Answer:
d. 27 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
volume of cube = s^3 = B * s
volume of pyramid = (1/3) * B * h
The volume of a pyramid is 1/3 of the area of the base multiplied by the height. The volume of a cube is the area of the base multiplied by the height. Since the volume of a pyramid has the fraction 1/3 and the volume of the cube does not, then the volume of a cube is 3 times greater than the volume of a pyramid that fits inside and has the same base area.
volume of pyramid = 9 cu ft
volume of cube = 3 * 9 cu ft = 27 cu ft
Answer: d. 27 cubic feet
Answer:
Slope = -5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Take 2 points from the graph where the line is. Point 1: (1 , 6). Point 2: (9 , 1).
We are going to use the formula for finding the slope of a line now.
y2 - y1/x2 - x1 = 1 - 6/9 - 1 = -5/8
Slope = -5/8
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
[1 -2]
[3 4]
We can obtain the determinant of the above matrix by doing the following:
Determinant =(1 × 4) – (3 × –2)
Determinant = 4 – – 6
Determinant = 4 + 6
Determinant = 10
Thus, the determinant of the above matrix is 10
Answer:
5. f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
We would have to multiply the original amount by 1.50^x because the initial amount would be 1, and 50% increase would be .5 so 1.5 and you raise it to the number of years to show the total increase.
Let's test it.
Initial:
10,000
After 1 year
10,000 + (.5*10000)
10,000 + 5000 = 15,000
After 2 years
15,000 + (.5*15000)
15,000 + 7500 = 22,500
Let's try our equation.
f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x
x = 2
10,000(1.5)^2
10,000(2.25) = 22,500
The same!
