Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Devin is making a candle by pouring melted wax into a mold in the shape of a square pyramid.

Each side of the base of the pyramid is 9 cm and the height of the pyramid is 10 cm (as shown in figure below)

also, To get the wax for the candle, Devin melts cubes of wax that are each 4 cm by 4 cm by 4 cm

We have to find the number of wax cubes will Devin need in order to make the candle.

Consider Wax cubes of dimension 4 cm by 4 cm by 4 cm

Volume of cube = (side)³

Thus, Volume of one wax cube is given by = (side)³

Volume of one wax cube = (4)³= 64 cm³

Now we find the volume of square pyramid.

Volume of square pyramid =

Thus,Volume of given square base with base side 9 cm and height 10 cm is

Area of square = (side)²

Volume of square pyramid =

thus, the volume of square pyramid is 270 cm³

(approx)

Thus, the number of wax cubes required is 4.21. Rounding it off to the nearest whole number, we will get 5.

Thus,the number of wax cubes required is 5.

Elijah used 17 connecting cubes to make a model kitchen. the kitchen model is in the shape of a rectangle and is one cube high.

Archy [21]

There is only one way, a rectangle that is one block by 17 blocks. This is because the only factors of 17 are 1 and 17.

Miguel bikes 23 km per hour and starts at mile 10. Gabby bies 28 km per hour and starts at mile 0. Which system of linear equati

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

y = 23x + 10

y = 28x + 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Miguel :

Velocity = 23 km/hr

Starting position = 10 miles

Gabby:

Velocity = 28 km/hr

Starting position = 0 miles

The general form of a linear equation :

y = mx + c

In the scenario above ; the starting points corresponds to the intercept, c

The distance moved per hour (velocity) is the slope (m), which is the change in y per unit change in x

Hence ;

Miguel:

y = 23x + 10

Gabby:

y = 28x + 0

A ball dropped from the top of a building can be modeled by the function

timama [110]

A ball dropped from the top of the building can be modeled by the function f(t)=-16t^2 + 36 , where t represents time in seconds after the ball was dropped. A bee's flight can be modeled by the function, g(t)=3t+4, where t represents time in seconds after the bee starts the flight.
