Answer: 5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Volume of clay = 48 cubic inches
If we make a solid square right pyramid with a base edge a= 6 inches.
Then its base area = 
we know that volume of square right pyramid=
Therefore, volume of square right pyramid made by all of clay=
=48 cubic inches
![\Rightarrow\frac{1}{3}\times\ (36)\times\ h=48\\\Rightarrow12h=48\\\Rightarrow\ h=4\ inches.....\text{[Divide 12 on both sides]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CRightarrow%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%5Ctimes%5C%20%2836%29%5Ctimes%5C%20h%3D48%5C%5C%5CRightarrow12h%3D48%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%5C%20h%3D4%5C%20inches.....%5Ctext%7B%5BDivide%2012%20on%20both%20sides%5D%7D)
Now, slant height 

The slant height of the pyramid if Helen uses all the clay=5 inches
Answer:
Option (a)
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of a line passing through two points
and
is given by,
Slope (m) = 
Slope of the line passing through (-4, 3) and (6, 3) will be,
m = 
m = 0
In other words, slope of any line parallel to x-axis is zero.
Therefore, Option (a) is the answer.
