Answer:

Surface area of square pyramid is computed as follows:

A = a² + a*√(a² + 4h²)

where <em>a</em> is the base length and <em>h</em> is the height.

If a model of the square pyramid is scaled down by a factor of x, then the surface area will be:

A' = (a/x)² + (a/x)*√[(a/x)² + 4(h/x)²]

A' = a²/x² + a/x * √[a²/x² + 4h²/x²]

A' = a²/x² + a/x * √[(a² + 4h²)/x²]

A' = a²/x² + a/x * √(a² + 4h²)/√x²

A' = a²/x² + a/x² * √(a² + 4h²)

A' = 1/x² * [a² + a*√(a² + 4h²)]

A' = 1/x² * A

That is, the surface area will be 1/x² times the original surface area. If h = 25 ft and a = 15 ft:

A = 15² + 15*√(15² + 4(25)²) =  1008.02 ft²

The factor is not mentioned in the question, nevertheless, the area will be  1008.02/factor² ft²

A train travels in a straight path at a steady speed of 1.25 miles per minute. At noon, the train is 100 miles from the starting
Leto [7]
We'll take 1.25 miles as one minute (x) and take 100 as total distance (D) while T is the time it took to reach that distance.
T = D/x
putting the values in
T = 100/1.25
T = 80
80 minutes is the answer.

14) The perimeter of this isosceles triangle is represented by the
Galina-37 [17]

The isosceles triangle is missing so i have attached it.

Answer:

Length of unknown side = 5p + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In isosceles triangle, two of the sides are equal. In the attached triangle, we see that one of the equal sides is given as 5p + 3.

Thus,the second equal side is also 5p + 3.

Now, perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the three sides.

We have two sides and let the third side be denoted as x.

Thus;

Perimeter = (5p + 3) + (5p + 3) + x

We are given perimeter = 15p + 12

Thus;

(5p + 3) + (5p + 3) + x = 15p + 12

10p + 6 + x = 15p + 12

Rearranging, we have;

x = 15p - 10p + 12 - 6

x = 5p + 6
