a)
Check the picture below.
b)
volume wise, we know the smaller pyramid is 1/8 th of the whole pyramid, so the volume of the whole pyramid must be 8/8 th.
Now, if we take off 1/8 th of the volume of whole pyramid, what the whole pyramid is left with is 7/8 th of its total volume, and that 7/8 th is the truncated part, because the 1/8 we chopped off from it, is the volume of the tiny pyramid atop.
Now, what's the ratio of the tiny pyramid to the truncated bottom?

So the numerator of your fraction (the top number) is the amount that was cut. The denominator (the bottom number) is the total amount of rope. So, your fraction would be 2/12. You can still simplify that by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2 and end up with 1/6. Does that make sense? If you need any more help, go ahead and message me :)
Answer:
x=64
y=54
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+4y=24 4(24-4y\3)+3y=22
x=24-4y/3 96-12y\3+3y=22
x=24-4(54)/3
x=-64 96/3-22=3y/3
y=54
<u>Answer:</u>
The Ranking Percentile is (B) 97.5%
<u>Explanation
:</u>
To find the percentile rank we need to find the z- score. After finding the z-score match this value with the corresponding value in z-score table.
Formula to find the z-score
Z-score=
Substituting the values in the above equation, we find
Z-score=
=2
So, the Z-score is +2
Now, the corresponding value of Z-score 2 in the table is 0.9772
or the percentile score is 97.72 ~ 97.5
