Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The base of the pyramid we need to study is a hexagon.
Let's look at the attached image of an hexagon to understand how we are going to find the area of this figure.
Notice that an hexagon is the combination of 6 exactly equal equilateral triangles in our case of size "2x" (notice that the "radius" of the hexagon is given as "2x")
Therefore the area of the hexagon is going to be 6 times the area of one of those equilateral triangles.
We know the area of a triangle is the product of its base times its height, divided by 2: 
We notice that the triangle's height is exactly what is called the "apothem" of the hexagon (depicted in green in our figure) which measures 
, so replacing this value in the formula above for the area of one of the triangles:
Then we multiply this area times 6 to get the total area of the hexagon (6 of these triangles):
Area of hexagon = 
which is the last option given in the list.
Answer: 1 : 1.48
Step-by-step explanation:
Adam was able to change £400 into 592 francs which means that the British pound is stronger because it was able to buy more Swiss francs.
The exchange rate can be gotten using direct proportion:
400 : 592
1 : x
Cross multiply:
400x = 592
x = 592/400
x = 1.48
Exchange rate is:
= 1 : 1.48
Answer:
Slope: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
find 2 points on the line and do rise/run which would get 3/1 which is 3

Answer:
- slope: cost per mile
- y-intercept: fixed base cost
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. The problem statement tells you that x is the number of miles driven, and y is the rental cost.
When the number of miles driven is zero, the rental cost is ...
y = 2.25×0 +70
y = 70
The cost of renting the truck is $70 when it isn't driven anywhere. The y-intercept ($70) is the basic, fixed cost of truck rental.
__
If x=1 (1 mile driven), then 2.25 is added to the cost of the truck rental. The slope (2.25) is the cost per mile driven. (That mileage cost is added to the basic rental cost.)
