Natalee wanted to demonstrate the volume of a square pyramid. To do this, she took a hollowed out pyramid that has a base of 25

swat32

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Natalee transferred water from a square pyramid to a cube. To calculate how many times she will need to dump the water from the pyramid into the cube to completely fill the cube, we divide the volume of the cube by the volume of the square pyramid. Hence:

Number of times = volume of cube / volume of pyramid

The perimeter of the pyramid base = 25 in, hence the length of one side of the bae = 25 / 4 = 6.25 in

Volume of square pyramid = base² × (height / 3) = (6.25 in)² * (5 in / 3) = 65.1 in³

Volume of cube = 125 in³

Number of times = 125 in³ / 65.1 in³ = 1.92

Amir stands on a balcony and throws a ball to his dog, who is at ground level.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

16 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The height function is given by:

$h(x)=-(x+1)(x-7)\\h(x)=-(x^2+x-7x-7)\\h(x)=-x^2+6x+7$

The value of x, in seconds, for which the derivate of the height function is zero, is the time at which the maximum height occurs:

$\frac{dh(x)}{dx}= h'(x)=-2x+6=0\\x=3$

For x = 3 seconds, the height is:

$h(3)=-(3^2)+6*3+7\\h(3)=16\ m$

The maximum height that the ball will reach is 16 meters.
