A. The figure is a triangular pyramid. You can findits surface area by adding up the area of the three faces of the triangle and the area of the base. A derived formula also is used where the SA is equal to 12 times the perimeter of base times the slant height, added to that is the area of the base. The area of the square base is s^2. Its perimeter is 4s.
SA of Pyramid = 12*P*l + s^2
SA of Pyramid = 12*4s*l + 16^2
SA of Pyramid = 12*4(16)*(17) + (16)^2
SA of Pyramid = 11,008 square inches
b.) The formula for the SA of a cone is:
SA of cone = πr[r+√(h^2+r^2)]
SA of cone = π(3)[(3+√(8^2+3^2)]
SA of cone = 108.8 square inches

Answer:
450 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s = number of students
1/2 are Americans 1/2s are Americans
s -1/2s = number of students left
1/2 s = number of students left
1/3 of the students left are Europeans
1/3 (1/2s) = 1/6s are Europeans
The rest are Australians = 150
Students = Americans + Europeans + Australians
s = 1/2s + 1/6s + 150
Combine like terms
s = 1/2*3/3 *s + 1/6s +150
s = 3/6s + 1/6s +150
s = 4/6s + 150
Subtract 4/6s from each side
s -4/6s = 150
6/6s - 4/6s = 150
2/6s = 150
1/3s = 150
Multiply each side by 3
3* 1/3s = 150*3
s = 450
There are 450 students
The answer is 864 cubic meters
