Jared has four pieces of rope that are each 12.75 feet long. What is the total length of rope he has

How do you find the surface area for this shape?

fgiga [73]

Answer:

total area is the total of the areas of each of the rectangular surfaces
67 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the surface areas of each of the 6 faces.

There are two top/bottom faces with the same area, two left/right faces with the same area, and two front/back faces with the same area. So you only need to figure the areas for 3 faces, then multiply that sum by 2. Of course the area of each rectangle is the product of its length and width. For length, width, and height dimensions L, W, and H, the total area is ...

A = 2(LW +WH +LH)

= 2(LW +H(L+W)) . . . . . I like this form because there's one less multiplication

= 2(5·4 + 1.5(5+4)) = 2(20 +13.5)

A = 67 . . . units²

Comment on dimensions

It does not matter which number you use for length, width, or height. The problem is symmetrical that way, so any of the dimensions can be called any of those things. You need to use the same number consistently for height (for example) once you have made the choice of which is which.

Do the phrases 6 less a number y and 6 less than a number y mean the same thing? Explain. A. No, they do not both mean the same

Yuri [45]

Answer:

B. Yes, they both mean the same thing. They can also both be represented by the expression y - 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Phrase 1: 6 less a number y

Phrase 2: 6 less than a number y

Mathematically,

Phrase 1 can be represented as follows;

$y - 6$

Mathematically,

Phrase 2 can be represented as follows;

$y - 6$

Since the representation of both phrases are the same, then option B answers the question.

When the members of a family discussed where their annual reunion should take place, they found that out of all the family mem

Doss [256]

Answer:

The total number of family members is 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must build the Venn's Diagram of these sets.

I am going to say that:

-The set A represents those that would not go to a park.

-The set B represents those who would not go to a beach.

-The set C represents those who would not go to the family cottage.

The value d represents those who would go to all three places.

We have that:

$A = a + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

In which a are those that would only not go to a park, $A \cap B$ are those who would not got to a park or to the beach, $A \cap C$ are those who would not go to a park or to the famili cottage. And $A \cap B \cap C$ are those that would not go to any of these places.

By the same logic, we have:

$B = b + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$C = c + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

This diagram has the following values:

$a,b,c,d,(A \cap B), (A \cap C), (B \cap C), (A \cap B \cap C)$

The total number of family members is the sum of all these values:

$T = a + b + c + d + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

We start finding the values from the intersection of the three sets

5 would not go to a park or a beach or to the family cottage.

This means that $A \cap B \cap C = 5$

1 would go to all three places. This means that $d = 1$ .

8 would go to neither a park nor the family cottage

This means that:

$A \cap C + (A \cap B \cap C) = 8$

$A \cap C = 3$

8 would go to neither a beach nor the family cottage

$B \cap C + (A \cap B \cap C) = 8$

$B \cap C = 3$

7 would go to neither a park nor a beach

$A \cap B + (A \cap B \cap C) = 7$

$A \cap B = 2$

15 would not go to the family cottage

$C = 15$

$C = c + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$15 = c + 3 + 3 + 5$

$c = 4$

12 would not go to a beach

$B = 12$

$B = b + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$12 = b + 3 + 2 + 5$

$b = 2$

11 would not go to a park

$A = 11$

$A = a + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$11 = a + 2 + 3 + 5$

$a = 1$

Now, we can find the total number of family members.

$T = a + b + c + d + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)$

$T = 1 + 2 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 5$

$T = 21$

The total number of family members is 21.
