Answer:
Use the one line segment as flower stem and use the 8 rays as petals.
One is 17.22 and the other is simply 2.
To solve, we use the volume of a square pyramid formula which is expressed as the product of the area of the base (a²) and the height divided by three(h/3).
Volume = a² (h/3)
1024 in³ = (a²) (12 in/3)
a² = 1024 in³ · 3 /12
a = √256 in²
a = 16 in
Thus, the length of the base is 16 in.
3(y-1)=y-11
Distribute:
3y - 1 = y- 11
Add 11 to both sides
3y - 12 = y
subtract 3y on both sides
-12 = -2y
Divide by 2y
y= 6
