The largest  number of pyramids she can make from 20 bars of chocolate is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you must find the volume of the 20 bars of chocolate, remember that each bar contains 6 cubic inches of chocolate (6 in^3), so:

Now, you must find the volume of each pyramid, using the next formula:

Where:

B = area of the square base.

h = height of the pyramid.

How these values are given in the problem, we only replace the values in the formula:

Finally, we divide the volume of the bars in the volume of each pyramid:

d

gimmee one of those gold crowns!

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
