Mr. Wright needs to buy a water tank for his classroom. The tank must fit inside a storage box that is shaped like a cube with side lengths of 20 feet. Water tanks are available in cylinders, cones, square pyramids, and spheres. Mr. Wright wants to buy the tank that has the largest capacity… What shape should he buy?

square pyramids

Step-by-step explanation:

Square pyramids because they have corners and the storage box is shaped like a cube. If he gets things with rounded edges, then there will be empty space between each water tank.

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is

step-by-step explanation:

there are 36 inches in a yard

25 : 36 = 0.69 yards (you can round to 0.70)
