WRITE Which solid has a greater volume: cone with a base radious of 7 centimeters and a height of 28 centimeters or a pyramid Wi
th base area 154 square centimeters and height of 28 centimeters? Explain your reasoning
1 answer:
The pyramid has a greater volume.
The volume of the cone is 1436.7 ( to 5 sf )
The volume of the pyramid is 1437.3 ( to 5 sf )
Both of them is 1440 when rounded off to 3 sf. However , the volume of the pyramid is greater.
( so sorry I can’t explain well but I hope it helps )
The solution is in the picture:) hope you understand better!! Sorry if It’s confusing

Answer:
The spy must have at the start the amount of $1,024 in order to escape
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
a ------> amount of money that the spy must have at the start to escape
y ----> the remaining money
x ----> the number of guards
In this problem the remaining money is going to be reduced by half, every time the spy passes through a guard, so we can use an exponential function of the form
where
a is the initial value (amount of money at the start)
b is the base
b=(1-r)
r is the rate of decay
In this problem we have
r=50% -----> r=0.50
The value of b is
b=(1-0.50)=0.50
substitute
we know that
In order to escape after the fourth guard the amount of money remaining must be equal to $64
so
For x=4, y=$64
substitute in the equation and solve for a
therefore
The spy must have at the start the amount of $1,024 in order to escape
