Step-by-step explanation:
so, you got the volume but don't know how to find the surface area ? that is strange for me. what's the problem ?
the surface of a cube or rectangular prism consists of 6 sides that split (for a rectangular prism) into 3 pairs of equal sides :
top and bottom
left and right
front and back
all we need to do is calculate the areas of these 6 rectangles and add them up. that's it.
in our case
top and bottom : 5×4 × 2 = 20×2 = 40 in²
left and right : 4×4 × 2 = 16×2 = 32 in²
front and back : 5×4 × 2 = 40 in²
so, in total, the whole surface area of the prism is
40 + 32 + 40 = 112 in²
5(x + 27) >= 6(x + 26)
5x + 135 >= 6x + 156
-x >= 21
x <= -21
Answer: Choice B.
If Samantha's backyard has an area of 100 square feet, and you need to know how much fencing to enclose the garden, you know you are looking for the parameter of the garden. To fine the parameter you have to know the length of the sides. Area of a square is length times width and length and width are the same value. So what you know the square-root of 100 is the value of each side. So each side of the garden is 10 feet long. To find parameter all you do is add up all four sides. 10+10+10+10 = 40 feet need to enclose the flower garden.<span />
