The formula of the volume of a pyramid is 1/3BH, where B represents the area of the base of the pyramid and H represents the hei

ght of the pyramid. The volume of pyramid A is 3 times the volume of pyramid B. Is the area of the base of Pyramid A greater, equal, or less that the area of the base of Pyramid B?

Answer:

It depends on the relation between the heights  of both pyramids

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the volume of a pyramid of base b and height h is

V=\frac{1}{3}bh

If the volume of the pyramid A is 3 times the volume of the pyramid B, then

\frac{1}{3}b_ah_a=3*\frac{1}{3}b_bh_b=b_bh_b

Which means

b_ah_a=3*b_bh_b

If we knew both heights are the same, we could conclude that

b_a=3*b_b

In which case the base of the pyramid A would be greater than the other base

But if, for example, the height of the pyramid A is 3 times the height of the other height, then

3*b_a=3*b_b=>b_a=b_b

Both bases would be the same.

If we choose that  

h_a >3*h_b

it would mean

b_a

In which case the base of the pyramid A would be less than the other base

So the answer entirely depends on the relation between the heights of both pyramids

What is the reason for each step in the solution of the inequality?
Citrus2011 [14]

step 1: Given

step 2: Distributive Property

step 3: Combine Like terms

step 4: Subtraction Property of Order

step 5: Addition property of order

step 6: Division property of order

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the inequality: -38-3(x+5)>6x-17

We need to match each step with the reasons.

The given steps are:

1.

−38−3(x+5)>6x−17

So, Reason for step 1: Given

2.

−38−3x−15>6x−17

So, Reason for step 2: Distributive Property

3.

−3x−53>6x−17

So, Reason for step 3: Combine Like terms

4.

−9x−53>−17

So, Reason for step 4: Subtraction Property of Order

5.

−9x>36

So, Reason for step 5: Addition property of order

6.

x<−4

So, Reason for step 6: Division property of order

What is the next value 4d 7g 10j 13
bearhunter [10]
13m 16p

Add three to every number next as well as move up three letters.

For example:
1A is the starting point.
To get from 1A to 4D you add three.

1 + 3 = 4
A to get to D is three letters up.
A b c D

Same thing for 4D to get to 7G.

4 +3 = 7
D to get to G
D e f G

Your answer:
I'm not sure if you wanted me to find the letter of the equation or the actual next part. On your question you have just 13 up there, no letter so if youre trying to find the letter (13m) is your answer.

If you're trying to find the next equation to the puzzle (16p) is your answer.

Hope this helped!:)

If b=4 and c=2, what is 2b-3c?
Paraphin [41]
First, fill in the variables with the numbers given so that
2b-3c
will then become
2(4)-3(2)
next, you refer to the order of operations to simplify the problem down, the multiplication being the first doable operations in this problem.
8-6
and next operation being subtraction.
2
is the final answer
