Answer:

Surface area of pyramid with base equilateral triangle is 390+100\sqrt{3} square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the following result:

The total surface area(S) of a regular pyramid is given by,

S = \frac{1}{2}pl+B                                       ...... (1)

Here, p represents the perimeter of the base , l the slant height and B the base area of the pyramid.

From the given information:

Side of equilateral triangle = 20 inches

Slant height of the pyramid(l) = 13 inches.

First find the perimeter and Area of the base pyramid.

Perimeter of equilateral triangle(p) = 3 \times (side)

                                                          = 3 \times 20 = 60 inches

Area of equilateral triangle(B) = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} \times (side)^{2}

                                                 =\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} \times (20)^2 = 100\sqrt{3}  square inches.

Substitute the above values in equation (1) as shown below:

S=\frac{1}{2} \times 60 \times 13+100\sqrt{3}

S= 390+100\sqrt{3} square inches

Hence, the surface area of pyramid with base equilateral triangle is 390+100\sqrt{3} square inches.

find the equation of the linear function which passes through the points (1,-3) and (4,-2) give your answer in y=mx+b form
Tpy6a [65]
To solve this problem, we first have to find the slope of the two given points. To find the slope, we have to use slope intercept form, which is y₂ - y₁ divided by x₂ - x₁. We substitute each variable for its corresponding value, and we'll get -2 - (-3) divided by 4-1. If we simplify the expression, we'll get 1/3. Next, we plug in the slope and one ordered pair into the equation and we get -3 = 1/3 * 1 + b. We should solve for b and we end up with -3 1/3 = b. Therefore, the equation is y = 1/3x - 3 1/3.

Help! <br> Which expression is equivalent? <br> On edge
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: Choice B

x^{1/8}y^{8}

======================================================

Explanation:

The two rules we use are

(a*b)^c = a^c*b^c

(a^b)^c = a^{b*c}

When applying the first rule to the expression your teacher gave you, we can say that:

\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = \left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2}

Then applying the second rule lets us say

\left(x^{1/4}\right)^{1/2}*\left(y^{16}\right)^{1/2} = x^{1/4*1/2}*y^{16*1/2} = x^{1/8}y^{8}

Therefore,

\left(x^{1/4}y^{16}\right)^{1/2}  = x^{1/8}y^{8}

-------------

In short, we just multiplied each exponent inside by the outer exponent 1/2.

So that explains why the exponents go from {1/4,16} to {1/8,8} for x and y in that exact order.

Solve the equation, and check the solutions (√x+3)+6=3.
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The equation has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

First, let´s write the equation:

(√x + 3) + 6 = 3

To solve the equation, let´s subtract 6 to both sides of the equation:

√x + 3 = -3

subtract 3 to both sides of the equation:

√x = -6  (the square root of any number can´t be negative, but let´s solve it anyway and then check the solution).

Square both sides of the equation:

x = 36

Now, let´s check the solution:

(√x + 3) + 6 = 3

x = 36

(√36 + 3) + 6 = 3

(6 + 3) + 6 = 3

9 + 6 = 3

15 ≠ 3

Then, the equation has no solution.

Have a nice day!
