Answer:

Part a) Rectangle

Part b) Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) A cross section of the rectangular pyramid is cut with a plane parallel to the base. What is the name of the shape created by the cross section?

we know that

When a geometric plane slices any right pyramid so that the cut is parallel to the plane of the base, the cross section will have the same shape (but not the same size) as the base, So, in the case of a right rectangular pyramid, the cross section is a rectangle

Part b)  If a cross section of the rectangular pyramid is cut perpendicular to the base, passing through the top vertex, what would be the shape of the resulting cross section?

we know that

Cross sections perpendicular to the base and through the vertex will be triangles

Savatey [412]
<span>Let the cost of 2-scoop cones be x, and the cost of sundaes be y.
The first statement tells us that 5x = 3y
The second statement tells us that 9x + 6y = 19.95
Then we need to calculate the value of y (the cost of a sundae).
From our first equation, y = 5x/3. Substituting this into the second equation:
9x + 6(5x/3) = 19.95
9x + 10x = 19.95
19x = 19.95
x = 1.05
Substituting back into the first equation: 5(1.05) = 3y
5.25 = 3y
y = 1.75
Therefore the cost of a sundae is $1.75.

Answer:

<u>3</u> fewer fluids ounces the regular bottle of sunscreen holds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The family size bottle of sunscreen holds = 12 oz.

The regular bottle holds 75% less.

Now, to find how much fewer fluids ounces does the regular bottle of sunscreen holds.

So, according to question:

12-75\%\ of\ 12

=12-frac{75}{100} \times 12

=12-0.75\times 12

=12-9

=3\ oz.

Therefore, 3 fewer fluids ounces the regular bottle of sunscreen holds.
