Answer:

The new pyramid has a volume that is 8 times the volume of the original pyramid

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor and the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

z ----> the scale factor

V_1 -----> volume of the original pyramid

V_2 -----> volume of the new pyramid

z^{3}=\frac{V_2}{V_1}

In this problem we have that each of the dimensions of the original pyramid are doubled

so

z=2

so

substitute

2^{3}=\frac{V_2}{V_1}

8=\frac{V_2}{V_1}

V_2=8V_1

therefore

The volume of the new pyramid is 8 times the volume of the original pyramid

According to an NRF survey conducted by BIGresearch, the average family spends about $237 on electronics (computers, cell phones
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

7.64% probability that they spend less than $160 on back-to-college electronics

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 237, \sigma = 54

Probability that they spend less than $160 on back-to-college electronics

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 160. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{160 - 237}{54}

Z = -1.43

Z = -1.43 has a pvalue of 0.0763

7.64% probability that they spend less than $160 on back-to-college electronics

Aladdin had two envelopes to start. He bought three packs of
Stells [14]
Since it starts with 2 envelopes, subtract 2 from 17 to get how many and in all 3 packs.
17 - 2 = 15
Now, we divide that number by 3 to get how many are in each envelope.
15 / 3 = 5
There are 5 envelopes in each pack.

Determine the value of X for the drawing below. ​
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer: x = 1

Step-by-step explanation: In short, 0 is the only number such that for any number x, x + 0 = x. ... Well, it's the only number which can be multiplied by any other number without changing that other number. In short, the multiplicative identity is the number 1, because for any other number x, 1*x = x.
