locations.

Since the scale on the map is 1 cm = 45 km, then the ratio of the distance on the map to the actual distance is equal to 1cm/45 km; therefore the quotient of any measured distance d on the map divided by the corresponding much longer actual distance D would have to maintain (equal) this same ratio; In other words, we can set up the following proportion to solve for d given the actual distance D = 333 km as follows:

1 cm/45 km = d/D

Substituting, we get:

1 cm/45 km = d/333 km

d/333 km = 1 cm/45 km

(d/333 km)(333 km) = (1 cm/45 km)(333 km)

d = (333 km/45 km)(1 cm)

d = 7.4 cm is the distance between the two cities on the map.

Check:

1 cm/45 cm = d/333 km

1 cm/45 cm = 7.4 cm/333 km

1 cm/45 cm = 1 cm/45 km (Therefore, the distance ratio of the map has been maintained

Hey can you please help! posted picture of question
frosja888 [35]
The solution of the system can be x - 3y = 4 only if both the equations can be simplified to x - 3y = 4.

This will mean that both the equations will result in the same line which is x - 3y = 4 and thus have infinitely many solutions.

Second equation is:

Qx - 6y = 8 
Taking 2 common we get:

(Q/2)x - 3y = 4

Comparing this equation to x- 3y = 4, we can say that 

Q/2 = 1
So,
Q = 2

Therefore, the second equation will be:

2x - 6y = 8
