Answer: 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation: If 5 elves can make 5 dolls in 5 minutes then an elf can make 5 dolls in twice the time it would take 5 elves to do it which is 25 minutes.

This means it takes an elf 25/5 = 5 minutes to make one doll

One elf can make 100 dolls in 100 x 5 = 500 minutes

Then it will take 100 elves 500/100 = 5 minutes to make 100 dolls.

NOTE: This method of solving is known as the unitary method. Be careful to note that it won't take 100 elves a hundred minutes to make 100 dolls because it's a concerted effort (each of the 100 elves is making 1 doll in the same time duration (5 minutes))

5 elves*5 minutes=5 dolls
1 elf *5 minutes=1 doll

so it takes 5 minutes for an elf to make doll

100 elves*100 minutes/5=100*20=2000 dolls in 100 minutes by 100 elves

Mr. Suárez wants to paint his storage shed. He needs to calculate the lateral surface area of the shed so that he will know how
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Lateral surface area of the storage shed = 336 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture is the complete question.

The shed is in the shape of a rectangular prism. The lateral surface area of the storage shed can be calculated below. The lateral area is the sides of the prism.

lateral area of a rectangular prism = 2h (l + w)

where

l = length

h = height

w = width

h = 8 ft

l = 14 ft

w = 7 ft

lateral area of a rectangular prism = 2h (l + w)

lateral area of a rectangular prism = 2 × 8 × (14 + 7)

lateral area of a rectangular prism = 16 (21)

lateral area of a rectangular prism = 336 ft²

Lateral surface area of the storage shed = 336 ft²

I need help with this ​
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to converse of the Pythagorean Theorem, that if the square of the third side (longest side) of a triangle equals the sum of the other two shorter sides, therefore, the triangle formed must be a right triangle.

From the side lengths given, the following satisfies the Pythagorean triple:

5² + 12² = 13².

Therefore, the procedure to use to confirm the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem would be to draw the two shortest side, 5 cm and 12 cm, so that a right angle will be between them. The side measuring 13 cm should therefore fit in to form a right triangle.
