AC and DB are the same length. Set the two to equal each other and solve for y.
9y + 1 = 8y +17
Subtract 8y from both sides:
y + 1 = 17
Subtract 1 from each side:
y = 16
Now you know Y you can find the the length of DB:
DB = 8y +17 = 8(16) +17 = 128 + 17 = 145
EB is half of DB:
EB = 145 / 2
EB = 72.5
I believe the correct answer is 15, because 15/8 x 15/1= 225/8 and when you simplify that you get 28 with 1/8 left over.
Answer:
The surface area of the given pyramid is 112
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Base length of the pyramid = 4 inches
Area of the base = 
= 
= 16
Area of its base = 16 
Area of one of its triangular surface =
x base x height
=
x 4 x 12
= 2 x 12
= 24 
Area of all its four triangular surfaces = 4 x 24
= 96 
surface area of the pyramid = sum of areas of all its surfaces
= 16 + 96
= 112 
The surface area of the given pyramid is 112
.
It's the one second below the question because it does not have two outcomes for x. For example in a relation x could result in y = 2 or y = -2.
Hope this helps! :)
