So the picture below shows what the slant height is. It also shows that the pyramid can form a right triangle, in which we can use the pythagorean theorem, which is
.
But first, we have to find the height of this pyramid. The volume formula for a square pyramid is
. Since we know its a square pyramid, the length and width are going to be the same (12 ft), and we know that the volume is 432 ft^3. Using this info, we can solve for the height:

So now we can use the pythagorean theorem (remember to split the 12 by 2, since the right triangle has only half the length of the base). Our equation will be solved as such:

In short, the slant height is 10.8 ft.
68-40=28
28/4=7
therefore, 7 is your answer
(Hope it helps my friend ^_^)
Answer:
Both equation represent functions
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is the relation that for each input, there is only one output.
A. Consider the equation

This equation represents the function, because for each input value x, there is exactly one output value y.
To check whether the equation represents a function, you can use vertical line test. If all vertical lines intersect the graph of the function in one point, then the equation represents the function.
When you intersect the graph of the function
with vertical lines, there will be only one point of intersection (see blue graph in attached diagram). So this equation represents the function.
B. Consider the equation

This equation represents the function, because for each input value x, there is exactly one output value y.
When you intersect the graph of the function
with vertical lines, there will be only one point of intersection (see green graph in attached diagram). So this equation represents the function.
