Answer:
Table C is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we need to be familiar with the formula for the surface area of a cone:

We are given the length of a side and the diameter, to calculate the radius divide the diameter in half:

To calculate the height of the cone, we must use the Pythagorean Theorem:

We can treat the side length as the hypotenuse
, the radius as the base
, and solve for height
. Set the expression up like this:

Now we can plug into our original formula:

Given:
The given expression is:

To find:
Part A: The expression by factoring out the greatest common factor.
Part B: Factor the entire expression completely.
Solution:
Part A:
We have,

Taking out the highest common factor 3y, we get

Therefore, the required expression is
.
Part B:
From part A, we have,

By grouping method, we get


Therefore, the required factored form of the given expression is
.
