Answer:
<h2>The right answer is 415.4 cubic feet.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
As you can observe in the image attached, the composite figure is formed by a square prism and a pyramid on top.
We need to find the volum of each part separately.
<h3> Square prism.</h3>
<h3>Square pyramid.</h3>
First, we need to find the height of the pyramid. We already know the height of each triangular face of the pyramid, which divides equally the side.
Let's use Pythagorean's Theorem to find the height of the pyramid.
The height is 4.3 feet, approximately.
Now, we find the volume of the pyramid
The sum of both figures represents the total volume of the composite figure
Therefore, the right answer is 415.4 cubic feet.
We will solve this by suing simultaneous equations,
⇒ 5s + 3j = 87
4s + 2j = 64
Multiply the first equation with 4 and the second one with 5, this is to get one of the values equal so that we can cancel them out,
⇒ (5s + 3j = 87) × 4
(4s + 2j = 64) × 5
∴ ⇒ 20s + 12j = 348
20s + 10j = 320
Subtract both the equations. This is how your result (after subtraction) should look like,
⇒ 2j = 28
∴ ⇒ j = $14
Now replace the value of 'j' in one of the original equations,
⇒ 4s + 2(14) = 64
⇒ 4s + 28 = 64
⇒ 4s = 64 - 28
⇒ 4s = 36
∴ ⇒ s = $9
Therefore, one pair of jeans cost $14 and a shirt costs $9
Hope you understood! Feel free to ask me if you didn't understand a step.
1/4n-8=1/4 would be first because it says less than so you switch it. then you put the 8 since it's in the same subtraction problem. Then the word "is" indicates the equal sign. and the n represents "a number" since it is unknown.
