A hexagonal pyramid is cut by a plane as shown in the diagram. What is the shape of the resulting cross section? see diagram
Alenkasestr [34]

From the diagram you can see that plane cuts each lateral face of hexagonal pyramid and do not cut the base. A hexagonal pyramid has six lateral faces. The intersection of each of these lateral faces with given cutting plane is segment. The figure which consists of these segments is hexagon. This hexagon is not the same as base and even is not similar to the base because the cutting plane is not parallel to the base.

Answer: resulting cross section is a hexagon, correct choice is option 4.

Alla [95]

Answer:

The probability that Jones is lying is 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will list out 2 different cases when the outcome is a lie

1.probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6 and probability that dalgiliesh analyses it correctly is 0.8

So the probability that dagliesh correctly analyses that he is telling lies is 0.8*0.6=0.48

2.Probability that Jones tells truth is 0.4 and if dagliesh analyses it incorrectly (which has a probability of 0.2) the outcome(as analysed by dagiliesh) is a lie

So probability that dagliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is 0.2*.0.4=0.08

Total probability of outcome being a lie is 0.48+0.08=0.56

But we need the probability of Jones actually saying a lie which is nothing but 0.48/0.56= 6/7

Which equation is the inverse of y = 2x2 – 8?
Marrrta [24]

The inverse of the the function above is y = \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}


In order to find the inverse of any function, you need to switch the x and y values. Once you've done that, you need to solve for the new y value. The resulting equation will be your inverse. The work for this one is below.


y = 2x^2 - 8 ----> Switch the terms

x = 2y^2 - 8 ----> Add 8 to both sides.

x + 8 = 2y^2 ----> Divide both sides by 2.

\frac{x+8}{2} = y^2 ----> Now take the square root of both sides.

\sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}} = y


What's left is your inverse. You can change the order so that it is in a more acceptable form.


y = \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a figure it dilated by scale factor k, then the image and preimage are similar figures and their corresponding sides are proportional.

In triangle I, the base of the triangle is 1 unit and length of the perpendicular is 1 units.

In triangle II, the base of the triangle is 1 unit and length of the perpendicular is 2 units.

\frac{1}{1}\neq \frac{1}{2}

The corresponding sides are not proportional. It means both triangles are not similar. So, there is no dilation transforming triangle I into triangle II.

Therefore the correct option is 4.
