Answer:

The slant height of the pyramid is 3√2 ft, or to the nearest tenth ft,

4.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the volume of a pyramid of base area B and height h is

V = (1/3)·B·h.  Here, V = 432 ft³, B = (12 ft)² and h (height of the pyramid) is unknown.  First we find the height of this pyramid, and then the slant height.

V = 432 ft³ = (144 ft²)·h, so h = (432 ft³) / (144 ft²) = 3 ft.

Now to find the slant height of this pyramid:  That height is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose base length is half of 12 ft, that is, the base length is 6 ft, and the height is 3 ft (as found above).

Then hyp² = (3 ft)(6 ft) = 18 ft², and the hyp (which is also the desired slant height) is hyp = √18, or √9√2, or 3√2 ft.

The slant height of the pyramid is 3√2 ft, or to the nearest tenth ft,

4.2 ft

By applying algebraic handling on the two equations, we find the following three <em>solution</em> pairs: x₁ ≈ 5.693 ,y₁ ≈ 10.693; x₂ ≈ 1.430, y₂ ≈ 6.430; x₃ ≈ - 0.737, y₃ ≈ 4.263.

<h3>How to solve a system of equations</h3>

In this question we have a system formed by a <em>linear</em> equation and a <em>non-linear</em> equation, both with no <em>trascendent</em> elements and whose solution can be found easily by algebraic handling:

x - y = 5      (1)

x² · y = 5 · x + 6       (2)

By (1):

y = x + 5

By substituting on (2):

x² · (x + 5) = 5 · x + 6

x³ + 5 · x² - 5 · x - 6 = 0

(x + 5.693) · (x - 1.430) · (x + 0.737) = 0

There are three solutions: x₁ ≈ 5.693, x₂ ≈ 1.430, x₃ ≈ - 0.737

And the y-values are found by evaluating on (1):

y = x + 5

x₁ ≈ 5.693

y₁ ≈ 10.693

x₂ ≈ 1.430

y₂ ≈ 6.430

x₃ ≈ - 0.737

y₃ ≈ 4.263

By applying algebraic handling on the two equations, we find the following three <em>solution</em> pairs: x₁ ≈ 5.693 ,y₁ ≈ 10.693; x₂ ≈ 1.430, y₂ ≈ 6.430; x₃ ≈ - 0.737, y₃ ≈ 4.263.
