To obtain the total surface we have to calculate the surface of the 4 triangles and add up the areas (remember that the area of a triangle is (b*h)/2 , b is the base, h is the height ).

We will caculate first the area of the base triangle for that we considerer the fact that it is an equilateral triangle with sides of lenght 6 cm, now we calculate the height, I am going to draw please wait a moment

using the pythagorean theorem we have that

\begin{gathered} h^2=6^2cm^2-3^2\operatorname{cm}=27cm^2 \\ h=\text{ }\sqrt[]{27\text{ }}cm \end{gathered}

Then, the area of the triangle is 6*h/2 = 3h = 15.59 cm^2.

Now we calculate the area of the other 3 triangles, notice that those triangles have the same base and height so we will calculate for one of them and multiply by 3. From the image we know that the height is 15cm and the base is 6 cm so the area is 45cm^2, and 45*3 cm^2 = 135cm^2.

Finally we add up all the areas:

135cm^2+15.59cm^2=150.59cm^2

Answer:

  • It is a linear equation
  • The graph of the equation will show that the <em>y</em> values increase as the <em>x</em> values increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pay Michael gets (y) is the amount per paper ($0.40) multiplied by the number of papers (x) and that product added to the daily base pay of $5. Michael's daily pay (in dollars) can be described by ...

  y = 5.00 + 0.40x

This is a linear equation with a positive slope (meaning y goes up when x goes up).

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Without price increase, Cost/night = $119

Average occupancy = 372 The revenue will be 119*372 = $44,268

For every $15 price increase, the occupancy decreases by 25. Therefore with x price increases, The revenue will be $(119 + 15x)*(372 25x)

Cost/night = $119 + 15x Occupancy = 372 - 25x

Answer:

The nightly cost with x $15 price increases is $119 + 15x.
