The two pyramids below are similar. What is the length of the altitude of the
smaller pyramid?
HELP PLEASE

Answer:
The answer is B. [tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve for the length of the altitude of the smaller pyramid, start by writing the length of the altitudes and the length of the pyramids in a proportion. The proportion should look like [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] because each number has to correspond with its similar number.
Next, cross multiply both fractions to get an equation, which will look like 5x=(3)(2). Simplify the equation, and now it will look like 5x=6.
Then, divide both sides by 5, and the final answer will be [tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex].
