<u>Answer </u>

The shape of the cross section is Hexagon.

Option A is the correct answer.

<u>Explanation </u>

The given pyramid is pentagonal pyramid. The cross section of pentagonal pyramid is a pentagon.

But in the given figure a plane cuts a pyramid in a different way. After cutting the shape of the cross section will have six sides.

So it will be a hexagon. All sides are not equal so it is not a regular hexagon.

Write an algebraic expression that Marshall can use to determine the total cost of buying a watermelon that weighs w pounds and

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The answer is that the cost will be a total of: $142.05. That is $125.80 for Watermelon that weighs 185 lbs and $16.25 for 5 lbs of tomatoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Watermelons are .68 / lb and tomatoes are 3.25 / lb.

Let w = watermelon weight and tomato weight.

An equation would be:

.68w + 3.25t = Total cost

For 185 lb of Watermelon and 5 lbs of tomatoes:

.68(185) + 3.25(5) =

$125.80 + $16.25 = $142.05

Suppose log subscript a x equals 3, log subscript a y equals 7, and log subscript a z equals short dash 2. Find the value of the

enyata [817]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following logarithmic expressions $log_ax = 3, log_ay = 7, log_az = -2$ , we are to find the value of $log_a(\frac{x^3y}{z^4} )$

$from\ log_ax = 3, x = a^3\\\\from\ log_ay = 7,y = a^7\\\\from\ log_az = -2, z = a^{-2}$ Substituting x = a³, y = a⁷ and z = a⁻² into the log function $log_a(\frac{x^3y}{z^4} )$ we will have;

$= log_a(\frac{x^3y}{z^4} )\\\\= log_a(\dfrac{(a^3)^3*a^7}{(a^{-2})^4} )\\\\= log_a(\dfrac{a^9*a^7}{a^{-8}} )\\\\= log_a\dfrac{a^{16}}{a^{-8}} \\\\= log_aa^{16+8}\\\\= log_aa^{24}\\\\= 24log_aa\\\\= 24* 1\\\\= 24$

Hence, the value of the logarithm expression is 24
