Volume of the pyramid = (1/3) x Area of the base x Height ---------- (1)

As the base length = 5 feet

So Area of the base = 5 x 5 = 25 square feet

While volume of the pyramid = 75 cubic feet

Putting values in equation (1);

75 = (1/3) x 25 x Height

Height = (75 x 3) / 25

Height = 9feet

<span>So 2nd option is correct.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that

$X_i = \left \{ {{1, If , Ith, room, has,exactly, 1,man, and , 1,woman } \atop {0, othewise} \right.$

hence,

$x = x_1 + x_2+....+x_m$

now,

$E(x) = E(x_1+x_2+---+x_m)\\\\E(x)=E(x_1)+E(x_2)+---+E(x_m)$

attached below is the complete solution

Use the formula y=mx+b when trying to do things like this.
Y intercept form is when your line intersects through the y axis, and this is also your b. M is your slope.

For this case we have two televisions, one generic version and one brand. We know that the generic version represents $\frac {2} {3}$ the size of the brand. We must define two variables that represent the dimensions of the brand TV, so we have:
