Answer: 14
Step-by-step explanation:
12^2+8^2=208 square root is 14
a)
Check the picture below.
b)
volume wise, we know the smaller pyramid is 1/8 th of the whole pyramid, so the volume of the whole pyramid must be 8/8 th.
Now, if we take off 1/8 th of the volume of whole pyramid, what the whole pyramid is left with is 7/8 th of its total volume, and that 7/8 th is the truncated part, because the 1/8 we chopped off from it, is the volume of the tiny pyramid atop.
Now, what's the ratio of the tiny pyramid to the truncated bottom?

2*(x-5) = -33, so x-5 = -16.5, so x = -11.5
This is assuming that "the difference between a and b" is a-b, which seems to be the accepted interpretation.
Answer:
(d) f(x) = -x²
Step-by-step explanation:
For the vertex of the quadratic function to be at the origin, both the x-term and the constant must be zero. That is, the function must be of the form ...
f(x) = a(x -h)² +k . . . . . . . . . . vertex form; vertex at (h, k)
f(x) = a(x -0)² +0 = ax² . . . . . vertex at the origin, (h, k) = (0, 0)
Of the offered answer choices, the only one with a vertex at the origin is ...
f(x) = -x² . . . . . a=-1
