Answer:

The volume of the larger pyramid is equal to 7,133\ cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the scale factor

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor

Let

z----> the scale factor

In this problem, the ratio of the height is equal to the scale factor

z=\frac{4}{7}

step 2

Find the volume of the larger pyramid

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

z----> the scale factor

x----> volume of the smaller pyramid

y----> volume of the larger pyramid

z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}

we have

z=\frac{4}{7}

x=1,331\ cm^{3}

substitute

(\frac{4}{7})^{3}=\frac{1,331}{y}\\ \\(\frac{64}{343})=\frac{1,331}{y}\\ \\y=343*1,331/64\\ \\y=7,133\ cm^{3}

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Null hypothesis:\mu = 65  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 65

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

For this case the value of \mu represent the parameter associated to the population (True average of cofee temperature)

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=70.2 represent the mean height for the sample  

s represent the sample standard deviation for the sample  

n=20 sample size  

\mu_o =765 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean i equal to 70.2, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu = 65  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 65  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

For this case the value of \mu represent the parameter associated to the population (True average of cofee temperature)

Anna [14]

Answer:

hope this helpful

Step-by-step explanation:

isosceles right

because A light ray incident at 90° at the first face emerges at the same angle. The diagram shows five isosceles right-angled prisms. A light ray incident at 90° at the first face emerges at the same angle with the normal from the last face.

Merideth measured 3.25 cups of flour and 1.625 cups of brown sugar into
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is just an addition question. If you have a calculator just add the numbers.

3.25 + 1.625 = 4.875 cups in the bowl.

Sometimes you can use another method. Sometimes it is shorter.

3 1/4 + 1 5/8 = 3 2/8 + 1 5/8 = 4 7/8.

7/8 = 0.875
