Answer:

volume = 195.52 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

slant height of the cake = 10 inches

base length =  8 inches

solution

we know that volume pyramid is express as

volume = \frac{A^2\times h}{3}    ..............1

here

we use pythagoras for height

hypotenuse² = side1² + side2²    

put here value with other side is half of a square side

10² = h² + 4²

solve it we get

h = 9.165 in

so put here value in equation 1 we get

volume = \frac{8^2\times 9.165}{3}  

volume = 195.52 in³

Sophie [7]
In this question, the thing that needs to be found is the number whose 20% would be 18. The information's required for getting to the solution are already provided in the question. based on those given information's, the answer can be deduced very easily.
Let us assume the unknown number to be = x
Then
(20/100) * x = 18
x/5 = 18
x = 18 * 5
   = 90
so the unknown number in the question is 90. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
