Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular pyramid is given by:

V=l×b×h

Where l is the length,b is the width and h is the height

Now, l'=l/2

b'=b/2

and h'=2h

V'=Volume of new pyramid

= l'×b'×h'

= l/2×b/2×2h

= lbh/2

=V/2

Hence, Volume of new pyramid=2×Volume of old pyramid

It's 1/2 of the original volume.

Find the exact volume of the cylinder.

Verizon [17]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ 200 \pi \ ft^3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the volume of the cylinder. The formula for calculating a cylinder's volume is:

$v= \pi r^2 h$

We know the height of the cylinder is 8 feet. We are given the diameter, the distance from edge to edge through the center. We want to find the radius, the distance from the edge to the center.

The radius is half the diameter.

r = d/2
r= 10 ft/2
r=5 ft

We know both variables (h= 8ft and r=5 ft) and can substitute them into the formula.

$v= \pi (5 \ ft)^2 * (8 \ ft)$

Solve the exponent.

5 ft * 5ft = 25 ft²

$v= \pi (25 \ ft^2)(8 \ft)$

Multiply the numbers in parentheses.

$v= \pi (200 \ ft^3)$

$v= 200 \pi \ ft^3$

The volume of the cylinder is <u>200π cubic feet and choice C is correct.</u>

Construct a 99% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion with a sample proportion equal to 0.36 and a sample s

vivado [14]

Using the z-distribution, the 99% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion is: (0.2364, 0.4836).

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which:

$\pi$ is the sample proportion.

z is the critical value.

n is the sample size.

In this problem, we have a 99% confidence level, hence $\alpha = 0.99$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $\frac{1+0.99}{2} = 0.995$ , so the critical value is z = 2.575.
