Answer to Problem 26E

  Dimensions are: 30×30×21 inches

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Architecture: A hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, is the largest pyramid in the United States. Prior to the construction of the building, the architects designed a scale model.

  Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 4.4, Problem 26E , additional homework tip  5

Calculation:

  Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 4.4, Problem 26E , additional homework tip  6

  L39L218,900=0

By graphing you can estimate the zero to be at x = 30.

Confirming with synthetic division you get:

  (x30)(x2+21x+630)

Since the quadratic is prime, the only plausible answer is x = 30.

Therefore,

  Dimensions are: 30×30×21 inches
