Answer:

The dimension of the base of the Rectangle Pyramid is Length = 10 and Width = 8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rectangle Pyramid

Base Length = 3x + 1

Base Width = x

Height = 12

Volume = 96

Required

Dimension of the base of the pyramid

Given that the volume of the pyramid is ⅓ of the base area * the height.

This is represented mathematical as

Volume = ⅓ * base area * height.

Where

Base area = width * length

Base area = (3x + 1) * x

Base area = 3x² + x.

So,

Volume becomes

Volume = ⅓ * (3x² + x) * 12.

Volume = (3x² + x) * 4

Substitute 96 for volume

96 = (3x² + x) * 4

Divide both sides by 4

96/4 = (3x² + x) * 4/4

24 = 3x² + x

Subtract 24 fr both sides

24 - 24 = 3x² + x - 24

0 = 3x² + x - 24

3x² + x - 24 = 0

Expand

3x² + 9x - 8x - 24 = 0

Factorize

3x(x + 3) - 8(x + 3) = 0

(3x - 8)(x + 3) = 0

3x - 8 = 0 or x + 3 = 0

3x = 8 or x = -3

x = 8/3 or x = -3

Recall that

Length = 3x + 1

Width = x

For any of the above expression, x can't be less than 0; so, x = -3 can't be considered.

Substitute x = 8/3

Length = 3x + 1

Length = 3(8/3) + 1

Length = 8 + 1

Length = 9

Width = x

Width = 8/3

Hence, the dimension of the base of the Rectangle Pyramid is Length = 10 and Width = 8/3

Answer: -1 1/3

She asked me where I was from

I said "Somewhere you never been to"

Little town outside of Knoxville

Hidden by some dogwood trees

She tried talkin' with my accent

We held hands and waded into

That blue water

She left her flip-flops by my Red Wings on the beach

[Chorus]

Yeah but, now I'm dodging potholes in my sunburnt Silverado

Like a heart-broke Desperado, headin' right back to my roots

Somethin' 'bout the way she kissed mе tells me she'd lovе Eastern Tennessee

Yeah, but all I brought back with me was some sand in my boots

[Verse 2]

I said "Let's go shoot tequila"

So we walked back to that beach bar

She said "Don't cowboys drink whiskey?" (huh)

So we drank bottom shelf

She said ", that sky looks perfect"

I said "Girl, you've never seen stars like the ones back home"

And she said "Maybe I should, see 'em for myself"

[Chorus]

Yeah, but now I'm dodging potholes in my sunburnt Silverado

Like a heart-broke Desperado, headin' right back to my roots

Somethin' 'bout the way she kissed me tells me she'd love Eastern Tennessee

Yeah, but all I brought back with me was some sand in my boots

[Bridge]

I said meet me in the mornin'

And she told me I was crazy

Yeah, but I still thought that maybe she'd show up

[Chorus]

Oh, but now I'm dodging potholes in my sunburnt Silverado

Like a heart-broke Desperado, headin' right back to my roots

Somethin' 'bout the way she kissed me tells me she'd love Eastern Tennessee

Yeah, but all I brought back with me was some sand in my boots

Yeah, but all I brought back with me was some sand in my boots
