Answer:

NO

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area = 2lw+ 2 lh + 2 hw  Where h = height, w= width and l = length

We will double w

SA becomes 2l(2w) + 2lh + 2h(2w)

 SA = 4lw + 2lh + 4lw

Doubling the SA

2SA = 2(2lw+ 2 lh + 2 hw)

        = 4lw + 4lh +4 hw

2SA =? SA for 2w

4lw + 4lh +4 hw =   4lw + 2lh + 4lw

This is not the same

Doubling one dimension does not double the surface area

What is the slope of the line that passes through the poiņts (-10, 4) and (-10,8)?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Slope is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is calculated by \frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2} so now you put the points (-10,4) and (-10,8) into that.

Since both x values are the same you can tell that the line is a vertial line meaning the slope is undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

4x° +20°= 180° (adj. ∠s on a str. line)

<em>Bringing</em><em> </em><em>constants</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>side</em><em>:</em>

4x°= 180° -20°

<em>Simplify</em><em>:</em>

4x°= 160°
