The first step is to find the relationship between the square base and the surface area.

Surface area (SA) = area of the square (SS) + area of triangles.4(AT) 

Thus we can conclude area of triangles 4(AT) = SA - SS = 864 - (18*18)

4(AT) = 864 - 324 = 540

Each triangle = 540/4 = 135 square in.

An area of one triangle (AT)= (base* slant height)/2

The base = 18 in.

<span>slant height = 2(AT)/base = 2(135)/18 = 15</span>

60 pts! <br><br>2x + 34 = 4(x + 5)<br><br>solve the equation for x. ​
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

expand 4(x+5): 4x+20

2x+34=4x+20

subtract 34 from both sides

2x+34-34=4x+20-34

2x=4x-14

subtract 4x from both sides

2x-4x=4x-14-4x

-2x=-14

divide both sides by -2

-2x/-2=-14/-2

x=7

How to write (0,8] as an inequality
larisa86 [58]
Answer: 0 \ \textless \  x \le 8

What is given to you is interval notation. We have the interval start at 0 and end at 8. The value 0 is not included in the interval as indicated by the parenthesis. So we go with a "less than" sign (instead of a "less than or equal to" sign)

The value 8 is included since a square bracket is used here. The use of "or equal to" is needed to make sure the endpoint 8 is included.

So x can be any number between 0 and 8. It can't be 0 but it can be 8.

Yes it is because 4+4=8 and 8 is larger than 7
