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!

Find the equation of the line specified. The slope is -4, and it passes through ( 5, 8).
ollegr [7]

Answer:

B. y= -4x + 28

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of this line first put it into slope-point form, y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1}) where y_{1} and x_{1} are the y and x coordinates and m is the slope. So plug in the information to get the equation, y-8=-4(x-5). Then solve for y,

First, distribute the -4

y-8=-4x+20

Next, add 8 to both sides

y=-4x+28

What is 9.375 Rounded to the nearest hundredth
stiks02 [169]

Note the hundredth place value (underlined and bolded):

9.3<u>7</u>5

Look at the number to the right of the hundredth place value. It is a 5. Because you round up if the number is 5 or greater, you round up in this case (you round down if it is 4 or less).

9.375 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 9.38
