Answer:
64 cubic metres
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangular pyramid volume formula resembles the volume formula for any other pyramid or cone:
V = A * H / 3
where:
A is the area of the pyramid's base
H is the height from the base to the point
In other words: the volume of a triangular pyramid is one-third of the product of the base area and the pyramid's height.
8 x 6 / 2 to find area of base = 24
x 8 = 192
192 / 3 = 64
Hope this makes sense. If you would like, I can l1nk to a very useful website, or I can explain it further.

Beautiful ! What a great exercise ! I won't even check to verify
that 1:10⁻¹⁹ is an appropriate scale to map the Milky Way onto a
football field. I'll just accept it and go from there.
(4.4 light years) x (10⁻¹⁹) = (2.5848 x 10¹³ miles) x (10⁻¹⁹)
= 2.5848 x 10⁻⁶ mile
= 0.164 inch .
(1,391,400 kilometers) x (10⁻¹⁹) = 1.3914 x 10⁻¹⁰ meter
Research Conclusions:
If the Milky Way shrinks to fit on a football field, then
-- Alpha Centauri is 0.164 inch from us.
-- The sun's diameter is about 1.39 times that of a Hydrogen atom.
Playing with this same fun concept a little more:
-- The Earth is sailing around in its orbit, once a year,
about 0.000015 millimeter from the sun.
-- It takes light almost 27 years to travel 1 inch !
wow !
Answer:
28%
Step-by-step explanation:
X=12
0.75x + 5=14
Take away 5 on both sides
So 0.75x +5-5=14-5
0.75x=9
0.75x divided by 9 = 12
To factor this fraction, you have be be aware of two special factoring formula:
a^3<span> + </span>b^3<span> = (</span>a<span> + </span>b)(a^2<span> – </span>ab<span> + </span>b^2<span>)
</span><span>(a+b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
You can see the top part in this case is (x+y)^3, and the bottom (denominator) can be factor into (x+y)(x^2-xy+y^2)
we can cancel (x+y), so what we have left is (x+y)^2/(x^2-xy+y^2)
or (x^2+2xy+y^2)/(x^2-xy+y^2)
