From the diagram you can see that plane cuts each lateral face of hexagonal pyramid and do not cut the base. A hexagonal pyramid has six lateral faces. The intersection of each of these lateral faces with given cutting plane is segment. The figure which consists of these segments is hexagon. This hexagon is not the same as base and even is not similar to the base because the cutting plane is not parallel to the base.

Answer: resulting cross section is a hexagon, correct choice is option 4.

Cutting a hexagonal pyramid by a plane parallel to the base would result to a cross section with a shape of hexagon which would be same with its base. A cross section is a plane that results from cutting an object using a plane.

Let x² + 15x = 49 . What values make an equivalent number sentence after completing the square? Enter your answers in the box

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

15/2 = 7.5 and (7.5)^2 = 56.25 so

x^2 + 15x + 56.25 = 49 + 56.25

x^2 + 15x + 56.25 = 105.25.

Use your knowledge of the process of "Writing an equation given two points" to solve the following problem: A vendor has learned

nydimaria [60]

Answer: Our required linear equation would be $x+48y=148$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of deep fried bananas on a stick = $1.00

Number of sales reached = 100 per day

Cost of deep fried bananas on a stick becomes = $2.00

Number of sales reached = 52 per day.

Let x is the number of dollars each.

Let y be the number of vendors sale.

So, we need to form the linear equation:

As we know the formula for two point slope form:

$y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)\\\\y-1=\dfrac{2-1}{52-100}(x-100)\\\\y-1=\dfrac{1}{-48}(x-100)\\\\-48(y-1)=(x-100)\\\\-48y+48=x-100\\\\-48y=x-100-48\\\\-48y=x-148\\\\x+48y=148$

Hence, our required linear equation would be $x+48y=148$
