Some sets of three are collinear
Answer: An expression for the height is: H = (3/64)V
To start with, we will assume that it is a square pyramid, meaning all the sides of the base are 8 feet wide.
Now, we need the formula for the volume of a square pyramid.
V = BH/3
We know the area of the base, it is 8 x 8 = 64, so we can input that.
V = 64H/3 We can multiply by 3/64 to find an expression for the height of the fort.
(3/64)V = H
Write and solve an equation of ratios:
5 *10^9 years 100 m
------------------- = --------------
5 * 10^3 yrs x
Reducing the first fraction,
100 m
10^6 = ----------
x
100 m
Solving for x, x = ------------- = 10^(-4) m, or [10^(-1)] * [10^(-3))]
10^6
this comes out to one tenth of 1 millimeter.
B+c/d=a subtract b from both sides
c/d=a-b multiply both sides by d
c=d(a-b) or if you prefer
c=ad-bd
Note: if you meant a=(b+c)/d, multiply both sides by d
b+c=ad subtract b from both sides
c=ad-b
If we multiply the ratio
... 25 g : 1 cm
by 5, we get
... 125 g : 5 cm
The number on the left is 75 g more than 50 g.
