Answer:  Option 'A' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Lateral surface area of smaller pyramid = 20 ft²

Lateral surface area of larger pyramid = 45 ft²

volume of smaller pyramid  = 8 ft³

We need to find the volume of larger pyramid.

\dfrac{\text{Lateral area of smaller pyramid}}{\text{Lateral area of larger pyramid}}=\dfrac{20}{45}=\dfrac{4}{9}\\\\\dfrac{4}{9}=\dfrac{2^2}{3^3}\\\\\dfrac{\text{side of smaller pyramid}}{\text{Side of larger pyramid}}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\So,\\\\\dfrac{\text{Volume of smaller pyramid}}{\text{Volume of larger pyramid}}=\dfrac{2^3}{3^3}=\dfrac{8}{27}

Hence, Volume of larger pyramid is 27 ft³.

Therefore, Option 'A' is correct.

Let the ratio between 2 of them be a/b. The volume of the larger one is x (ft^3) 
<span>(a/b)^2 = 20/45 = 4/9 ---> a/b = 2/3 </span>
<span>(a/b)^3 = 8/x </span>
<span>8/x = (2/3)^3 = 8/27 ---> x = 27 (ft^3) </span>

Determine if the lim f(x) exists using the graph below.. If it does, find its value. If it does not,x 1explain why
Leno4ka [110]

The limit of a function f at a point a exists if:

\lim_{x\to a^-}f(x)=\lim_{x\to a^+}f(x)\begin{gathered} \text{ From the given image, the value of the left limit of f at x=1 } \\ \lim_{x\to a^-}f(x)\lt1 \end{gathered}

Also,

\begin{gathered} \text{ From the given image, the value of the right limit of f at x=1 } \\ \lim_{x\to a^+}f(x)\gt1 \end{gathered}

Therefore,

\lim_{x\to1^-}f(x)\lim_{x\to1^+}f(x)

Hence, the limit does not exist

ra1l [238]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

2 = x - 8

Add 8 to each side

2+8 = x-8+8

10 = x

x=4 is not a solution

Circle O is inscribed in ABC. What is the perimeter of ABC
xenn [34]

Since O is inscribed in triangle ABC, you know that AB, AC, and BC are all tangent to the circle. The tangent segments theorem asserts that AD is congruent to A F; BD is congruent to BE; and CF is congruent to CE. (NOTE: E is the point where the circle touches BC - I've taken the liberty of labeling it as such.)

Then the perimeter P of triangle ABC will be twice the sum of the labeled edges:

P=2(12\,\mathrm{cm}+16\,\mathrm{cm}+6\,\mathrm{cm})=72\,\mathrm{cm}
