Answer:

62 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangular prism is the sum of the areas of its six faces. Opposite faces have the same area, so it is the sum of 3 pairs of faces. The area of one face of each pair is the product of the dimensions of that face. Those three areas are ...

• L·W

• W·H

• H·L

so the total surface area is ...

A = 2(LW +WH +HL)

For hand calculation, this can be simplified a bit to ...

A = 2(LW +H(L+W)) . . . . . requires one less multiplication

For your prism, the area is ...

A = 2(5·2 + 3(5+2)) = 2(10 +21) = 62 . . . square units

In New York State, the minimum wage has grownexponentially. In 1966, the minimum wage was$1.25 an hour and in 2015, it was $8.75

Alona [7]

The Solution.

In 1966, which is the initial year(t); t = 0, and minimum wage(y), y = $1.25

Similarly.

In 2015, t = 49 years , (that is, 1966 to 2015), and y = $8.75

The rate of growth to the nearest percent is

$\text{Rate of growth =}\frac{y_2-y_1}{t_2-t_1}\times100$ $\begin{gathered} \text{Where y}_2=8.75,t_2=49\text{ years} \\ y_1=\text{ \$1.25},t_1=0 \end{gathered}$

Substituting into the formula above, we get

$\text{Rate of growth =}\frac{8.75-1.25}{49-0}\times100$ $\text{Rate of growth = }\frac{7.5}{49}\times100=15.31\approx15\text{ \%}$

Hence, the correct answer is 15%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(f - g)(x)

= f(x) - g(x)

= 3x² + 4x - 6 - (6x³ - 5x² - 2) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= 3x² + 4x - 6 - 6x³ + 5x² + 2 ← collect like terms

= - 6x³ + 8x² + 4x - 4
