Answer:

4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a square pyramid is (a²)*h/3

256=a²*12/3

256=a²*4

256/4=a²

64=a²

a=8

Now we know that the square is 8 by 8.

The volume of a square prism is a²h

256=64h

256/64=h

h=4

Also, a square pyramid is 1/3 the volume of a square prism.

12÷3=4

But why multiply though ?
Mice21 [21]
<span>We memorize daily, but do you realize that your brain is like a computer. Whatever you put into it, will most probably remain there for a long period of time. You can choose to fill it with unimportant things, or you can fill it with skills that can be a benefit to you your entire life. Like multiplication. You will use this skill for as long as you live. Using and teaching your brain to memorize is probably the most important skill of all.</span>

ryan earns $5 for each small dog he walks and $8 for each latge dog he walks. today he walked 8 dogs and made a total of $55. ho
ad-work [718]

If we divide 55 (the total amount of money he made) by 5 (price to walk one small dog), we get 11. Meaning that the maximum amount of small dogs he could possibly walk and receive that amount of money is 11. However, he only walked 8 dogs. Therefore Ryan would have needed to walk a specific amount of large dogs in order to earn 55 dollars in total.

After doing some process of elimination, I reached this conclusion:

3 small dogs = $15

5 large dogs = $40

The combination of the two would equal $55.

Therefore, the answer would be 3 small dogs.

nadia wants to enclose a square garden with fencing has an area of 141 ft.² to the nearest foot how much fencing will she need e
Andreas93 [3]

We know that area of the square is 141 square feet. Therefore, we can figure out the dimension of square using formula for area as shown below:

Area=a^{2}\\141=a^{2}\\a=\sqrt{141}=11.874

We know that fencing is used along the sides of the square. Therefore, amount of fencing required will be equal to perimeter of square.

Hence, we can write:

\text{Amount of fencing}=\text{Perimeter of square}

\text{Amount of fencing}=4a=4(11.874)=47.496

Upon rounding to nearest foot, we get the amount of fencing required as 48 feet.
