Answer:

40 ft  

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Data: </em>

(1) P = 120 ft

(2) l = 2w

<em>Calculations: </em>

(3)  P = 2l + 2w           Substitute (1) and (2) into (3)

  120 = 2(2w) + 2w     Multiply

  120 = 4w +2w           Combine like terms

  120 = 6w                   Divide by 6

(4) w = 20 ft                Substitute (4) into (2)

      l = 2 × 20

      l = 40 ft

<em>Check: </em>

120 = 2×40 + 2×20

120 = 80 + 40

120 = 120

mestny [16]

Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

3 m*\frac{1}{15} *\frac{100 cm}{1 m}

1. Multiply the actual depth my the scale factor of 1/15.

2. Multiply the resulting depth after multiply by the scale factor by the conversion factor of meters to centimeters.

What is the surface area of this rectangular pyramid?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

304m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the surface area of the base by multiplying the length by the width.

(12m) (8m)= 96m^2

Second, find the surface area of the front and back triangles using the formula <em>1/2 (base) (height)</em>. Use the length for the base.

1/2 (12m) (10m)= 60m^2

Next, find the surface area of the side triangles using the formula <em>1/2 (base) (height). </em>Use the width as the base.

1/2 (8m) (11m)= 44m^2

Last, add the surface area of each section. Make sure you add the area of each face.(we only solved for 1 of the front/ back triangles and 1 of the side triangles) To make it easier to understand I wrote out an equation to show how I added the surface areas.

base=a, front/ back triangles= b, side triangles=c

SA= a + 2b +2c  or SA= a +b +b +c +c

Using one of the equations above solve for the total surface area.

SA= (96m^2) + (60m^2) +(60m^2) +(44m^2) +(44m^2)

or

SA= (96m^2) + 2(60m^2) +2(44m^2)

SA=  (96m^2) +(120m^2) +(88m^2)

SA= 304m^2
