Answer:

The answer to your question is 23.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length square pyramid = 10 ft

width of a cube = 6 ft

height of the pyramid = ?

The surface area is equal in both figures.

Formula

Surface area of a cube = 6a²

Surface area of a square pyramid = ab + al = l x l + (l x h) /2

Process

1.- Calculate the surface area of the cube

           Ac = 6(6)² = 6(36)

                            = 216 ft²

2.- Substitute data in the square pyramid formula

           Ap = (10 x 10) + (10h)/2

3.- Equal both areas

               216 = 100 + 5h

- Solve for h

               216 - 100 = 5h

                         116 = 5h

                          h = 116 / 5

- Result

                          h = 23.2 ft

Match each whole number with a rational, exponential expression. 1. 512 2. 8 3. 343 4. 216 5. 729 6.
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

1. 2^9 = 512

2. 2^3 = 8

3. 7^3 = 343

4. 6^3 = 216

5. 3^6 = 729

Step-by-step explanation:

To start we have to express the number as a multiplication of prime numbers, from there we can take the expression as a power

1.

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 512

2^9 = 512

2.

2 x 2 x 2 = 8

2^3 = 8

3.

7 x 7 x 7 = 343

7^3 = 343

4.

6 x 6 x 6 = 216

6^3 = 216

5.

3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 729

3^6 = 729

(a+b)2 ;a=1/2 and b=2
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

\frac{25}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b = \frac{1}{2} + 2 = 2 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}, thus

(a + b)² = (\frac{5}{2} )² = \frac{5}{2} × \frac{5}{2} = \frac{5(5)}{2(2)} = \frac{25}{4}
