Answer:

The answer is triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangular pyramid is sliced so the cross section is perpendicular to its base and passes through its vertex.

The shape of the cross section will be a triangle.

A rectangular pyramid is a 3 D object with a rectangular base and a triangular face corresponding to each side of the base. When it is sliced  perpendicular to its base and the cross section passes through its vertex, then a triangle is formed.

The answer for the question shown above is: The shape of the cross section is a triangle.

 The explanation is shown below:

 Imagine that you have a plane that intersect the rectangular pyramid and it passes through its vertex and it is perpendicular to the base of the pyramid, when you look the cut, you will see a triangle as a cross section.

The roots of the polynomial <span><span>x^3 </span>− 2<span>x^2 </span>− 4x + 2</span> are:

<span><span>x1 </span>= 0.42801</span>

<span><span>x2 </span>= −1.51414</span>

<span><span>x3 </span>= 3.08613</span>


x1 and x2 are in the desired interval [-2, 2]

f'(x) = 3x^2 - 4x - 4

so we have:

3x^2 - 4x - 4 = 0

<span>x = ( 4 +- </span><span>√(16 + 48) </span>)/6

x_1 = -4/6 = -0.66

x_ 2 = 2

According to Rolle's theorem, we have one point in between:

x1 = 0.42801 and x2 = −1.51414

where f'(x) = 0, and that is <span>x_1 = -0.66</span>

so we see that Rolle's theorem holds in our function.

Write the slope intercept form of the equation of the line through the given point
ozzi

Answer:

y =  -\frac{3}{4}x

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

Given: slope(m) = -\frac{3}{4}, point (4, -3)

We already have the value of m, but we need to find the value of b. To do this, input the given values of the slope and the point into the equation:

-3 =  -\frac{3}{4}(4) + b

Solve for b:

-3 =  -\frac{3}{4}(4) + b

-3 = -3 + b

0 = b

The value of b is zero. We can now write the equation:

y =  -\frac{3}{4}x + 0

y =  -\frac{3}{4}x

The equation written in slope-intercept form is: y =  -\frac{3}{4}x
