Answer:

\text{Surface area } = 265.14\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A liquid vessel in the form of an inverted regular hexagonal pyramid.

Altitude of pyramid, h = 25 feet

Base edge of pyramid, a = 10 feet

\text{Volume of Pyramid}=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}a^2h

A liquid vessel contain maximum volume =\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cdot 10^2\cdot 25=2165\ ft^3

Change cubic foot to liter

1\ ft^3 = 28.32\ liter

2165\ ft^3 = 61307.67\ liters

A vessel fill 6,779 liters of water.

6779 lt = 239.398 ft³

Therefore, 239.398=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cdot 10^2h

h=2.764\ ft

Surface area rise, a = 10 ft , h = 2.764 ft

\text{Surface area } = 3a\sqrt{h^2+\dfrac{3a^2}{4}}

\text{Surface area } = 3\cdot 10\sqrt{1.764^2+\dfrac{3\cdot 10^2}{4}}

\text{Surface area } = 265.14\ ft^2

Hence, The surface rise when 6,779 liters of water is added to vessel will be 265.14 ft^2

<span>Since: v =sqrt(3)/2 s^2h 

6779 liters x 0.0353cu ft/1 liter= 239.299 cu ft 
but by proportion s/h = 10/25 
s = 10/25 h 
and v = sqrt(3)/2 (10/25 h)^2 h 
239.299 = 0.139 h^3 

h = (239.299/0.139)^(1/3) = 11.985 ft</span>

A student bought 34 pencils for school.if he sharpened 16 of the pencils before school whats is his ratio of unsharpened pencils
Sergio [31]


he bought 34 pencils which I suppose aren't already sharpened

so if he sharpens 16 of them just subtract 16 from 34 (34-16) which equals 18

so the ratio would be 16:18

but if u need to simplify it would be 8:9
