Answer:
A) 5.12mm³
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Find the volume of the bigger pyramid
This is a triangular based pyramid.
The formula to use is given as Volume of Pyramid =
1/3 × Area of the triangle × Height
Area of the triangle = 1/2 × 3 mm × 4mm = 6mm²
Volume of the large pyramid = 1/3 × 6mm² × 5mm
= 10mm³
We are given the length of the small pyramid as 4mm
We would be using was is known as scale factor to find the volume of the small pyramid
The scale factor k = (Height of the small pyramid)³/ (Height of the Large pyramid)³
k = 4³/5³
k = Volume of small pyramid/ Volume of large pyramid
Volume of small pyramid = X
Volume of large pyramid = 10mm³
Hence,
4³/5³ = X/10
Cross Multiply
= 4³ × 10 = 5³ × X
X = (4³ × 10)/ 5³
X = 5.12mm³
This is a proportion problem because the problem stated that the two team pennants are similar.
Pennant 1 = base = 18 in ; length = 9 inches
Pennant 2 = base = 6 in ; length = x ?
9/18 = x/6
9*6 = 18x
54 = 18x
54/18 = x
3 = x
The length of the side of the smaller pennant is 3 inches.
Answer:
9 gallons per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 54 gallons that came out of a pipe within 6 minutes, then we divide 54 by 6 to get how many would come out in 1 minute.
54/6 = 9.
