A pyramid has a rectangular base of length (3x + 1)cm and width xcm.
sergey [27]

Answer:

The dimension of the base of the Rectangle Pyramid is Length = 10 and Width = 8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rectangle Pyramid

Base Length = 3x + 1

Base Width = x

Height = 12

Volume = 96

Required

Dimension of the base of the pyramid

Given that the volume of the pyramid is ⅓ of the base area * the height.

This is represented mathematical as

Volume = ⅓ * base area * height.

Where

Base area = width * length

Base area = (3x + 1) * x

Base area = 3x² + x.

So,

Volume becomes

Volume = ⅓ * (3x² + x) * 12.

Volume = (3x² + x) * 4

Substitute 96 for volume

96 = (3x² + x) * 4

Divide both sides by 4

96/4 = (3x² + x) * 4/4

24 = 3x² + x

Subtract 24 fr both sides

24 - 24 = 3x² + x - 24

0 = 3x² + x - 24

3x² + x - 24 = 0

Expand

3x² + 9x - 8x - 24 = 0

Factorize

3x(x + 3) - 8(x + 3) = 0

(3x - 8)(x + 3) = 0

3x - 8 = 0 or x + 3 = 0

3x = 8 or x = -3

x = 8/3 or x = -3

Recall that

Length = 3x + 1

Width = x

For any of the above expression, x can't be less than 0; so, x = -3 can't be considered.

Substitute x = 8/3

Length = 3x + 1

Length = 3(8/3) + 1

Length = 8 + 1

Length = 9

Width = x

Width = 8/3

Hence, the dimension of the base of the Rectangle Pyramid is Length = 10 and Width = 8/3

How many tenths are in 3ones
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Each one has 10 tenths, so 3 ones have 30 tenths.

You can do this by dividing 3 by 1/10.

3/(1/10) = 3/1 * 10/1 = 30/1 = 30

What is the volume of a small cone if:
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Volume of smaller cone =301.44

Step-by-step explanation:

First let angle of cone be\alpha.

then sin(\alpha ) = 3/5       (For bigger triangle)

Same cone angle is for smaller one because they are similar.

cos(\alpha ) = 4/5

Now for smaller cone radius be R

3/5 =R/Slant height

Slant height =5/3R

Lateral surface area =\frac{1}{2}R^{2}\beta  [R = slant height]  

Given lateral surface area =60\pi =\frac{1}{2}(\frac{5R}{3} )^{2} \beta   ...................................1

2\pi R=\frac{5R}{3}\beta        ................................................2

\beta=\frac{6\pi }{5}

Put angle beta in equation 1 and find the value of R

R =6 cm

Height =\frac{4R}{3}

Thus volume =\frac{1}{3}\pi6^{2}*8

                     =301.44
