Answer:

$V=6.66\ ft^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the square base of a pyramid = 7.3 ft

The height of the pyramid, h = 6ft

The perimeter of a square is given by :

P = 4s, s is the side of square

7.3 = 4s

s = 1.825 ft

The volume of a pyramid is given by :

$V=\dfrac{lbh}{3}$

Here, l = b = 1.825 ft

So,

$V=\dfrac{1.825\times 1.825\times 6}{3}\\\\V=6.66\ ft^3$

So, the volume of the pyramid is equal to $6.66\ ft^3$ .

The given ratios expresses the number of time a value is larger or smaller

than another value.

The correct responses are;

3. <u>(B) 12 and 24</u>

4. <u>(D) 6, 9, 21</u>

5. $\underline{(E) \ \displaystyle \frac{11}{2}}$

6. $\underline{(E) \ \displaystyle \frac{5}{14}}$

7. (B) $\overline{EF}$ =<u> 6</u>, $\overline{AC}$ = <u>9·√5</u>

8. <u>(C) The values are equal</u>

9. <u>(A) The value in column A is greater</u>

Reasons:

3. Given that the perimeter of the rectangle = 72

The ratio of the lengths of the sides = 1:2

Let <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> represent the sides, we have;

2·a + 2·b = 72

$\displaystyle \frac{a}{b} = \mathbf{\frac{1}{2}}$

Which gives;

2·a = b

2·a + 2·(2·a) = 72

6·a = 72

a = 72 ÷ 6 = 12

b = 2·a = 2 × 12 = 24

The lengths of the sides are; <u>(B) 12 and 24</u>

4. Extended ratio = 2:3:7

The perimeter = 36

The lengths of the sides are;

$\displaystyle \frac{2}{2 + 3 + 7} \times 36 = \mathbf{6}$

$\displaystyle \frac{3}{2 + 3 + 7} \times 36 = \mathbf{9}$

$\displaystyle \frac{7}{2 + 3 + 7} \times 36 = \mathbf{21}$

The lengths are; <u>(D) 6, 9, 21</u>

5. The given equation is presented as follows;

$\displaystyle \frac{5}{x + 7} = \mathbf{\frac{3}{x + 2}}$

5 × (x + 2) = 3 × (x + 7)

5·x + 10 = 3·x + 21

5·x - 3·x = 21 - 10

2·x = 11

$\displaystyle x = \mathbf{ \frac{11}{2}}$

The correct option is; $\displaystyle \underline{(E) \ \frac{11}{2}}$

6. The width to length ratio is $\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{2.5}{7.0}}$

The simplified ratio is therefore;

$\displaystyle \frac{2.5}{7.0} = \frac{2 \times 2.5}{2 \times 7.0} = \mathbf{\frac{5}{14}}$

The correct option is (E) $\displaystyle \underline{(E) \ \frac{5}{14}}$

7. The given ratio of the lengths is 3:1

Therefore;

$\overline{BC}$ : $\overline{EF}$ = 3:1

Which gives;

$\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{\overline{BC}}{\overline{EF}}} = \frac{3}{1}$

$\overline{BC}$ = 18

Therefore;

$\displaystyle \frac{18}{\overline{EF}} = \frac{3}{1}$

18 × 1 = 3 × $\overline{EF}$

$\displaystyle \overline{EF} = \frac{18 \times 1}{3} = 6$

$\overline{EF}$ = 6

By Pythagorean theorem, we have;

$\overline{DF}$ ² = $\mathbf{\overline{DE}}$ ² + $\mathbf{\overline{EF}}$ ²

Which gives;

$\overline{DF}$ ² = 3² + 6² = 45

$\overline{DF}$ = √(45) = 3·√5

Using the given ratio, we have;

$\overline{AC}$ = 3 × $\mathbf{\overline{DF}}$

Which gives;

$\overline{AC}$ = 3 × 3·√5 = 9·√5

$\overline{AC}$ = 9·√5

The correct option is; (B) $\overline{EF}$ =<u> 6</u>, $\overline{AC}$ = <u>9·√5</u>

8. EF = 1, AB = 2

CD = 2, CE = 4

Therefore;

$\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{EF}{AB}} =\frac{1}{2}$

$\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{CD}{CE}} =\frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$

Which gives;

$\displaystyle \frac{EF}{AB} =\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{CD}{CE}}$

<u>(C) The values are equal</u>

9. AC = 6, BE = 8

DF = 3, BD = 6

Column A

$\displaystyle \frac{AC}{BE} =\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{6}{8}} = \frac{3}{4}$

Column B

$\displaystyle \frac{DF}{BD} =\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{3}{6}} = \frac{1}{2}$

$\displaystyle \frac{3}{4} > \mathbf{\frac{1}{2}}$

Therefore;

Column A is greater than column B

<u>(A) The value in column A is greater</u>

What is the value of x

zaharov [31]

We use the Pythagorean theorem here, because we have the two sides and a right angle between them, so we calculate the hypotenuse like this:

x^2 = 6^2 + 8^2

x^2 = 36 + 64

x^2 = 100

x = square root of 100

x = 10

The correct answer is B.10.
