The Great Pyramid of Giza was constructed as a regular pyramid with a square base. It was built with an approximate volume of 2592276 cubic meters and a height of 146.5 meters. What was the length of one side of its base, to the nearest meter?

Answers

volume of a square-based pyramid = base edge^2 * height/3
so:
2,592,276 = base edge^2 * 146.5/3; therefore the base edge is approximately 230.4m

On the distant planet Cowabunga, the weights of cows have a normal distribution with a mean of 483 pounds and a standard deviation of 70 pounds. The cow transport truck holds 5 cows and can hold a maximum weight of 2840. If 5 cows are randomly selected from the very large herd to go on the truck, what is the probability their total weight will be over the maximum allowed of 2840
