2. The height of one square pyramid is 24 m. A similar pyramid has a height of 8 m. The volume of the larger pyramid is 648 m3.

The surface area of the smaller pyramid is 124 m^2. Determine each of the following, showing all your work and reasoning:
a.) Find the scale factor that would take your from the small pyramid to the bigger one. (4 points)

b.) What is the surface area of the larger pyramid? (4 points)

c.) Volume of the smaller pyramid (4 points)

d.) Ratio of the volume of the smaller pyramid to the larger pyramid (4 points)

Larger PyramidHeight 24 Volume 648

Pyramid Volume = (Area of the Base * Height) ÷ 3648 = Base Area * 24 / 3Base Area = 648 * 3 / 24Base Area = 648 / 8Base Area = 81Base Length = 9
a) The Scale Factor between the Small & Large PyramidLength - 3LATERAL Area - 9Volume - 27

Slant Height^2 = 4.5^2 + 24^2Slant Height^2 = <span> <span> 596.25 </span> </span> <span><span>Slant Height^2 = 24.4182308941 </span> </span>
b)
Large Pyramid Area = (½ * Perimeter of Base * Slant Height) + Base AreaLarge Pyramid Area = (.5 * 36 * <span>24.4182308941) + 81
</span>Large Pyramid Area = 439.5281560938 + 81
Large Pyramid TOTAL Area = <span> <span> 520.5281560938 </span> </span> <span>Large Pyramid LATERAL Area =<span> 439.5281560938 </span> </span>


**********************************************************************************c)
Smaller PyramidHeight 8Surface Area = 124
This pyramid has dimensions that are one third of the larger pyramid.Therefore, it has a base length of 3.Base Area = 9.
Its base perimeter would be 12.
Small Pyramid Volume = (Area of the Base * Height) ÷ 3Small Pyramid Volume = ( 9 * 8 ) / 3Small Pyramid Volume = 72 / 3
c) Small Pyramid Volume =24 cubic meters

d) Ratio of larger pyramid volume to smaller pyramid volume648 / 24 = 27The reason? Volume is a 3 dimensional quantity.  The Larger pyramid is 3 times larger in terms of the base measurement.9 meters vs 3 meters - a factor of 3When we compare volumes, we have to cube this factor.3^3 = 27

Kate gave 5/6 of her CDs to Sue. Sue gave 7/8 of these to Joan. Joan gave 3/5 of these to Ann. Ann received 70 CDs how many did
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Let us assume the number of CDs Kate had = x
Number of CDs given to Sue = 5x/6
Number of CDs given to Joan = (5x/6) * ( 7/8)
                                                = 35x/48
Number of CDs given to Ann = (35x/48) * (3/5)
                                              = 7x/16
Total number of CDs Ann received = 70
Then
7x/16 = 70
x = 160
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the number of CDs that Kate originally had was 160. I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your help.

Find the vertex form of: y=2x^2-5x+13
Ket [755]
The vertex form of a quadratic function is:

 f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

The coordinate (h, k) represents a parabola's vertex.

In order to convert a quadratic function in standard form to the vertex form, we can complete the square.

y = 2x² - 5x + 13

Move the constant, 13, to the other side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides of the equation.

y - 13 = 2x² - 5x

Factor out 2 on the right side of the equation.

y - 13 = 2(x² - 2.5x)

Add (b/2)² to both sides of the equation, but remember that since we factored 2 out on the right side of the equation we have to multiply (b/2)² by 2 again on the left side.

y - 13 + 2(2.5/2)² = 2(x² - 2.5x + (2.5/2)²)

y - 13 + 3.125 = 2(x² - 2.5x + 1.5625)

Add the constants on the left and factor the expression on the right to a perfect square.

y - 9.875 = 2(x - 1.25)²

Now, we need y to be by itself again so add 9.875 back to both sides of the equation to move it back to the right side.

y = 2(x - 1.25)² + 9.875

Vertex: (1.25, 9.875)

Solution: y = 2(x - 1.25)² + 9.875

Or if you prefer fractions

y = 2(x - 5/4)² + 79/8

A country has 32 parks that allow camping and 43 parks that have playgrounds. Of those, 10 parks both allow camping and have pla
Olenka [21]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

32 parks allow camping

43 parks allow playgrounds

10 parks both allow camping and playgrounds

110 total parks

First, we need to add 32, 43, and 10

32 + 43 + 10 = 85

Then, we find the difference of 110 and 85

110 - 85 = 25

Since it isn't a decimal, there is no point in rounding.
