Answer:

128

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as a proportion with miles on the top and km on the bottom:

$\frac{mi}{km}:\frac{5}{8}$

If we want to know how many km are in 80 miles, we put the variable with the km stuff on the bottom and 80 on top and cross multiply to solve for the variable:

$\frac{mi}{km}:\frac{5}{8}=\frac{80}{x}$ so

5x = 640 and

x = 128

That means that 80 miles is equivalent to 128 km

Your paycheck each week is $500.00. If you want to save $2000 in one year, how much should you set aside from each paycheck?

Mnenie [13.5K]

There are 52 weeks in a year. In order to figure out how much you have to save each week to save a total of $2000, you have to divide $2000 by 52.

2000÷52= 38.462

So to save $2000 you would have to set aside about $38.50 each week.

PLEASE HELP! What is the volume of the pyramid shown below?

mezya [45]

The formula for the volume of a pyramid is,

V=1/3Bh

Since the base of the pyramid is a square, the base area is 11^2

which equals 121 sq. units

So, substitute 121

for B

and 6 for h, in the formula.

V=1/3(121)(6) = 242 cu. units

Or alternatively 1/3(11^2)(6) = 242 cu. units
