What is the surface area of the square pyramid represented by the net? Enter your answer in the box. m²
Alborosie

Answer:

1.75 meters² or 175 centimeters²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find Area of the Base.

  • Base is a square with dimensions of 7cm by 7cm
  • 7*7
  • 49 cm²

Step 2: Find the Area of the Triangles.

  • Each triangle has a base of 7cm and a height of 9cm.
  • 7 x 9 = 63, and 63/2 = 31.5
  • 31.5 x 4 = 126 cm²

Step 3: Add the areas together.

  • 49+126
  • 175 cm²

Thus, the surface area is 1.75 m^2 or 175 cm^2.

A number doubled and has four added to it. The result is divided by three and then added to the product of the original number a
IrinaK [193]
X= a number

(2x+4)/3 + (x+2)= 20
Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate the fraction
(3/1)((2x+4)/3) + (3)(x+2)= (3)(20)
2x+4+3x+6= 60
5x+10=60
Subtract 10 from both sides
5x=50
divide both sides by 5
x=10

Check:
Substitute answer in original equation
(2x+4)/3 + (x+2)= 20
(2(10)+4)/3+(10+2)= 20
(20+4)/3+12= 20
24/3+12= 20
8+12= 20
20=20

Hope this helps! :)
