ume of the larger pyramid is 16,200 m3. Determine each of the following, showing all your work and reasoning.
(a) The scale factor of the smaller pyramid to the larger pyramid in simplest form
(b) The ratio of the area of the base of the smaller pyramid to the larger pyramid

<span>Answers:
(A) </span>Scale factor = 5/6 or 0.833
(B) Area ratio is 25:36
(C) Volume ratio is 125:216
(D) Volume of smaller pyramid = 9375m^3


<span>Explanation:
A) The formula for the scale factor for pyramids is:
Scale factor = Height of small pyramid/Height of large pyramid
</span>Scale factor <span>= 25/30 
</span>Scale factor <span>= 5/6 or 0.833

B) </span><span> The ratio of the area of the base of the smaller pyramid to the larger pyramid = (25)^2/(30)^2 </span><span>
Hence area ratio is 25:36

C) </span><span>Ratio of the volume of the smaller pyramid to the larger = (25)^3/(30)^3
</span><span>
Therefore volume ratio is 125:216

D) Volume of smaller pyramid is 125/216 times the volume of the larger pyramid, from above,

Therefore volume of smaller pyramid=</span>125/216 * 16200 = 9375m^3

Translate the statements into a confidence interval for p. Approximate the level of confidence. In a survey of 8451 U.S. adults,
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The  confidence interval is  0.304 <  p  < 0.324

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told

      The sample proportion \r p  =  0.314

      The margin of error  is E =  0.01

The confidence interval for  p is mathematically represented as

       \r p -  E  <  p  < \r p + E

=>    0.314 -  0.01  <  p  < 0.314 +  0.01

=>   0.304 <  p  < 0.324

A highway map of Ohio has a coordinate grid superimposed on top of the state. Springfield is at point (1, –4) and Columbus is at
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
The midpoint, where the rest area is, will just be the average of the coordinates of Springfield and Columbus.

Rest Area=((1+7)/2, (-4+1)/2)

Rest Area=(4, -1.5)

The distance between the two cities can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem, which used in the manner is often referred to as the "distance" formula between two points.

d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)

d^2=(7-1)^2+(1--4)^2

d^2=36+25

d^2=61

d=√61  and we are told that each unit is equal to 5.38mi so the distance from Springfield to Columbus is:

D=5.38√61 mi

D≈42.02mi  (to nearest hundredth of a mile)
