This question is incomplete because it lacks the appropriate attachment containing the argument of Paul and Manuel

Kindly find attached the appropriate attachment necessary to solve this question.

The attachment was sourced online

Answer:

a) Paul's argument is correct, Manuel used the wrong formula to find the volume of square pyramid X

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we are given two shapes: Cone W and Square Pyramid

Cone W: Radius = 8cm, Height = 5cm

Volume of a Cone = 1/3 πr²h

Where π = 3.14

Volume of Cone X = 1/3 × 3.14 × 8² × 5

= 334.93cm³

For Square pyramid X

Volume = 1/3 × Base Area × Height

Base Area of Cone W = Base Area of square pyramid X = πr²

Where π = 3.14

Base area = 3.14 × 8² = 200.96cm²

Height of Square pyramid X = Height of Cone W = 5cm

Volume of Square pyramid = 1/3 ×200.96cm² × 5cm

= 334.93cm³

Therefore, from my above calculation and compared with the arguments of Paul and Manuel, Option a) "Paul's argument is correct, Manuel used the wrong formula to find the volume of square pyramid X" is the correct option.

The reason why is because the correct formula for the volume of a square pyramid = 1/3 × Base area × Height

This was the formula Paul used.

Manuel on the other hand used the formula: Base Area × Height to find the volume of cone W. This formula is wrong.

Option a, is the correct answer.

Help with math please asap <br> 1. Solve the inequality <br> 1/5 + 1/3 X &gt; 1/2 X - 1/4
Finger [1]

Answer:

The solution set is x < 2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, get all of the x terms on the right side and all the constant terms on the left.

1/5 + 1/3x > 1/2x - 1/4

1/5 + 1/4 + 1/3x > 1/2x

1/5 + 1/4 > 1/2x - 1/3x

Now give the terms on each side common denominators.

4/20 + 5/20 > 3/6x - 2/6x

9/20 > 1/6x

Now we can multiply both sides by 6.

27/10 > x

2.7 > x

PLEASE HELP ITS AN EMERGENCYYYYYYYYYY!!!
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The value of k is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

x – 1 is a factor of f(x)

This means that:

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

That means that when x = 1, y = 0. We use this to find the value of k.

f(x) = 3x^3 - 4x + k

3*1^3 - 4(1) + k = 0

3 - 4 + k = 0

k = 1

The value of k is 1.

16. Let W be the set of all vectors in R3 of the form a+2b b -3a Find a basis for Wand state the dimension of W.
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

W=\{\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a+2b\\b\\-3a\end{array}\right]: a,b\in\mathbb{R} \}

Observe that if the vector x=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] is in W then it satisfies:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}a+2b\\b\\-3a\end{array}\right]=a\left[\begin{array}{c}1\\0\\-3\end{array}\right]+b\left[\begin{array}{c}2\\1\\0\end{array}\right]

This means that each vector in W can be expressed as a linear combination of the vectors \left[\begin{array}{c}1\\0\\-3\end{array}\right], \left[\begin{array}{c}2\\1\\0\end{array}\right]

Also we can see that those vectors are linear independent. Then the set

\{\left[\begin{array}{c}1\\0\\-3\end{array}\right], \left[\begin{array}{c}2\\1\\0\end{array}\right]\} is a basis for W and the dimension of W is 2.
