Answer:

A square smaller than the base

Explanation:

A square pyramid is a 3 Dimensional image. When you slice a 3 Dimensional image you form is a 2 Dimensional image for example a rectangle, a square, a triangle e.t.c.

The shape of the cross sections formed after slicing a 3 Dimensional image is dependent on the way it was sliced.

This means it can be sliced horizontally or vertically and this would result in different shapes.

If square pyramid is sliced parallel to the base and halfway up the pyramid, the shape of the cross section formed is a square smaller than the base.

180-130=50
180-96=84
angles in a triangle add up to 180
50+84=134
180-134=46

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The equation of line is: $\mathbf{4x-3y=-18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and (-3, 2)?

The equation of line in slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$

where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We need to find slope and y-intercept.

Finding Slope

Slope can be found using formula: $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have $x_1=-6,y_1=-2, x_2=-3, y_2=2$

Putting values and finding slope

$Slope=\frac{2-(-2)}{-3-(-6)}\\Slope=\frac{2+2}{-3+6} \\Slope=\frac{4}{3}$

So, we get slope: $m=\frac{4}{3}$

Finding y-intercept

Using point (-6,-2) and slope $m=\frac{4}{3}$ we can find y-intercept

$y=mx+b\\-2=\frac{4}{3}(-6)+b\\-2=4(-2)+b\\-2=-8+b\\b=-2+8\\b=6$

So, we get y-intercept b= 6

Equation of required line

The equation of required line having slope $m=\frac{4}{3}$ and y-intercept b = 6 is

$y=mx+b\\y=\frac{4}{3}x+6$

Now transforming in fully reduced form:

$y=\frac{4x+6*3}{3} \\y=\frac{4x+18}{3} \\3y=4x+18\\4x-3y=-18$

So, the equation of line is: $\mathbf{4x-3y=-18}$

The length of the terrarium is 14.5 inches and the width is 7 inches. what is the height of the terrarium?

mote1985 [20]

The height is: 7.5 inches. Since the terrarium is 14.5 inches in total, and the width is 7 inches, the remaining inches makes up the height and that is 7.5.
