Answer:

Options C and E

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A. Circle

We can't get a cross section in the form of a circle.

Option B. Cube

We can't get a cross section in the form of a cube.

Option C. Rectangle

When we slice a rectangular pyramid parallel to the base but not through the vertex, we get a Rectangle.

Option D. Square

We can not get a square by slicing a rectangular pyramid.

Option E. Triangle

By slicing a rectangular pyramid perpendicular to the base and passing through the vertex we can get the cross section in the form of triangle.

Options C and E will be the answer.

The number of water stations there are along the 13 1/2 miles long road race according to the task content is; Choice C; 18 water stations.

<h3>What is the number of water stations along the road race?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the number of water stations can be determined as follows;

13 1/2 ÷ 3/4

= 27/2 × 4/3

= 18 water stations.

What is one of the solutions to the following system of equations?

Amanda [17]

Answer:

(8,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $x^{2} +y^{2} =65$

$x+y=7$

To Find: solution of given system of equations.

Solution:

Equation a : $x^{2} +y^{2} =65$

Equation b : $x+y=7$

Substitute the value of y from equation b in equation a

y from equation b : y = 7-x

Now substitute value of y in equation a

Thus equation a becomes:

$x^{2} +(7-x)^{2} =65$

$x^{2} +49+x^{2}-14x =65$

$2x^{2} -14x =65-49$

$x^{2} -7x -8=0$

$x^{2} -8x+x -8=0$

$x(x-8)+1(x-8)=0$

$(x+1)(x-8)=0$

⇒ x= -1 and x = 8

Now substitute values of x in equation b to obtains values of y

⇒ $x+y=7$

for x = -1

⇒ $-1+y=7$

⇒ $y=7+1$

⇒ $y=8$

Thus (x,y)=(-1,8)

For x =8

⇒ $8+y=7$

⇒ $y=7-8$

⇒ $y=-1$

Thus (x,y)=(8,-1)

Hence Option A is the correct solution .

Answer:

I think u have to find the distance.

Each point is given a distinct letter and like wise you have to count the distance between the two points given.

Step-by-step explanation:

Like, 1)distance between A and R when A = -11 and R = -9

their distance is 2 units.

Likewise, 2) RY = 6 units

3) EU = 7 units

4) WD = 5 units

5) EL = 12 units
