Answer:
10.31 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
the base is 25 ft²
leaves 100 ft² for the 4 sides on top
so each triangle got 25ft²
the base length of the triangle is 5ft, bc it's the base length of the pyramid 
so the height of the triangle is 10ft,
bc only then do we get a surface area of 25ft²
(b * h /2) for the triangle 
now that we got base length and height,
let's look for the slant
we recall the pythagoras stuff to get the missing side of the triangle. but notice that we need to split the triangle in half to get a 90° angle.
leaving us with 10ft (height) and 2.5ft
slant² = 10² + 2.5²
slant² = 106.25
slant = sqrt(106.25)
slant = 10.31
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
If you turn 9 1/3 in to a decimal and 3 1/2 in a decimal also 
9 1/3 = 9.3 and 3 1/2 =3.5 
9.3+3.5 =12.8 
12.8=12 4/5
        
             
        
        
        
Common ratio, r = (3/2)/(3/20) = 10.
3/20,   3/2,  15, 
4th term = 15*10 = 150
5th term = 150*10 = 1500
5th term = 1500
        
             
        
        
        
They want you to write the number in index form.
The number is 5N^2, where N = 3 x 5^2 x x^3
So:
5N^2 = 5 x (3 x 5^2 x x^3)^2
          = 5 x (3^2 x 5^4 x x^6)
          = 3^2 x 5^5 x x^6
or a bit neater looking:  3² ₓ 5⁵ ₓ x⁶
