Answer:

\frac{3}{2} g/cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the volume of the prism. The volume of a square pyramid is V = Bh/3

B = 100 cm²

h = 6 cm

V = 100 cm² * 6 cm /3

V = 600 cm³ /3

V = 200 cm³

Next, we need to solve for the density based on the desired volume and mass.

m = mass = 300 g

V = volume

density = m/V

density = 300 g / 200 cm³

density = 3/2 g/cm³

The lowest possible density of the material to make the paperweight would be \frac{3}{2} g/cm²

I’m confused on this one

The answer is 42.

The question is asking for angle N. We know from the question that angle N is equal to angle E (Don't think about the scale factor because it only applies to the sides. They're just trying to trick you).

To find angle E:
79 + 6x + 11  + 7x - 14 = 180
Move numbers to the right side:
6x + 7x = 180 - 79 - 11 + 14
Combine like terms:
13x = 104
Divide both sides by 13:
x = 8
The formula for angle E:
7x - 14
Plug in the 8:
7 \times 8 - 14 = 56 - 14 = 42
The angle measure of E is 42. So angle N is automatically 42 too.

To solidify, we can try to use the formula which they give us for angle N:
3x + 18 = 24 + 18 = 42

Zeros do not count as a sigfig so when you do something like this problem just include the numbers until you hit your significant figure limit and then substitute zeros where you can. 20000
