Answer:

The volume of pyramid is 153 cubic feet with a height of 17 feet and a base with an area of 27 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :


  • \small\green\bull Height of pyramid = 12 feet

  • \small\green\bull Base area of pyramid = 23 feet

  • \small\green\bull Volume of pyramid = 92 cubic feet


\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}

To Find :


  • \small\green\bull The volume of a pyramid with a height of 17 feet and a base with an area of 27 square feet.


\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}

Solution :

Mathematically, the relationship between the three variables is given by the expression :


\longrightarrow{\sf{V \: \alpha \: kHA}}


\longrightarrow{\sf{V = kHA}}


  • \pink\star V = Volume

  • \pink\star H = height

  • \pink\star A = base area

  • \pink\star k = constant


\rule{200}2

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find k (constant) :


\begin{gathered} \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{V = kHA}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{92 = k * 12 * 23}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{92 = k * 276}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{92 = 276k}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{k = (92)/(276)}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{k = \frac{\cancel{92}}{\cancel{276}}}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{k = (1)/(3) \: feet}}\end{gathered}

Hence, the value of k (constant) is 1/3 feet.


\rule{200}2

Now, finding the volume of pyramid with height of 17 feet and a base with an area of 27 square feet by substituting the values in the formula :


\begin{gathered} \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{V = kHA}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{V = (1)/(3) * 17 * 27 }} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{V = \frac{1}{\cancel{3}} * 17 * \cancel{27 }}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{V = 1* 17 * 9}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{V = 17 * 9}} \\ \\ \qquad\longrightarrow{\sf{V = 153 \: {feet}^(3) }}\end{gathered}

Hence, the volume of pyramid ks 153 cubic feet.

Answer:

153 cubic feet

Explanation:

V = kha .........where h is height and a area and V is volume

92 = k * 12 * 23

k = 92/(12*23) =1/3

if k, constant is 1/3

volume =1/3 * 17 * 27

=153 cubic feet
