Since it is about only the outer part of the aquarium which is made of glasses we need to calculate the total surface area.

Surface area of the base = 4*3 = 12 square feet

Surface area of the shorter length of wall = 3*2 = 6 square feet
since it has another wall in opposite side. It has to be multiplied with 2.
6*2 = 12 square feet

Surface area of the longer length of wall = 4*2 = 8 square feet
since it has another wall in opposite side. It has to be multiplied with 2.
8*2 = 16 square feet

Therefore the total surface area that need to be covered with glasses
12+12+16 = 40 square feet

HELP!!!!
Nonamiya [84]
Your answer is E. $25.

First let under 12 = u, over 12 = o, and adults = a.
We can now write the equations:

2u + 3a + 3o = 174
4u + 2a = 122
a + o = 46

Because we know that a + o = 46, and 3a + 3o is in the first equation, we can multiply 46 by 3 to get what 3a + 3o equals. This makes 138.
Now we can substitute 138 into the first equation to get 2u + 138 = 174
2u = 36
u = 18

Now that we know what u equals, we can substitute it in to the second equation to get:
4(18) + 2a = 122
72 + 2a = 122
2a = 50
a = $25

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

2x+3y=15 x+y=6 find values for x and y
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

  (x, y) = (3, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract double the second equation from the first.

  (2x +3y) -2(x +y) = (15) -2(6)

  y = 3 . . . . . . . . simplify

Use the second equation to find x.

  x = 6 -y = 6 -3 = 3

The values of x and y are both 3.
