The height of a pyramid is doubled, but its length and width are cut in half. What is true about the volume of the new pyramid?

Mathematics

Aleksandr [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The new pyramid has a volume that is half the volume of the original pyramid.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is given by the following equation:

V = \frac{h*l*w}{3}

In which h is the height, l is the length and w is the width.

Modified volume:

height doubled, length and width cut in half. So

h = 2h, l = 0.5l, w = 0.5w

V_{M} = \frac{2h*0.5l*0.5l}{3} = \frac{0.5*h*l*w}{3} = 0.5\frac{h*l*w}{3} = 0.5V[/tex]

That is

The new pyramid has a volume that is half the volume of the original pyramid.

the radius of one circular field is 5m and that of other is 3m.find the radius of circular field whose area is the difference of
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

4m

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Recall the formula for area of a circle for each calculation
  2. Calculate the area of the large field (r = 5m)
  3. Calculate the area of the small field (r = 3m)
  4. Find the difference in area
  5. Find the radius of the "difference" field using difference in area

The formula for area of a circle is A = πr².

"A" means area.

π is pi. <em>I will use the π button</em>, but some teachers ask to use 3.14.

"r" means radius.

Area of large field:

Substitute "r" for 5m in the formula.

A = πr²

A = π(5m)²

A = π25m²

A = 78.5398163397 m²

Area of small field:

Substitute "r" for 3m in the formula.

A = πr²

A = π(3m)²

A = π9m²

A = 28.2743338823  m²

Difference in areas:

Subtract the area of small field from the area of large field.

(78.5398163397 m²) - (28.2743338823  m²)

= 50.2654825 m²

Radius of "difference" field:

Since we are looking for radius, not area, rearrange the formula to isolate "r".

A = πr²

\frac{A}{\pi } = \frac{\pi r^{2}}{\pi}     Divide both sides by π

\frac{A}{\pi } = r²                π cancels out on the right side

\frac{A}{\pi } = √r²             Square root both sides

\sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi }} = r        ² and √ cancel out, leaving "r" isolated

r = \sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi }}       Variable on the left for standard formatting

Substitute "A" for the difference in area

r = \sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi }}

r = \sqrt{\frac{50.2654825m^{2}}{\pi }}     Divide by pi first

r = \sqrt{16.0000000135&#10;m^{2}}            Find the square root

r ≈ 4m

The radius of the field that has the area of the difference in the two fields is 4m.

HELP!! Please, I'll give the first person to get it right a brainliest!<br> 0.8/y =2: 3/4
anastassius [24]

Answer:

0.291 is the closest

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so 0.8/y=2 3/4

first of all turn it into a decimal

2 3/4= 2.75

2.75=0.8/y

0.8/?=2.75

What is the answer?<br> (2 3/8 - 1/4)x1/8=?
Andrews [41]
2 3/8 - 1/4 = 2 1/8 x 1/8 = 17/64.

To do this, you first need to do the problem in the (). You have to turn 1/4 with a denominator of eight, so the fraction becomes 2/8. 2 3/8 - 2/8 = 2 1/8. Now we have to turn 2 1/8 into an improper fraction by doing whole number x denominator + numerator. 17/8 x 1/8 = 17/64.
