The height is the measurement from the base to the top straight up.

The Slanted height is the height from base to top on one face of the pyramid.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The height of a pyramid is the perpendicular height of the apex above the base. Apex is the pin point above the pyramid, where all the triangular faces join.

The slant height of a pyramid is defined as the distance measured along a lateral face of the pyramid from the base to the apex along the center of the face.

The slant height is found by using the Pythagorean theorem where the slant height is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

A man sells a type of nut for $7 per pound and a different one for $4.20 per pound, how much of each type should be used to make

qwelly [4]

Answer:

a type nut is 10 pounds

a different one is 14 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

let a type of the nut be represented by t

Let a different one be represented by d

a type of nut cost $7 per pound

a different one cost $4.20 per pound

The cost of the mixture for 24 pounds = 5.37 * 24

= $128.88

t + d = 24 ........(1)

7t + 4.2d = 128.88 ..........(2)

From equation (1), t = 24 - d

Put t = 24 - d in equation 2

7(24 - d) + 4.2d = 128.88

168 - 7d + 4.2d = 128.88

168 - 2.8d = 128.88

-2.8d = 128.88 - 168

-2.8d = -39.12

d = -39.12 / -2.8

d= 13.97

d = 14 pounds

t = 24 - d

t = 24 - 14

t = 10 pounds

A type nut is 10 pounds. A different one is 14 pounds

What is the length of the major axis of the conic section shown below?

sveticcg [70]

$\dfrac{(x-2)^2}{49}+\dfrac{(y+5)^2}{36}=1$

The equation of a elipse:

$\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1$

The length of the major axis is equal 2a if a > b or 2b if b > a.

We have

$a^2=49\to a=\sqrt{49}=7\\\\b^2=36\to b=\sqrt{36}=6\\\\a > b$

therefore the length of the major axis is equal 2 · 7 = 14.
