Answer:

A = x⁵ + 13x³ - 9x² + 40x - 72

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle is length X width, or A = lw.

Substitute the equations for the sides into the formula:

A = lw

A = (x² + 8)(x³ + 5x - 9) <= use the distributive property

A = x⁵ + 5x³ -9x² + 8x³ + 40x - 72 <= collect like terms

A = x⁵ + 13x³ - 9x² + 40x - 72

The oblique pyramid has a square base. What is the volume of the pyramid? 2.5 cm3 5 cm3 6 cm3 7.5 cm3

Take a look at the attachment below. It fills in for the attachment that wasn't provided in the question -

An oblique pyramid is one that has a top not aligned with the base. Due to this, the height of the pyramid connects with two vertices at its ends to form a right angle present outside the pyramid, knowing that it is always perpendicular to the base. There is no difference between the calculations of the volume of an oblique pyramid and a pyramid however -

$\\Base Area = 2 cm * 2 cm = 4 cm^2,\\Volume ( Pyramid ) = 1 / 3 * ( Base Area ) * ( Height ),\\Volume = 1 / 3 * ( 4 ) * ( 3.75 ),\\-------------------------\\Volume = 5 cm^3$
