7/k - 2 = 5/8
7/k = 5/8 + 2
7/k = 2.625
7 = 2.625k
7/2.625 = 2.625k/2.625
2(2/3) = k
k = 2(2/3)

Pyramid A has a triangular base where each side measures 4 units and a volume of 36 cubic units. Pyramid B has the same height,

omeli [17]

Answer:

The volume of pyramid B is 81 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Pyramid A

$s = 4$ -- base sides

$V = 36$ -- Volume

Pyramid B

$s = 6$ --- base sides

Required

Determine the volume of pyramid B [Missing from the question]

From the question, we understand that both pyramids are equilateral triangular pyramids.

The volume is calculated as:

$V = \frac{1}{3} * B * h$

Where B represents the area of the base equilateral triangle, and it is calculated as:

$B = \frac{1}{2} * s^2 * sin(60)$

Where s represents the side lengths

First, we calculate the height of pyramid A

For Pyramid A, the base area is:

$B = \frac{1}{2} * s^2 * sin(60)$

$B = \frac{1}{2} * 4^2 * \frac{\sqrt 3}{2}$

$B = \frac{1}{2} * 16 * \frac{\sqrt 3}{2}$

$B = 4\sqrt 3$

The height is calculated from:

$V = \frac{1}{3} * B * h$

This gives:

$36 = \frac{1}{3} * 4\sqrt 3 * h$

Make h the subject

$h = \frac{3 * 36}{4\sqrt 3}$

$h = \frac{3 * 9}{\sqrt 3}$

$h = \frac{27}{\sqrt 3}$

To calculate the volume of pyramid B, we make use of:

$V = \frac{1}{3} * B * h$

Since the heights of both pyramids are the same, we can make use of:

$h = \frac{27}{\sqrt 3}$

The base area B, is then calculated as:

$B = \frac{1}{2} * s^2 * sin(60)$

Where

$s = 6$

So:

$B = \frac{1}{2} * 6^2 * sin(60)$

$B = \frac{1}{2} * 36 * \frac{\sqrt 3}{2}$

$B = 9\sqrt 3$

So:

$V = \frac{1}{3} * B * h$

Where

$B = 9\sqrt 3$ and $h = \frac{27}{\sqrt 3}$

$V = \frac{1}{3} * 9\sqrt 3 * \frac{27}{\sqrt 3}$

$V = \frac{1}{3} * 9 * 27$

$V = 81$

A.Sum of integer and its additive inverse is ___________.B.Sum of -22 and -44 is ______________.C.-36 ÷ ( ___)=-9d._________ is

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

A. 0

B. -66

C. 4

D. 998

E. -12

Step-by-step explanation:

A. By definition, the sum of anything and its additive inverse is zero.

B. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.

-22 + (-44) = -22 -44 = -66

C. -36/x = -9 can be solved by multiplying by x and dividing by -9:

-36 = -9x

-36/-9 = x = 4

Since the product of the divisor and quotient is the dividend, dividing the dividend by either gives the other. Here, your dividend is -36 and your quotient is -9. To find the divisor, you can divide -36 by -9, as we did.

D. The absolute value function changes the sign of negative numbers to positive:

|-998| = 998

E. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.

(−2)−[(−3)−(−7)−(−6)]

= -2 -(-3 +7 +6) = -2 -10 = -12

Jill added 450+790+123 and 1163 .is this sum reasonable? Explain.

AlexFokin [52]

Let us manually add the given numbers.

450

790

123

____

1363

Therefore we see that the correct answer 1363 which is far from what Jill got which is only 1163.

Therefore the answer is No, the sum should be 1363 (closer to 1400).

Which shows a function that is decreasing over its entire graph? Working on it now need ASAP

PtichkaEL [24]

One thing everyone always forgets is we don't usually see the entire graph. Once out of the frame, these functions can do anything they want.

From what we can see, only the bottom right one is always decreasing.

Answer: bottom right

By the way, the top right graph (a vertical line) isn't a function.
