Answer:
- 11040 m³
- k ≈ 0.33
- V = (1/3)Bh
Step-by-step explanation:
The given relation is ...
V = kBh . . . . . for some base area B, height h, and constant of variation k
We are given length and width of the base so we presume it is a rectangle.
B = l·w = 8·11 = 88 . . . . square meters
The given volume tells us the value of k:
1144 = k(88)(39) . . . . . . cubic meters
1144/3432 = k = 1/3 ≈ 0.33
The value of k is about 0.33.
__
Then the volume of the larger pyramid is ...
V = (1/3)(15 m)(46 m)(48 m) = 11,040 m³
The general relationship is ...
V = 1/3Bh
