The surface area of the prism is equal to the summed up area of the faces of the triangular prism.

The bases of the prism would be triangles with an unknown base, b, and height of 3. The area of the base is calculated through the equation,
          A = bh/2
where b is base and h is height. Substituting the values,
       A = b(3)/2

Since there are two bases, the contribution of the triangles for the surface area is,
   2A = 3b

Next we calculate for the area of the triangle sides with length equal to b (same as the base of the triangle). 
   Area = b(12 km)
There are 3 sides such that the total area becomes,
   Area = 36b

Hence, the surface area is,
    48.735 km² = 3b + (36b)

The value of b from the equation is 1.25 km

<em>ANSWER: 1.25 km</em>

Which is an equivalent form of the expression 1800(1.2)-?
Lelu [443]
You can rewrite this expression as 1800 x (1/1.2)^t

Now you just simplify
= 1800(10/12)^t
= 1800 (5/6)^t

So B is your answer!

What Is the product? 4n/4n-4*n-1/n+1
Serjik [45]

Answer:

n/(n+1) . . . . n ≠ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As written, there is no product. There is ony the sum ...

4\dfrac{n}{4}-4n-\dfrac{1}{n}+1

With appropriate parentheses, this becomes the product of rational functions ...

... (4n)/(4n-4)·(n-1)/(n+1)

=\dfrac{4n(n-1)}{4(n-1)(n+1)}=\dfrac{n}{n+1}

_____

At n=1, the product has a "hole" where the denominator of the original expression is zero, so the expression is undefined. Hence the domain of the product must be restricted to n≠1 (as well as n≠-1).
