Lets say you can go on 'x' number of times

If every time it takes 2min to prepare for the ride and the ride itself takes 1 and 1/2 min, then both together would be

2min + 1 and 1/2 min = 3 and 1/2 min

Now divide from 30

30/ (7/2) #notice I changed 3 and 1/2 to 7/2 so they are the same denominator

= 30 * 2/7 # when dividing by a fraction, you can multiply the numerator by the reverse of the bottom fraction

= 60/7

This number can not be simplified. However the number of full rides would be 8 times

7*8 = 56

Now the remaining 4/7 times... isn't possible! You can't go on a ride less than one time!

So the answer is 8!

8 or 8 1/2 because you won't finish the ride due to 28 + 3 1/2 being odd

givi [52]

Answer:

Area of the base of the pyramid = V/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we know that the volume of the pyramid can be calculated by multiplying the area of the base by the height of the pyramid

Now using the variables in the question;

V = area of base * height of pyramid

Area of base = V/height of pyramid

Area of base = V/h
