This question is just a question targeted towards puzzling the solver. It is infact a very easy problem. In the given question the information's provided should be very minutely watched. First information says that there is an unknown number. The problem revolves around this unknown number and various information's show that this number is always connected with the majority information's provided.
Let us assume the unknown number = x
Then
2x -4 = x - 10
2x - x = - 10 + 4
x = - 6
So the unknown number is -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The Volume of a Square Pyramid</u>

Given a square-based pyramid of base side a and height h, the volume can be calculated with the formula:

$\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}a^2h$

We are given a square pyramid with a base side a=14 ft but we're missing the height. It can be calculated by using the right triangle shown in the image attached below, whose hypotenuse is 25 ft and one leg is 7 ft

We use Pythagora's theorem:

$25^2=h^2+7^2$

Solving for h:

$h^2=25^2-7^2=625-49=576$

$h=\sqrt{576}=24$

The height is h=24 ft. Now the volume is calculated:

$\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}*14^2*24$

V = 1,568

Which expression is equivalent to 10a + 6?

victus00 [196]

There are a number of expressions that are equivalent to 10a+6.
To find them, you simply have to list the multiples of both 10 and 6.
10- 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100
6- 6 12 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 60.
Then, when you multiply the fraction by anything, whether this is 2, 3 or 10, you just have to do this to both parts.
All of the following expressions are equivalent to 10a+6
20a+12, 30a+18, 40a+24, 50a+30, 60a+36, 70a+42, 80a+48, 90a+54, 100a+60

Or, if you're looking to simplfy, then you have to find a common multiple, which is 2. Therefore, 2 goes outside of the bracket, and you then have to divide 10 by 2 to find out what goes inside the brack. 10a/2= 5a. 6/2=3, therefore, in a bracket, it becomes 2(5a+3)

Hope this helps :)
