Six pyramids are shown inside of a cube. The height of the cube is h units. Six identical square pyramids can fill the same volu

me as a cube with the same base. If the height of the cube is h units, what is true about the height of each pyramid? The height of each pyramid is One-halfh units. The height of each pyramid is One-thirdh units. The height of each pyramid is One-sixthh units. The height of each pyramid is h units.

Answer:

(A)The height of each pyramid is One-half h units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the Cube = h units

Volume of the Cube $=h^3 $ cubic units$

If Base of the cube =Base of the square pyramid

Base of the square pyramid = h units

$\text{Volume of a Pyramid}=\dfrac{1}{3}*Base Area*Height$

$\text{Volume of One Pyramid}=\dfrac{1}{3}*h^2*Height$

$\text{Volume of Six Pyramids}=6*\dfrac{1}{3}*h^2*Height\\=(2h^2*Height)\:cubic\:units$

Since Volume of the Cube = Volume of Six Square Pyramids

Then:

$2h^2*Height=h^3\\Height=\dfrac{h^3}{2h^2} \\$Height of each pyramid =\dfrac{1}{2}h \:Units$

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population mean. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population standard devia

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (3)

$n=(\frac{2.58(54.5)}{5})^2 =790.846 \approx 791$

So the answer for this case would be n=791 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.99 or 99%, the value of $\alpha=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.005,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (2)

And on this case we have that ME =+5 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (2) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (3)

$n=(\frac{2.58(54.5)}{5})^2 =790.846 \approx 791$

So the answer for this case would be n=791 rounded up to the nearest integer

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-9, -9) −6,−12)?

Fed [463]

Answer:

m = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Therefore,

slope = (-12-(-9))/(-6-(-9))

= -3/3

=-1
