Answer:
Well a linear equation is in a straight line. To show it was not linear on a coordinate grid the slope would not be a straight line
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there were 9 feet of ribbon and Jim uses 1/3 we are going to do 9/1 * 1/3 and get 3 Jim makes 3 ribbons.
A = L * H
A = 65
L = 2H - 3
65 = H(2H - 3)
65 = 2H^2 - 3H
-2H^2 + 3H + 65 = 0
(-Hh + 13)(H + 5) = 0
-2H + 13 = 0
-2H = -13
H = -13/-2
H = 6.5 <== height is 6.5 inches
H + 5 = 0
H = -5....this wont work because it is negative
L = 2H - 3
L = 2(6.5) - 3
L = 13 - 3
L = 10 <== length is 10 inches
The volume of the triangular prism is 66 cubic inches.
In order for us to know the volume of the triangular pyramid, first we need to know the ratio of the volume of triangular prism and the volume of the triangular pyramid.
Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 * volume of the prism.
Volume of the pyramid = 1 / 3 * 66
<span>Volume of the pyramid = 22 cubic inches.
</span>
So the volume of the triangular pyramid is 22 cubic inches.
