The Volume of PYRAMID A is 8 times greater than the Volume of PYRAMID B as obtained by taking the ratio of the volume of both pyramids.

Volume of a square based pyramid is given as :

V = a^2h/3

Where; h = height ; a = base edge

Hence, Volume of PYRAMID A :

V = 14^2 * (6/3)\\\\V = 392 in^3

Volume of PYRAMID B = 3,136 in³

Divide Volume of pyramid B by pyramid A :

3136 in^3 / 392 in^3

= 8 times

Expressing as a percentage, multiply by 100% ;

8 * 100% = 800%

Therefore, The volume of PYRAMID B is 800% times GREATER THAN that of PYRAMID A.

Answer:

r = 8  ( The volume of pyramid B is 8 times bigger than the volume of pyramid A

As percentage

The volume of pyramid B is 800 % bigger than the volume of pyramid A

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume for a right square pyramid is:

V = (1/3) * x²*h        where  x is the side of the square base and h the height, according to this: the volume of pyramid A is:

V(A) = (1/3)* (14)²*6 = 392 in³

Pyramid B has a volume of  3136 in³.

For us to get how many times the volume of pyramid B is bigger than the volume of pyramid A, we divide

r = Volume of pyramid B / Volume of pyramid A

r = 3136/ 392

r = 8

As percentage volume of pyramid B is 800 % bigger than the volume of pyramid A

Solve the triangle for x.
Damm [24]

Answer:

d) 86.2 degrees

x = 86.20°

Attached is the image used in the question;

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying the law of cosine;

Cos C = (a² + b² - c²)/2ab

Where;

Angle C = x

c = 13 ft

b = 9ft

a = 10ft

Substituting into the equation;

Cos x = (10² + 9² - 13²)/(2×10×9)

Cos x = 0.0667

x = cos⁻¹(0.0667)

x = 86.20°

A new hospital tracked the number of births during its first 6 months of operation, as shown in the table. Find a quadratic func
UNO [17]
Let    x refers to the Month numbers
And  y refers to Number of births

There is 5 steps to find the quadratic function that models the data.

First step           ⇒ <span>Plot <span>the data pairs (<span>x<span>, <span>y<span>) in a coordinate plane.
                              which are the blue circles in the attached figure

Second step     ⇒ </span></span></span></span></span></span><span>Draw <span>the parabola you think best fits the data.
                             Which is the red function in the attached figure.

</span></span><span><span>Third step         ⇒</span> Estimate <span>the coordinates of three points on the
<span>                             parabola, which are (2, 108), (4, 68), and (6, 75).</span>
                             </span></span><span><span>which are the black squares in the attached figure</span>

Fourth step       ⇒ </span><span>Substitute <span>the coordinates of the points into the<span> model <span>
                            y <span>= <span>ax<span>2 <span>+ <span>bx <span>+ <span>c
<span>                            to obtain a system of three linear equations.</span>

                            4a + 2 b + c = 108   ---------(1)
                            </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span>16a + 4 b + c = 68   ---------(2)</span>
                            36a + 6 b + c = 75   ---------(3)   

Fifth step   ⇒ </span><span>Solve <span>the linear system.
                      By using the calculator
                      a = 5.875 , b = -55.25 , c = 195

So, the</span></span><span> quadratic model for the data is ⇒ y = 5.875 x²- 55.25 x + 195
============================================
T</span><span>o predict the number of births for month 8
substitute with x = 8 ⇒  y = </span><span>5.875 * 8²- 55.25 * 8 + 195 = 129</span>
