Answer:
Minus each number to figure out the common difference which is -4.
54-4= 50
50-4= 46
46-4= 42
42-4= 38
Volume of pyramid:
A - base area
H - height
First count volume of one pyramid:
![V=\dfrac{1}{3} \cdot 3 \cdot 4=4 [\hbox{inch}^3]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%20%5Ccdot%203%20%5Ccdot%204%3D4%20%5B%5Chbox%7Binch%7D%5E3%5D)
So by using 576 inch^3 you can make 576 : 4 =
144 pyramids
Multiplying positive numbers always comes out positive, no matter how many there are. So you can forget about the positive ones.
Every two negative numbers in a multiplication produce a positive.
Another way to say that is: If the number of negative ones is EVEN,
the answer is positive, and if it's ODD, the answer is negative.
That monster product of eight numbers in problem #12 will be negative,
because there are an odd amount of negative factors in it.
6:10 is 47 mins before 6:57!!
A. f(b) = 3+b
b. f(x) = (x+3)²
c. f(x) = (x+3)/(12-x)
d. f(x) = x⁵-4x+6
e. f(x) = -45
f. f(x) = x
