Answer: The scale factor is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the pyramids are similar. The volume of one of these pyramids is 13,824 cubic feet and the volume of the other one is 216 cubic feet. Then:

By Similar solids theorem, if two similar solids have a scale factor of
, then corresponding volumes have a ratio of 
Then:

Knowing this, we can find the scale factor. This is:
![\frac{13,824}{216}=\frac{a^3}{b^3}\\\\\frac{13,824}{216}=(\frac{a}{b})^3\\\\\frac{a}{b}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{13,824}{216}}\\\\scale\ factor=\frac{a}{b}=4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Ba%5E3%7D%7Bb%5E3%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%3D%28%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%29%5E3%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cscale%5C%20factor%3D%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%3D4)
Answer:
x = 47°
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an exterior angle property, one of the properties in a triangle. The exterior angle theorem states that if a triangle's side gets an extension, then the resultant exterior angle would be equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles of the triangle.
Answer:
8th term is 179.15904
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence is geometric with a common ration = 6/5
r = 60/50 = 72/60 = 6/5
Use the formula

In your case a = 50, r = 6/5 and n = 8

Answer:
- a) $56000
- b) DA = 2, GA = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
- DA = A + B ⇒ $3000
- GA = A + 2B ⇒ $5000
- Number of A = 12
- Number of B = 22
<u>We can see from the equations that</u>
- GA - DA = B ⇒ $2000 and
- A = $1000 and B = $2000 in terms of profit
<u>So greater use of unit B brings greater profit. We don't want any unit is left over, so get this equation.</u>
Is the equation set to indicate use of the units A and B
<u>Solving we get </u>
<u>It this case all the units are used and profit is maximum</u>
- 2*$3000 + 10*$5000 = $56000
- Number of DA = 2
- Number of GA = 10
