Answer:

The largest  number of pyramids she can make from 20 bars of chocolate is:

  • <u>A. 180</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you must find the volume of the 20 bars of chocolate, remember that each bar contains 6 cubic inches of chocolate (6 in^3), so:

  • Volume of the bars = 6 in^3 * 20
  • <u>Volume of the bars = 120 in^3</u>

Now, you must find the volume of each pyramid, using the next formula:

  • Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 B * h

Where:

<em>B = area of the square base.</em>

<em>h = height of the pyramid.</em>

How these values are given in the problem, we only replace the values in the formula:

  • Area of a pyramid = 1/3 (1 in^2) * 2 in
  • <u>Area of a pyramid = 2/3 in^3</u>

Finally, we divide the volume of the bars in the volume of each pyramid:

  • Total number of pyramids = 120 in^3 / 2/3 in^3
  • <u>Total number of pyramids = 180</u>

Could the equation. For the graph of the function have degree 4?explain
aivan3 [116]

The graphed polynomial seems to have a degree of 2, so the degree can be 4 and not 5.

<h3>Could the graphed function have a degree 4?</h3>

For a polynomial of degree N, we have (N - 1) changes of curvature.

This means that a quadratic function (degree 2) has only one change (like in the graph).

Then for a cubic function (degree 3) there are two, and so on.

So. a polynomial of degree 4 should have 3 changes. Naturally, if the coefficients of the powers 4 and 3 are really small, the function will behave like a quadratic for smaller values of x, but for larger values of x the terms of higher power will affect more, while here we only see that as x grows, the arms of the graph only go upwards (we don't know what happens after).

Then we can write:

y = a*x^4 + c*x^2 + d

That is a polynomial of degree 4, but if we choose x^2 = u

y = a*u^2 + c*u + d

So it is equivalent to a quadratic polynomial.

Then the graph can represent a function of degree 4 (but not 5, as we can't perform the same trick with an odd power).
