Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, you're being asked to identify the sequence of steps you would use to compute the volume of the pyramid.

It seems to be a good idea to start with the formula for the volume.

Then, recognize that you need to compute B, so make that computation. The area of the base (B) is the product of the base dimensions (14)(12).

Once you have the value of B, then you can put that, along with the value of h, into the original volume formula.

Evaluating it gives the volume in cubic units.

Additional comment

If you're familiar with the pyramid volume formula, you know that you must compute B before you can make use of the formula. That makes the sequence be B=14(12); B=168; V=1/3Bh; V=1/3(168)(7).

However, if you're starting from scratch, it is probably good to begin with the volume formula. That is what tells you that you need to find B in the first place. This is the sequence we show below.

What is an equation of a line which passes through (6,9) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 4x − 6y = 15?

Svetllana [295]

Given:

The equation of the line passes through the point (6,9) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is $4 x-6 y=15$

We need to determine the equation of the line.

Slope:

Let us convert the equation to slope - intercept form.

$-6 y=15-4x$

$y=\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{5}{2}$

From the above equation, the slope is $m_1=\frac{2}{3}$

Since, the lines are perpendicular, the slope of the line can be determined using the formula,

$m_1 \cdot m_2=-1$

$\frac{2}{3} \cdot m_2=-1$

$m_2=-\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore, the slope of the equation is $m=-\frac{3}{2}$

Equation of the line:

The equation of the line can be determined using the formula,

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Substituting the point (6,9) and the slope $m=-\frac{3}{2}$ in the above formula, we get;

$y-9=-\frac{3}{2}(x-6)$

Simplifying the terms, we get;

$2(y-9)=-3(x-6)$

$2y-18=-3x+18$

$3x+2y=36$

Thus, the equation of the line is $3x+2y=36$

How do I solve question 5?

Nezavi [6.7K]

A) x^2 + y^2 = 80
B) x * y = 12

What is x^2 -y^2?
B) x * y = 12
So y = 12 / x
A) x^2 + (12/x)^2 = 80
x^2 + (12/x)^2 = 80
x^2 + (144/x^2) = 80
Multiplying each side by x^2
x^4 + 144 = 80x^2
x^4 -80x^2 + 144 = 0
X = 1.355 (found by trial and error)
Y = 8.85608 (found by trial and error)

How to make a graph of an exponential function that shows exponential decay and has a y intercept of 2

Sliva [168]

Answer:

$f(x)=2e^{-kx}$

in a graph the x value at the y intercept is 0

$f(x)=Ae^{-kx}$ is a typical decay function

if x = 0 thus $e^{-kx}$ = 1

so at 0 the function value would be A

$f(x)=2e^{-kx}$

Give the equation for each of the following statements.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Y varies jointly as R and T

Y = k*R*T

Y = kRT

Where,

k = constant of proportionality

2. B is directly proportional to the square of A and inversely proportional to the cube of C.

B = k(A²) / C³

B = kA²/C³

Where,

k = constant of proportionality
