Answer:

2a + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

use the distributive property:

4a + 20- 2a + 10

then rearrange for like terms

4a - 2a + 20 + 10

then add it up

2a + 30

Answer:

2a + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

break it down so it is 4(a+5)

then work out -2(a-5)

so 4 x a then 4 x 5 which gives 4a + 20

then -2 x a then -2 x -5 which gives -2a + 10

then when you have 4a + 20 -2a + 10

do 4a - 2a which is 2a

do 20 + 10 which is 30

so the answer comes to 2a + 30

if anything doesnt seem right just comment and i will correct

hope this helps :)

A special box designed to hold an antique artifact is shaped like a triangular prism. The surface area of the box is 421.2 squar

Oksanka [162]

The area of the base is:
A = root ((s-a) * (s-b) * (s-c) * (s))
Where,
a, b, c: sides of the triangle
s = (a + b + c) / 2
We have then:
s = (9 + 9 + 9) / 2
s = 13.5
A = root ((13.5-9) * (13.5-9) * (13.5-9) * (13.5))
A = 35.07
Then, the surface area of the prism is:
S.A = 2 * A + 9h + 9h + 9h
Where,
h: height of the prism:
Substituting values:
421.2 = 2 * (35.07) + 9h + 9h + 9h
Clearing h:
27h = (421.2 - 2 * (35.07))
h = (421.2 - 2 * (35.07)) / (27)
h = 13
Answer:
the height of the box is:
h = 13 inches

Answer: The answers are given below.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to factorise some quadratic expressions.

We will be using the following factorisation formula:

$x^2+ax+bx+ab=(x+a)(x+b).$
