Answer: 320ft^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the pyramid is just a normal rectangular pyramid and isn't made of stairs...
10x8x12/3 = 320 ft^3
Since B is perpendicular to A. We can say that the gradient of B will be -1/7 (product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines has to be -1).
Now we know that the equation for B is y=-(1/7)x + c with c being the y intercept.
Since the point isnt specified in the question, we could leave the equation like this.
But if there is a given point that B passes through, just plug in the x and y values into their respective places and solve to find c. That should give you the equation for b.
Now, to find the solution of x, we have 2 equations:
1) y=7x+12
2)y=-(1/7)x+c
In this simultaneous equation we see that y is equal to both the expressions. So,
7x+12=-(1/7)x+c
Now, since the value of c is not found, we cannot actually find the value of x, but if we would find c, we could also find x since it would only be a matter of rearranging the equation.
And there you go, that is your solution :)
10.79/1200=.009
.009*1200=10.79 this is a double check to make sure our price per square foot is correct.
.009*4000=$36.00
It will cost $36.00 to seed the 4,000 square feet at that price.
So you subtract their integers by starting from the bottom then coming up to the top. And you just put the numbers in your calculator. Once you’ve got your answer for X and Y, you multiply them both. Which will give you -9/3. Next you divide -9 by 3 and 3 divided by 3. Which will give you -3/1 and just rewrite it as -3. I don’t know if this helps but I hope it does :).
