Area=1/2 times base times height
note:bh=base times height

a=1/2bh
b=width

h=-4+2w
h=2w-4
subsitute
a=1/2w(2w-4)
a=1/2(2s^2-4w)
a=w^2-2w
a=63
63=w^2-2w
subtract 63 from both sdies
0=w^2-2w-63
factor
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -63 and add to get -2
the numbers are -9 and 7
so
0=(w-9)(w+7)
if xy=0 then x and/or y=0

so
w-9=0
w+7=0

solve each
w-9=0
add 9 to both sdies
w=9

w+7=0
subtract 7 from both sides
w=-7
width cannot be negative so this can be discarded

width=9

subsitute
l=2w-4
l=2(9)-4
l=18-4
l=14


legnth=14 in
width/base=9 in

How do I find the correct slope on a graph?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

To find the slope of a line from a graph, first choose 2 points along the line and write down the X and Y coordinates for each. Next, find the rise by taking the difference between the 2 Y coordinates. If the line slopes up as it moves to the right, the rise will be positive. If it slopes down, the rise will be negative.

What is the total surface area of the rectangular pyramid whose net is shown?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

95 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area of the rectangular pyramid = 4(area of triangle) + area of rectangle

Area of triangle = ½*base*height

base = 5 in.

height = 7 in.

Area of triangle = ½*5*7 = 17.5 in.²

Area of rectangle = Length*width = 5*5 = 25 in.²

Plug in the values

Total surface area of the rectangular pyramid = 4(17.5) + 25

= 95 in.²
