The new business building uptown is building a wall made entirely of glass pyramids. Each pyramid will have a square base with length of 8 inches and height of 10 inches. If the wall requires 250 of these pyramids, what volume of glass will be used? Round to the nearest cubic inch.
If a pyramid has a base of B square units, and a height of h units, then the a Pyramid volume V is 1/3 B x h cubic units, or V = 1/3 Bh ... the Base has to be AREA so with a square base you would need to square the side length to be in squared form for this it needs to be V=1/3(8)^2 X (10) = 1/3(64)(10) ............ = 21.12 x 10 = ..........211cm^3
is that rounded ..
yes it is
I cant put that in my test it wouldnt take the ^ sign
is there another way to write it
@shannon342
are you taking the test online or its hand written
i tried just 211 and it counted it wrong & online
\[211cm ^3\]
are u able to write it like this
are u can put it in words
one sec and you dont need the unit
211cm cubed
and no it has to be numbers
did it work ?
no /:
it should take ^ sign idk why it isnt taking it
idk why maybe your answer is wrong
Nope answer is right
why is it cm ?
and u sure you rounded correctly
Centimeter
well we dont need that cuz on all the other problems i still got them right with no unit
