Type of prism is decided by the name of base. Like it can be triangular, square, pentagon etc.

Given that prism is triangular so that means it's base is a triangle.

Given that Brad cuts the given triangular prism with a plane parallel to the base of the prism.

Now we have to find the shape of the cross section of that plane.

It is obvious that the plane obtaind after cutting the ptrism parallel to the base will be of same shape as base.

Hence required plane will be a triangle.

A mother is currently 7 times older than her son. In 3 years time, she will be 5 times older than her son. Let x and y be the pr

Softa [21]

Answer:

If the child is currently 6 years old and the mom is 42, in three years she'll be 45 and he'll be 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The son is y and the mom is x

x=7y

x+3=5(y+3)

7y+3=5y+15

7y=5y+12

2y=12

y=6

What is the ratio of the intensities of an earthquake PP wave passing through the Earth and detected at two points 19 kmkm and 4

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The ratio of the intensities is roughly 6:1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The intensity I() of an earthquake wave is given by:

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi d^{2}}$

where P: is the power ans d: is the distance.

Hence, the ratio of the intensities of an earthquake wave passing through the Earth and detected at two points 19 km and 46 km from the source is:

$\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = \frac{P/4\pi d_{1}^{2}}{P/4\pi d_{2}^{2}}$

where I₁ = P/4πd₁², d₁=19 km, I₁ = P/4πd₂² and d₂=46 km

$\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = \frac{d_{2}^{2}}{d_{1}^{2}}$

$\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = \frac{46 km^{2}}{19 km^{2}}$

$\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = 5.9:1$

Therefore, the ratio of the intensities is roughly 6:1.

I hope it helps you!

In each case, determine if the function can be differentiated using the rules developed so far (sections 3.1 and 3.2). (a) y = 2

Alex_Xolod [135]

The rule for differentiation for variable with exponents has the formula:

d/dx (xⁿ) = nxⁿ⁻¹
where n is the exponent

Thus, for the given equation, the solution is as follows:
y = 2x²
dy/dx = 2(2)x²⁻¹ = 4x

Thus, the derived equation of the given would now be 4x.
