Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 x + x = 20
2/3 x + 3/3x = 20
5/3 x = 20 ... times 3/5 both sides
x = 12
check: 2/3 x 12 + 12 = 8 + 12 = 20
2 even numbers....x and x + 2
x + x + 2 = 234
2x + 2 = 234
2x = 234 - 2
2x = 232
x = 232/2
x = 116 <===
x + 2 = 116 + 2 = 118 <==
It is not correct.

Formula to find the volume of the pyramid = 1/3 base area x height
volume = 1/3 x 92 x 54 = 1656 square meters
