8+7=15
75 divided by 15 = 5
Each unit =5
8 x 5 = 40, so Debbie gets 40 smarties
7 x 5 = 35, so Dave gets 35 smarties.

Find the surface area of the right prism. Round to the nearest whole number.

andriy [413]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{S.A.=96\ cm^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

(1) two trapezoids with bases b₁ = 7cm and b₂ = 5cm and the height h = 4cm

(2) three rectangles 3 cm × 7 cm, 3 cm × 4 cm and 3 cm × 5 cm.

The formula of an area of a trapezoid:

$A=\dfrac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot h$

Substitute:

$A=\dfrac{7+5}{2}\cdot4=24\ cm^2$

Calculate the areas of the rectangles:

$A_1=(3)(7)=21\ cm^2\\\\A_2=(3)(4)=12\ cm^2\\\\A_3=(3)(5)=15\ cm^2$

The Surface Area:

$S.A.=(2)(24)+21+12+15=96\ cm^2$

If cosa=1/2(a+1/a), verify that. cos2a=1/2(a²+1/a²)

Alborosie

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

using the identity

cos2a = 2cos²a - 1 , then

cos2a

= 2[ $\frac{1}{2}$ (a + $\frac{1}{a}$ ) ]² - 1

= 2 [ $\frac{1}{4}$ (a² + $\frac{1}{a^2}$ + 2) ] - 1

= $\frac{1}{2}$ (a² + $\frac{1}{a^2}$ ) + 1 - 1

= $\frac{1}{2}$ (a² + $\frac{1}{a^2}$ ) ← thus verified
