Answer:

5 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is

A = 1/2 (b1+b2)*h

We know the height  is 8 and the area is 64.  

Let one of the bases is b and the other is b+6

64 = 1/2 (b+ b+6) *8

Combine like terms

64 = 4 (2b+6)

Divide each side by 4

64/4 = 4/4 *(2b+6)

16 = 2b+6

Subtract 6 from each side

16-6 = 2b+6-6

10 =2b

Divide each side by2

10/2 =2b/2

5=b

The second base is

5+6 =11

The Great Pyramid has a height (h) of about 480 ft, a slant height (l) of about 560 ft and a square base of 756 ft. What is the
suter [353]

Answer: 91,445,760 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the base of this pyramid is a square, then you can use the following formula to calculate its volume:

V=\frac{s^2h}{3}

Where "s" is the lenght of any side of the base of the pyramid and "h" is the height of the pyramid.

You know that:

h=480ft\\s=756ft

Then, you can substitute these values into the formula. So, you get that the volume of The Great Pyramid is:

V=\frac{(756ft)^2(480ft)}{3}=91,445,760ft^3

NeX [460]
Let's assign variables for the unknowns. Let x be the amount of total sales while x is the amount of net sales. It is called net sales because a percentage is still deducted from it. The equation will be written as:

Net Sale = Total Sales - 0.25*Total Sales
y = x - 0.25x
y = 0.75x
