<u>1</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>inches</u> is the height of the pyramid

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is a³

Given <em>a</em> = 5 inches

→ Volume = a³

= 5³

= 5×5×5

= <u>125 in²</u>

The volume of a pyramid is \frac{1}{3} {a}^{2}h

Given a = 5 inches , h = height of pyramid

=  >  \frac{1}{3} {a}^{2} h

=  >  \frac{1}{3}(5)^{2}h

=  >  \frac{1}{3} \times 25 \times h

=  >  \frac{25}{3}h

then,

125 =  \frac{25h}{3}

=  > 25h = 125 \times 3

=  > 25h = 375

=  > h =  \frac{375}{25}

=  > h = 15

Hence, the height of pyramid is <u>1</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>inches</u>

A roped-off area of width x is created around a 30- by 10-foot rectangular museum display of Native American artifacts. The comb
Monica [59]

Answer: 4x^{2}+80x-500=0

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that:

-  The roped-off area whose width is represented with <em>x,</em> it is created around  a rectangular museum.

- The dimensions of the rectangular museum are: 30 ft by 10 ft.

- The combined area of the display and the roped-off area is 800 ft².

2. The area of the rectangular museum can be calculated with:

A=l*w

Where l is the lenght and w is the width.

You have that the lenght and the width in feet are:

l=30\\w=10

3. Let's call x the width of the roped-off area. Then, the combined area is:

A_c=l_c*w_c

Where

A_c=800

l_c=l+x+x=30+2x

w_c=w+x+x=10+2x

4. Substitute values and simplify. Then:

 800=(30+2x)(10+2x)

800=300+60x+20x+4x^{2}\\4x^{2}+80x-500=0

How do you make this equation 13+5y=6x into slope-intercept form?
Reil [10]
In slope-intercept form, the y variable is isolated.
so,
<span>13+5y=6x
Subtract 13 on both sides.
5y=6x-13
Divide by 5 on both sides.
y=6/5 x -13/5</span>
