2. A right square pyramid is inverted so it is pointing down. The pyramid’s base has an area of 100 square centimeters and the area of one face is 60 square centimeters.

a. What is the volume of the pyramid?

b. The pyramid was filled with a solution. Some of the solution was drained out the vertex of the pyramid into a cylindrical dish with a radius of four centimeters. The level of liquid in the pyramid dropped three centimeters. How deep is the solution in the dish?

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer

correct me if i am wrong.

you would need to also lose 1 point for each of the other outcomes for it to be fair.
