Answer:

32 cubic meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume for any pyramid is given by following expression

volume of pyramid = 1/3( area of base of pyramid * height of pyramid)

________________________________

In the problem

base area of pyramid = 24 sq. m

height = 4 m

Therefore substituting the above given value in formula for volume of pyramid we have

volume of pyramid = 1/3( 24 sq. m * 4 m) = 8 sq. m * 4 m (since 24/3 = 8)

volume of pyramid = 32 cubic meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation;

$\frac{a}{b} - \frac{b}{2} = 10\\a - b = 29$

From 2;

a = 29 + b ....3

Substitute 3 into 1;

$\frac{29+b}{b} - \frac{b}{2} = 10\\\frac{2(29+b)-b^2}{2b} = 10\\\frac{58+2b-b^2}{2b} = 10\\58+2b-b^2 = 20b\\b^2-2b-58 = -20b\\b^2-2b+20b -58 = 0\\b^2+18b-58 = 0\\$

Factorize

b = -18±√18²-4(-58)/2

b = -18±√324+232/2

b = -18±√556/2

b = -18±23.58/2

b = -18-23.58/2 and -18+23.58/2

b = -41.58/2 and 5.58/2

b = -20.79 and 2.79

Since a = 29 + b

when b = -20.79

a = 29 - 20.79

a = 8.21

<em>Hence the solution to the system of equation is (8.21, -20.79)</em>
