The volume of a pyramid is V = 1/3 x base length^2 x height
Let X = base length.
We are told the height is 1/2 the length, so height would be 1/2x
Now we have:
972 = 1/3 * x^2 * 1/2x
Simplifying we get:
972 = 1/6x^3
Multiply both sides by 6:
5832 = x^3
Take the cube root of both sides:
x = 18
The length of the base is 18 inches.
The height is 1/2 that, so the height would be 18/2 = 9 inches.

In this equation, the "-0.03" is the decay factor or "k"
We can now solve for half-life by this equation:
</span>t = <span>(<span>ln [y(t) ÷ a]<span>)<span> ÷ -k (we can say beginning amount = 200 and ending amount = 100

Answer:
14 pints of 20% juice
56 pints of 95% juice
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x be pints of 20% pure fruit juice, thus
70 - x will be pints of 95% pure fruit juice
The equation, thus can be written as:
20%x + 95% (70-x) = 80% (70)
Solving for x:
And 70 - x would be 70 - 14 = 56
Thus,
14 pints of 20% juice is needed, and
56 pints of 95% juice is needed
