Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

(5 - a) = 20 + (6a -1) . . . . . 5-a is 20 greater than 6a-1

5 = 7a +19 . . . . . . . . . . . . . add a, collect terms

-14 = 7a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 19

-2 = a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

The value of the variable is -2.

_____

<u>Check</u>

5 - (-2) = 7

6(-2) -1 = -13

7 is 20 greater than -13, so the answer checks OK.

Find the volume of the square pyramid below
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a pyramid is

V = \frac{1}{3} area of base × perpendicular height (h)

area of square base = 4² = 16 and h = 4, hence

V = \frac{1}{3} × 16 × 4 = \frac{64}{3} = 21 \frac{1}{3} ft³

Find the volume V or height H of the cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth
andrew-mc [135]
X = multiplication
h = height
r^2 = radius squared

Formula of a cylinder: Pi x r^2 x height

So, if 176 = 3.14... times 4^2  times h
Then, 176 = 3.14 times 16h 
Next, 176 = 50.24h
Finally, 3.5 = h

You can then check your work by plugging 3.5 back in for the missing height and round to the nearest tenth. :) The answer should come out the same if done correctly.
