A solid oblique pyramid has a square base with edges measuring x cm. The height of the pyramid is (x + 2) cm. Which expression r
zavuch27 [327]

we know that

the volume of a solid oblique pyramid is equal to

V=\frac{1}{3}*B*h

where

B is the area of the base

h is the height of the pyramid

in this problem we have that

B is a square

B=b^{2}

where

<u>b=x\ cm</u>

so

B=x^{2}\ cm^{2}

h=(x+2)\ cm

substitute in the formula of volume

V=\frac{1}{3}*x^{2}*(x+2)\\ \\V=\frac{1}{3}*[x^{3} +2x^{2}]\ cm^{3}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

V=\frac{1}{3}*[x^{3} +2x^{2}]\ cm^{3}

At the store I can buy a 2 pack of shirts for $22.78 or a 6 pack of shirts for $67.80. Which is the better deal?
mina [271]

Answer: A 6 pack of shirts for $67.80 is the better deal than the other one.

Step-by-step explanation: Is that one because you need to divide each of the prices to the number of shirts. First, lets start of with 22.78/2, 22.78 divided by the 2 pack of shirts is a quotient of $11.39.

Next lets do $67.80 / 6, So 67.80 divided by 6 equals $11.30. Meanwhile, 11.30 < 11.39 because of the sale. So that's why the 6 pack of shirts for $67.80 is the better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

-5c - 15 = -35

Add 15 to each side

-5c - 15+15 = -35+15

-5c = -20

Divide each side by -5

-5c/-5 = -20/-5
