Base or base number
for example 2^3 = 2 * 2 * 2 or x^2 = x * x
Answer:
y=9 and x=18
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that y+3=12 so 12-3=9
You know that x-3=15 so 15+3=18
First, change each mixed fraction into improper
2 3/8 = 19/8
1 3/4 = 7/4
The problem will look like: (19/8)/(7/4)
To solve, flip the second fraction, and change the division sign into a multiplication sign.
(19/8)/(7/4) = (19/8) x (4/7)
Multiply across
(19/8) x (4/7) = 76/56
Simplify.
76/56 simplified = 19/14
Change to mixed fraction
19/14 = 14/14 + 5/14 = 1 5/14
1 5/14 is your answer

Answer:
12.9 square yards
Step-by-step explanation:
The base is an equilateral triangle, so we can assume that the three faces have the same dimensions. Each of those face triangles has an area of ...
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2(3 yd)(2 yd) = 3 yd²
The base area is computed using the same formula and the given height:
A = 1/2(3 yd)(2.6 yd) = 3.9 yd²
Then the total surface area is that of the base and the three faces:
SA = (3.9 yd²) + 3(3 yd²) = 12.9 yd² . . . total surface area
