Answer:

y = -7/3x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the slope of the perpendicular line

Do this by taking the negative inverse of the first line

m = -7/3

Step 2: Find b

y = mx + b

y = -7/3x + b

3 = -7/3(3) + b

3 = -7 + b

b = 10

Two pyramids are similar with a ratio of surface areas of 25:36. Find the volume of the larger pyramid given that the first has

ki77a [65]

Answer:

432m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the volume of the larger pyramid is shown below:

Let us assume the volume of the larger pyramid be x

Given that

The ratio of two pyramids is 25:36

We can say that

The Ratio of side = (The ratio of surface area)^ $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{5}{6}$

Now

ratio of volume = (ratio of side)^3 = $\frac{5^{3}}{6^{3}}$ = 125 : 216

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows

$\frac{125}{216} = \frac{250}{x}$

So,

$x = \frac{250 \times 216}{125}$

= 432m^3

Are the fractions 1/5 , 5/5 , and 5/1 equivalent?Explain.

NeX [460]

Answer:
They are not equal

Explanation:
Let's take a look at each one of them separately:
 $\frac{1}{5}$ : This fraction is in the simplest form. It is equivalent to 0.2
The fraction is formed by dividing one part over five

 $\frac{5}{5}$ : This fraction is not in the simplest form. We can divide 5 by 5 and the answer would be 1. Therefore, $\frac{5}{5}$ is equivalent to 1

 $\frac{5}{1}$ : This fraction is not in the simplest form. We can divide 5 by 1 and the answer would be 5. Therefore, $\frac{5}{1}$ is equivalent to 5.

Based on the above, we can cnfirm that 0.2 , 1 and 5 are not equivalent.
Therefore, the given fractions are not equivalent

Hope this helps :)
