Answer:

b = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

V = ab^t

See attachment for graph

From the graph

V = 20 when t = 0

This implies that:

V = ab^t

20 = ab^0

20 = a * 1

20 = a

a = 20

Also:

V = 4 when t = 1.5

So:

4 = ab^{1.5

Substitute 20 for a

4 = 20 * b^{1.5

Divide by 20

0.2 =b^{1.5

b^{1.5} = 0.2

Take 1.5th root of both sides

b = 0.34199518933

b = 0.3 --- approximated

The net of a square pyramid is shown
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a square pyramid is determined from the formula,

Surface area = Area of the square base + 4(Area of one lateral triangular side)

Area of the base = (Side)²

                            = 8²

                            = 64 cm²

Area of one lateral triangle = \frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})

                                             = \frac{1}{2}(8)(8)

                                             = 32 cm²

Therefore, surface area of the square pyramid = 64 + 4(32)

                                                                              = 64 + 128

                                                                              = 192 cm²

Therefore, Option (D) will be the correct option.

Multiple Representations:Question 1
alexdok [17]

Answer:

y = 27.1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the value of x:

x = 12

and we need to find the value of y in the expression:

y = x + 15.1

as we can see by the equation, the value of y depends on the value of x.

thus, we substitute x = 12 on the previous equation:

y = 12 + 15.1

y = 27.1

the value of y is 27.1
