$\bf \textit{volume of a pyramid}\\\\
V=\cfrac{1}{3}Bh\qquad 
\begin{cases}
B=\textit{area of its base}\\
h=height\\
----------\\
B=\frac{1}{4}B\\\\
h=\frac{1}{4}h
\end{cases}\implies V=\cfrac{1}{3}\cdot \cfrac{B}{4}\cdot \cfrac{h}{4}
\\\\\\
V=\cfrac{1}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{4\cdot 4}Bh\implies V=\cfrac{1}{16}\left( \cfrac{1}{3}Bh \right)$

so, you'd end up with a pyramid with a volume "one sixteenth" of the original then

now, the original had a volume of 1536, the quarterized version will then just be one sixteenth of that, or 1536 * 1/36

In the expansion (ax+by)^7, the coefficients of the first two terms are 128 and -224, respectively. Find the values of a and b

madam [21]

Answer:

a = 2, b = 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding $(ax+by)^7$ using Binomial expansion, we have that:

$(ax+by)^7$ =

$(ax)^7(by)^0 + (ax)^6(by)^1 + (ax)^5(by)^2 + (ax)^4(by)^3 + (ax)^3(by)^4 + (ax)^2(by)^5 + (ax)^1(by)^6 + (ax)^0(by)^7$

$= (a)^7(x)^7+ (a)^6(x)^6(b)(y) + (a)^5(x)^5(b)^2(y)^2 + (a)^4(x)^4(b)^3(y)^3 + (a)^3(x)^3(b)^4(y)^4 + (a)^2(x)^2(b)^5(y)^5 + (a)(x)(b)^6(y)^6 + (b)^7(y)^7\\\\\\= (a)^7(x)^7+ (a)^6(b)(x)^6(y) + (a)^5(b)^2(x)^5(y)^2 + (a)^4(b)^3(x)^4(y)^3 + (a)^3(b)^4(x)^3(y)^4 + (a)^2(b)^5(x)^2(y)^5 + (a)(b)^6(x)(y)^6 + (b)^7(y)^7$
