Answer:

(a) = 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the surface area of a regular pyramid is B + (1/2*P*l), with B being the area of the base, p being the perimeter of the base, and l being the slant of the pyramid.

The area of a pentagon can be solved using the formula 1/2*a*p, with a being the apothem and p being the perimeter of the pentagon.

  1. B + (1/2*80*15) = 1040
  2. B + 600 = 1040
  3. 1040 - 600 = 440 (440 is the area of pentagon)
  4. 1/2*a*(16*5) = 440
  5. 40*a = 440
  6. 440/40 = 11

The apothem is 11 cm. Hope this helps!

In 2009 there was an endangered population of 270 cranes in a western state. Due to wildlife efforts, the population is increasi
Vitek1552 [10]
Assuming compount interest format

A=P(r+1)^t for compounded per 1 year
A=future amount
P=present amount
r=rate in decimal
t=time in years


given
P=270
r=5%=0.05

the equaton is
A=270(0.05+1)^t or
A=270(1.05)^t
for any year, 2009, is year 0, so if you wanted to input the year then
A=270(1.05)^{t-2009} would be for t=what year it was

A. f(x)=270(1.05)^t


b. 2009 to 2020
2020-2009=11 years
t=11
f(11)=270(1.05)^{11}
f(11)=461.792
about 462 cranes


A. f(x)=270(1.05)^t
B. about 462

PLEASE HELP ILL MAKE YOU THE BRAINIEST What is the value of x
Alex787 [66]

~~~~~~\cos 45^{\circ}  = \dfrac{\text{Base}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\ \\\implies \dfrac 1{\sqrt 2} = \dfrac{x}{22}\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{22}{\sqrt 2}\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{22\sqrt 2}{2}\\\\\implies x = 11\sqrt 2\\

What is the solution to the inequality?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Oc. x>11

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 4 from 4 which will give you 0, then subtract 4 from 15 which should give you 11. x is still greater than 11. You don't switch the signs unless you're dividing or multiplying by a negative number. Hope this helps.

Twice the difference of a number and 9 is at least 17.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

x ≥ 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-9) ≥ 17---Use Distributive Property

2x-18 ≥ 17

2x-18+18 ≥ 17+18

2x ≥ 25

2x/2 ≥ 25/2

x ≥ 12.5

I hope this helps!
