A pyramid has a base 16 inches x 16 inches and a slant height of 10 inches.

a_sh-v [17]

Set up the equation
8^2+x^2=10^2
64+x^2=100
x^2=36
x=6
The altitude is 6. I put 8 in the equation because that is the distance from the center to the point of the pyramid.

If Logx (1 / 8) = - 3 / 2, then x is equal to

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Let's solve!

Step-by-step explanation:

$logx^{\frac{1}{8} } = -\frac{3}{2}$

$then$

$10^{-\frac{3}{2}} = x^{\frac{1}{8} }$

$(10^{-\frac{3}{2} })^{8} = (x^{\frac{1}{8} })^{8}$

$x = 10^{3*4} = 10^{-12}$

$x= 10^{-12}$

If the equation looks like this, then it has the solution

$x= 10^{-12}$

Another answer is

√x = 2 or x = 4

I hope this helps!
