Answer:

213.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is 1/3 base times height.

Using this formula, our square base is 8*8, or 64 square units.

Multiplying that by the height, 10. We get 64*10, 640.

Finally dividing by 3, we have 213.3333333333...

Rounding that to the nearest tenth, 213.3.

the initial vertical velocity of a rocket shot straight up is 42 meters per second. How long does it take for the rocket to retu

Snowcat [4.5K]

It takes 4.3 seconds for the rocket to return to earth.

The equation is:
$0=-9.8t^2+v_0t+h_0$
where -9.8m/sec² is the acceleration due to gravity, v₀ is the initial velocity, and h₀ is the initial height. We will go from the assumption that the rocket is launched from the ground, so h₀=0, and we are told that the initial velocity, v₀, is 42. This gives us:

$0=-9.8t^2+42t$

We will use the quadratic formula to solve this. The quadratic formula is:
$x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Plugging in our information we have:
$t=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{42^2-4(-9.8)(0)}}{2(-9.8)}
\\
\\=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{1764-0}}{-19.6}
\\
\\=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{1764}}{-19.6}
\\
\\=\frac{-42\pm 42}{-19.6}=\frac{-42-42}{-19.6} \text{ or } \frac{-42+42}{-19.6}
\\
\\=\frac{-84}{-19.6}\text{ or }\frac{0}{-19.6}
\\
\\=4.3\text{ or }0$

x=0 is when the rocket is launched; x=4.3 is when the rocket lands.

A student has a savings account earning 3% simple interest. She must pay $1200 for first-semester tuition by September 1 and $12

Bingel [31]

Using simple interest, it is found that she needs to earn $2,391.07 during the summer.

<h3>Simple Interest</h3>

Simple interest is used when there is a single compounding per time period.

The amount of money after t years in is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + rt)

In which:

A(0) is the initial amount.

r is the interest rate, as a decimal.

For this problem, the objective is to have <u>$1200 in 3 months = 0.25 years</u>, hence the parameters are given as follows:

A(0.25) = 1200, t = 0.25, r = 0.03.

Hence we have to solve for A(0):

A(0)(1 + 0.03 x 0.25) = 1200

A(0) = 1200/(1 + 0.03 x 0.25)

A(0) = $1,191.07.

She also needs to earn $1,200 to pay the first-semester bill on time, hence:

1200 + 1191.07 = $2,391.07.

She needs to earn $2,391.07 during the summer.

Clare earned a total of $12 for 2 hours of yard work. How many hours in all will it take Clare

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

$12 = 2hours

Find how much Clare was paid for one hour

Total money earned ÷ number of hours = wage per hour

12 ÷ 2 = $6 per hour

set up equation

6x = 18

This equation says 6 dollars an hour × number of hours = $18

To solve for this equation, divide both sides by 6 (this isolates the variable)

6x ÷ 6 = 18 ÷ 6

1x = 3

x = 3

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the perimeter of the base is 7.3\text{ ft}7.3 ft and the height of the py

Cloud [144]

Answer:

$V=6.66\ ft^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the square base of a pyramid = 7.3 ft

The height of the pyramid, h = 6ft

The perimeter of a square is given by :

P = 4s, s is the side of square

7.3 = 4s

s = 1.825 ft

The volume of a pyramid is given by :

$V=\dfrac{lbh}{3}$

Here, l = b = 1.825 ft

So,

$V=\dfrac{1.825\times 1.825\times 6}{3}\\\\V=6.66\ ft^3$

So, the volume of the pyramid is equal to $6.66\ ft^3$ .
