Answer:

The discount would be 33.334%

Step-by-step explanation:

For solving the exercise you must take into account that the 3 products correspond to the 100%. If we pay just 2 for 3, we must find the proportion of 2 respect to the total. We use rule of three.

3   ----->   100%

2   ----->     x

x=\frac{2\cdot 100\%}{3}

x=66.666\%

Now, 2 products corresponds to the 66.666%. If we pay 2 and the store give us 3, it means that the store are giving one for free. We are paying the 66.666% of the total of the price. So, the rest, it means 100%-66.666% =33.334% is the discount.

The discount refers to the product we didn't pay for, it means 1 product.

The discount would be 33.334%

Answer:

First picture - 20.42 m

Second picture - 12.9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Formula for pyramid:

V=b^2\frac{h}3

Where,

b = base - 3.5 m

h = height - 5 m

Thus,

V=3.5^2\frac{5}{3}

20.41667m^3 ≈ 20.42m^3

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Formula for pyramid:

V=b^2\frac{h}3

Where,

b = base - 3 m

h = height - 4.3 m

Thus,

V = 3^2\frac{4.3}{3}

12.9m^3

A pyramid has a rectangular base of length (3x + 1)cm and width xcm.
sergey [27]

Answer:

The dimension of the base of the Rectangle Pyramid is Length = 10 and Width = 8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rectangle Pyramid

Base Length = 3x + 1

Base Width = x

Height = 12

Volume = 96

Required

Dimension of the base of the pyramid

Given that the volume of the pyramid is ⅓ of the base area * the height.

This is represented mathematical as

Volume = ⅓ * base area * height.

Where

Base area = width * length

Base area = (3x + 1) * x

Base area = 3x² + x.

So,

Volume becomes

Volume = ⅓ * (3x² + x) * 12.

Volume = (3x² + x) * 4

Substitute 96 for volume

96 = (3x² + x) * 4

Divide both sides by 4

96/4 = (3x² + x) * 4/4

24 = 3x² + x

Subtract 24 fr both sides

24 - 24 = 3x² + x - 24

0 = 3x² + x - 24

3x² + x - 24 = 0

Expand

3x² + 9x - 8x - 24 = 0

Factorize

3x(x + 3) - 8(x + 3) = 0

(3x - 8)(x + 3) = 0

3x - 8 = 0 or x + 3 = 0

3x = 8 or x = -3

x = 8/3 or x = -3

Recall that

Length = 3x + 1

Width = x

For any of the above expression, x can't be less than 0; so, x = -3 can't be considered.

Substitute x = 8/3

Length = 3x + 1

Length = 3(8/3) + 1

Length = 8 + 1

Length = 9

Width = x

Width = 8/3

Hence, the dimension of the base of the Rectangle Pyramid is Length = 10 and Width = 8/3
