Answer:

A square

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel cross section will be the same shape of the base. Since it's a square base, all parallel cross sections will also be parallel. Think of it as a different floor of a pyramid shaped building.

Answer:

Cross section taken parallel to the base will be SQUARE.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we take a cross section of a pyramid parallel to the square base, means that we are creating a new base for the same structure.

Cross section parallel to the base of a square base will look like a square in shape with smaller dimensions.

So the answer is SQUARE shape.

The slope of the line that contains the points (2, 11) and (0, 5 ) is 3. Which of the following equations represents this line?

taurus [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is your current equation: y= 3x + b. Next, plug in one of your coordinates to the equation. It doesn't matter which one. I'm going to use the second ordered pair, so it should look like this: 5 = 3(0) + b. Multiply 3 and 0 to get 5 = b. So, your equation is y = 3x + 5. The correct answer is C. Hope this helped!
