Cam's tent (shown below) is a triangular prism.

Mathematics
1 answer:
gregori [183]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The surface area of the tent is 21.4 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of a prism you must calculate:

1. The perimeter of the base

2. The area of the base

3. The height of the prism

We have a triangular prism:

Its base is an equilateral triangle of side length 2 m and height 1.7 m

The height of the prism is 3 m

∵ The surface are of the prism is:

  S.A = perimeter of the base × height + 2 × area of the base

∵ The perimeter of the equilateral triangle = 3 × length of a side

∵ The length of the side = 2 m

∴ The perimeter of the base = 3 × 2 = 6 m

∵ The area of the triangle =  × base × height

∵ The length of the base of the triangle = 2 m

∵ The height of the triangle = 1.7 m

∴ The area of the base =  × 2 × 1.7 = 1.7 m²

∵ S.A = perimeter of the base × height + 2 × area of the base

∵ The perimeter of the base = 6 m

∵ The area of the base = 1.7 m²

∵ The height of the prism = 3 m

∴ S.A = 6 × 3 + 2 × 1.7

∴ S.A = 18 + 3.4

∴ S.A = 21.4 m²

The surface area of the tent is 21.4 m²

If 5 ibs apples cost $2.99, how much would 3 ibs cost?
AnnZ [28]

We know that 5 lbs of apples cost $2.99

To know how much do 3 lbs of apple cost, you can use cross multiplication

If 5 lbs cost $2.99

Then 3 lbs cost $x

The proportion between the price and the number of apples is the same, you have to calculate it as:

\begin{gathered} \frac{2.99}{5}=\frac{x}{3} \\ (\frac{2.99}{5})\cdot3=x \\ x=1.794 \end{gathered}

3 lbs of apples cost $1.79
