Nathan has a sculpture in the shape of a pyramid. The height of the sculpture is 3 centimeters less than the side length, x, of

its square base. Nathan uses the formula for the volume of a pyramid to determine the dimensions of the sculpture:
Here, a is the side length of the pyramid’s square base and h is its height.

If 162 cubic centimeters of clay were used to make the sculpture, the equation x3 +
x2 +
= 0 can be used to find that the length of the sculpture’s base is
centimeters.

Let
x-----------> <span>the side length of a pyramid square base
h-----------> t</span>he height of the sculpture <span>in the shape of a pyramid

we know that
h=(x-3)
Volume=162 cm</span>³
Volume=x² *(x-3)/3
then
x² *(x-3)/3=162----------> x³-3x²=486----------> x³-3x²-486=0
x³-3x²-486=0-------- <span>this equation can be used to find the length of the sculpture’s base 

using a graph tool-----------> </span>to find the solution
x=9 cm -------------> see the attached figure
h=(x-3)-----> h=9-3--------> h=6 cm

the answer is
<span>the length of the sculpture’s base is 9 cm
</span>the height of the sculpture is 6 cm

Answer:

\frac{1}{2} (a + 2b)(a - b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you require the expression to be factored

Given

\frac{1}{2} a² + \frac{1}{2} ab - b² ← factor out \frac{1}{2} from each term

= \frac{1}{2} (a² + ab - 2b²) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the coefficient of the b² term(- 2) which sum to give the coefficient of the ab- term (+ 1)

The factors are + 2 and - 1, since

2 × - 1 = - 2 and 2 - 1 = + 1, thus

a² + ab - 2b² = (a + 2b)(a - b) and

\frac{1}{2} a² + \frac{1}{2} ab - b² = \frac{1}{2}(a + 2b)(a - b)

PLS HELP!!! BRAINLIEST
Alina [70]

Answer:

Using the visual, 20 blocks, but you still need to change it to match the problem's scale

Step-by-step explanation:

First just try to find a way out and count the blocks. That's what I did. The part I haven't done is scale it. As the starting and end points of the grid are given, but where they fall is not clear, I don't know what the block to number ratio is. Sorry, maybe ask a teacher, they shouldn't take off any points.
