Answer: y=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since DF is bisected, it means but in half. This means DU and UF are equal in length. We can set them equal to each other to find y.
2y=16 [divide both sides by 2]
y=8
The Volume of PYRAMID A is 8 times greater than the Volume of PYRAMID B as obtained by taking the ratio of the volume of both pyramids.
Volume of a square based pyramid is given as :

Where; h = height ; a = base edge
Hence, Volume of PYRAMID A :

Volume of PYRAMID B = 3,136 in³
Divide Volume of pyramid B by pyramid A :

= 8 times
Expressing as a percentage, multiply by 100% ;
8 * 100% = 800%
Therefore, The volume of PYRAMID B is 800% times GREATER THAN that of PYRAMID A.

Answer:
12.0 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem applies:
(12 cm)² +b² = (17 cm)²
b² = (289 -144) cm² = 145 cm²
b = √145 cm ≈ 12.04 cm
b ≈ 12.0 cm . . . . rounded to 1 decimal place
