This question is incomplete because it lacks the appropriate attachment containing the argument of Paul and Manuel

Kindly find attached the appropriate attachment necessary to solve this question.

The attachment was sourced online

Answer:

a) Paul's argument is correct, Manuel used the wrong formula to find the volume of square pyramid X

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we are given two shapes: Cone W and Square Pyramid

Cone W: Radius = 8cm, Height = 5cm

Volume of a Cone = 1/3 πr²h

Where π = 3.14

Volume of Cone X = 1/3 × 3.14 × 8² × 5

= 334.93cm³

For Square pyramid X

Volume = 1/3 × Base Area × Height

Base Area of Cone W = Base Area of square pyramid X = πr²

Where π = 3.14

Base area = 3.14 × 8² = 200.96cm²

Height of Square pyramid X = Height of Cone W = 5cm

Volume of Square pyramid = 1/3 ×200.96cm² × 5cm

= 334.93cm³

Therefore, from my above calculation and compared with the arguments of Paul and Manuel, Option a) "Paul's argument is correct, Manuel used the wrong formula to find the volume of square pyramid X" is the correct option.

The reason why is because the correct formula for the volume of a square pyramid = 1/3 × Base area × Height

This was the formula Paul used.

Manuel on the other hand used the formula: Base Area × Height to find the volume of cone W. This formula is wrong.

Option a, is the correct answer.

Jill earn $15 per hour babysitting class a transportation fee of five dollars per job. Write a formula for E, Ji Jill earn $15 p
daser333 [38]
Since you know the amount of what she earns you would use the number 15 and you dont know how long she worked you would put "x" next to the 15. so you would have 15x and then put a plus 5 to show her transportation fee. so you would have the equation of 15x+5:) and instead of x use h to show hours because h=hours

you feel me?

What is the difference of the fractions? Use the number line to help find the answer
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

-7/10

Explanation:

Given the expression

\frac{1}{2}-1\frac{1}{5}

We can rewrite the expression as:

\frac{1}{2}-\frac{6}{5}=\frac{5}{10}-\frac{12}{10}

The number line showing the location of the two numbers is attached below. Therefore:

\frac{5}{10}-\frac{12}{10}=-\frac{7}{10}
