a)
Check the picture below.
b)
volume wise, we know the smaller pyramid is 1/8 th of the whole pyramid, so the volume of the whole pyramid must be 8/8 th.
Now, if we take off 1/8 th of the volume of whole pyramid, what the whole pyramid is left with is 7/8 th of its total volume, and that 7/8 th is the truncated part, because the 1/8 we chopped off from it, is the volume of the tiny pyramid atop.
Now, what's the ratio of the tiny pyramid to the truncated bottom?
The values of (x,y)=(4,4). In terms of x, the value y(x)=8-x, If the given equation is and
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given is,
...............................(1)
...............................(2)
Step:1
Solution can be obtained by Elimination method,
Equation (1) is multiplied by (-1) ( Eqn (1) × -1 )
..............................(3)
Substrate the equation (1) and equation (3),
( - )
we can cancel the minus because it is available in both sides,
x = 4
From the value of x, Equation (2) becomes,
(Value of y in terms of x)
Where, x = 4
Step:2
Check for solution,
.....................................(2)
Substitute the values of x and y,
4 + 4 = 8
8 = 8
Result:
The values of (x,y)=(4,4). In terms of x, the value y(x)=8-x, where x=4. If the given equation is and
