46.25 according to my calculator
The values of a and b are 4 & 6
Answer in fraction form: x = 55/4
Answer in decimal form: x = 13.75
Both forms are equivalent, but they say it in a slightly different way.
===========================================================
Work Shown:
AC/QY = CD/YW
(x+5)/15 = 5/4
4(x+5) = 15*5
4x+20 = 75
4x = 75-20
4x = 55
x = 55/4
x = 13.75

Explanations:
- The first step is possible because the polygons are similar. Similar figures have their corresponding sides be in the same proportion or ratio. Note how side AC has the double red angle (at point A) and a single red angle (point C). The side QY has the same idea in the same order. This is why AC corresponds to QY. The ratio AC/QY is the same as CD/YW.
- In the second step, I plugged in the expressions that the diagram shows. This is the substitution property.
- On step 3, I cross multiplied. The general format is A/B = C/D cross multiplies to A*D = B*C.
The surface area of the rectangular prism is 52 square feet (
), if the height is 4 feet, width is 3 feet and depth is 2 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given is,
A rectangular prism of
Let, h - height of the rectangular prism
w - Width of the rectangular prism
d - Depth of the rectangular prism
Step:1
From given,
h = 4 feet
w = 3 feet
d = 2 feet
Step:2
Formula to calculate the surface area of the rectangular prism is,

Substitute the values of w,d and h
= 2 [(3×2) + (4×2) + (4×3)]
= 2 (6+8+12)
= 2 × 26
= 52
A = 52 Square feet
Result:
Thus the surface area of the rectangular prism is 52 square feet (
), if the height is 4 feet, width is 3 feet and depth is 2 feet.
Well I don't get what the other parts of the question is asking, but they can make 240 packs of pencils.
