Yes scale factor means ratio. The height of the smaller pyramid to the larger pyramid in ratio form is 8:24 which simplifies to 1:3. The ratio of its areas is the scale factor squared, so 1^2:3^2=1:9. Since the surface area of the smaller pyramid is 124, the surface area of the larger pyramid must be 124x9. The ratio of volumes is the scale factor cubed, so 1^3:3^3=1:27. If the volume of the larger pyramid is 648, then the volume of the smaller pyramid is 1/27 of that, which equals 24.

Franklin rolls a pair of six-sided fair dice with sides numbered 1 through 6.
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The answer is 7/36.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find out how many possible outcomes there are from rolling a pair of dice. On one cube, you can roll a 1,2,3,4,5, or 6; so there are 6 outcomes. Since there are two cubes, you multiply 6 by itself to get a total of 36 possible outcomes. Next, you find the probability of the sum of the numbers rolled being an even number; the possibilities are 2,4,6,8,10, or 12, which is 6/36. The probability of rolling a multiple of 5; the one possibility is just 5, since we already accounted for rolling a 10 as an even number. So that is 1/36. The word <u>or</u> says that we add the two probabilities, so the final answer is 6/36+1/36=7/36.

Solve the equation X³+2X²-5X -6​
Natali [406]

Answer: x = {-1, -3, 2}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

x³ + 2x² - 5x - 6 = 0

Use the rational root theorem to find the possible roots:  ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6

Use Long division, Synthetic division, or plug them into the equation to see which root(s) work <em>(result in a remainder of zero)</em>.

I will use Synthetic division.  Let's try x = 1

1 |  1    2    -5     -6

  |<u>  ↓    1      3     -2 </u>      

     1     3    -2    -8   ← remainder ≠ 0 so x = 1 is NOT a root

 Let's try x = -1

- 1 |  1     2    -5    -6

   |<u>  ↓    -1     -1     6 </u>      

      1     1     -6     0   ← remainder = 0 so x = -1 is a root!

The coefficients of the reduced polynomial are: 1, 1, -6  -->   x² + x - 6

Factor: x² + x - 6

          (x + 3)(x - 2)

Set those factors equal to zero to solve for x:

x + 3 = 0   --> x = -3

x - 2 = 0    --> x = 2

Using Synthetic Division and Factoring the reduced polynomial, we found

x = -1, -3, and 2

Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square. x^2+14x+47=0. What is the form and solution?
Phoenix [80]
To complete a square for ax²+bx+c, you first make a=1.
in this case, a is already 1
move c to the right side: x²+14x=-47
next, add (1/2 of b)² to both sides, in this case, b=14, half of 14 is 7, so x²+14x+ 7²=-47+7²
the left side is now a perfect square: (x+7)²=2
x+7=√2 or x+7=-√2
x=√2-7, or x=-2-√7
