mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

$V=196in^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is:

$V=\frac{A_{b}h}{3}$

where $A_{b}$ is the area of the base and $h$ is the height (the perpendicular measurement between base and highest point, not the slant height)

Since the base is a square, the area is given by:

$A_{b}=l^2$

where $l$ is the length of the side: $l=8in$ , thus:

$A_{b}=(8in)^2\\A_{b}=64in^2$

Now we need to find the height, for this we use the right triangle that forms with half of a square side (8in/2 = 4in), the slant height (10in), and the height.

In this right triangle, the slant height is the hypotenuse, the leg 1 is the unknown height, and leg 2 is half of the square side.

Using pythagoras:

$hypotenuse^2=leg1^2+leg2^2$

substituting our values, and indicating that leg 1 is height h:

$(10in)^2=h^2+(4in)^2$

$100in^2=h^2+16in^2$

and solving for the height:

$h^2=100in^2-16in^2\\h^2=84in^2\\h=\sqrt{84in^2}\\ h=9.165in$

and finally we calculate the volume using this height and the area of the base:

$V=\frac{A_{b}h}{3}$

$V=\frac{(64in^2)(9.165in)}{3} \\V=195.5in^3$

rounding to the nearest cubic inch: $V=196in^3$

Work out 114 % of 818.07 kg Give your answer rounded to 2 DP.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

932.60 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a percent of a number, change the percent to a decimal and multiply by the number.

114% of 818.07 kg =

= 114% * 818.07 kg

= 114/100 * 818.07 kg

= 1.14 * 818.07 kg

= 932.60 kg

Help please with algebra problem

Strike441 [17]

Number of weekend minutes used: x
Number of weekday minutes used: y

This month Nick was billed for 643 minutes:
(1) x+y=643

The charge for these minutes was $35.44
Telephone company charges $0.04 per minute for weekend calls (x)
and $0.08 per minute for calls made on weekdays (y)
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44

We have a system of 2 equations and 2 unkowns:
(1) x+y=643
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44

Using the method of substitution
Isolating x from the first equation:
(1) x+y-y=643-y
(3) x=643-y

Replacing x by 643-y in the second equation
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
0.04(643-y)+0.08y=35.44
25.72-0.04y+0.08y=35.44
0.04y+25.72=35.44

Solving for y:
0.04y+25.72-25.72=35.44-25.72
0.04y=9.72

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.04:
0.04y/0.04=9.72/0.04
y=243

Replacing y by 243 in the equation (3)
(3) x=643-y
x=643-243
x=400

Answers:
The number of weekends minutes used was 400
The number of weekdays minutes used was 243
