They are = because both can be reduced to 9/17
Also their cross products are equal   27 x 34 = 18 x 51  - Both equal 918 so both fractions are equal to each other.

Answer:

Yes its true . both sides are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{27}{51} =\frac{18}{34}

Lets simplify each fraction and check

Left hand side fraction has a common factor 3. divide top and bottom by 3

So \frac{27}{51} becomes 9/17

Now the right hand side fraction has a common factor 2. Divide top and bottom by 2

So \frac{18}{34} becomes 9/17

\frac{27}{51} =\frac{18}{34}

After reducing fractions the equation becomes

\frac{9}{17} =\frac{9}{17}

So both are equal

For her presentation on the Wonders of the World, Mary baked a square pyramid-shaped cake as pictured below. The slant height of
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

V=196in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is:

V=\frac{A_{b}h}{3}

where A_{b} is the area of the base and h is the height (the perpendicular measurement between base and highest point, not the slant height)

Since the base is a square, the area is given by:

A_{b}=l^2

where l is the length of the side: l=8in, thus:

A_{b}=(8in)^2\\A_{b}=64in^2

Now we need to find the height, for this we use the right triangle that forms with half of a square side (8in/2 = 4in), the slant height (10in), and the height.

In this right triangle, the slant height is the hypotenuse, the leg 1 is the unknown height, and leg 2 is half of the square side.

Using pythagoras:

hypotenuse^2=leg1^2+leg2^2

substituting our values, and indicating that leg 1 is height h:

(10in)^2=h^2+(4in)^2

100in^2=h^2+16in^2

and solving for the height:

h^2=100in^2-16in^2\\h^2=84in^2\\h=\sqrt{84in^2}\\ h=9.165in

and finally we calculate the volume using this height and the area of the base:

V=\frac{A_{b}h}{3}

V=\frac{(64in^2)(9.165in)}{3} \\V=195.5in^3

rounding to the nearest cubic inch: V=196in^3
