A hanging light cover made of glass is shaped like a square pyramid. The cover does not have a bottom. One square foot of the glass weighs 2.45 pounds. The chain can support 35 pounds. Will the chain support the light cover? Explain.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this item, all we have to identify is the area of the hanging light cover. Because it is said that it does not have a cover, we are only concerned about the lateral area which is equal to 

                        Lateral area = 4(x)(l)/2 = 2xl

where x is the measure of the side of the square base and l is the length of the slant height. 

After calculating the area in square foot, we multiply this to 2.45 pounds/ft², if the obtained value is ≤ 35 then, the chain can support the light cover. 

not enough information

step-by-step explanation:

we cannot know this, because the other students could have handed out 10 flyers, or they could have handed out 100. one way, the mean would go up, and another way, the mean would go down.

i think that you should ask google for the answer to that problem because if we don't know it google does
