We already solve for the B or area of the triangular base which was 5.25cm².
There are 2 triangular faces in the prism so 5.25cm² x 2 = 10.50cm²
There are 3 rectangular face in the prism, we need to get the area of each.
area of a rectangle = length x width
rectangle 1: 5 cm x 4 cm = 20 cm²
same dimension with rectangle 2. so, area is 20 cm² also
rectangle 3: 5 cm x 2.8 cm = 14 cm²
let us all add up the area of each surface.
2 triangle = 10.50 cm²
3 rectangles = 20 cm² + 20 cm² + 14 cm² = 54 cm²
10.50 cm² + 54 cm² = 64.50 cm²
Yea you are right it is right
<span>N + D = 55 coins (1) (N stands for nickels,
5N + 10D = 390 cents (2) D stands for dimes)
Simplify (2) by canceling the factor 5 in both sides:
N + 2D = 78 (3)
Subtract eq(1) from eq(3). You will get
D = 78 - 55 = 23.
Answer. 23 dimes and 55-23 = 32 nickels.
Check. 23*10 + 32*5 = 390 cents</span>
