Answer: 152ft^2

The amount of material needed to construct the tent is 152ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of material needed to construct a triangular tent= the surface area of the triangular tent.

S.A = area of the 2 side rectangles + area of the 2 side triangles + area of the base.

S.A = Ab + At + Ar ....1

Area of the base Ab= Length × width = 8×6 = 48ft^2

Area of the two triangles At = 2 × 0.5 × width × height

At = width × height = 6×4 = 24ft^2

Area of the two rectangles Ar = 2 × side measurement × length

Side measurement is given as 5ft.

or it can be calculated using;

Side length can be calculated using Pythagoras theorem.

Examining the figure attached, we can see that;

Side breadth b = √(h^2 + (w/2)^2)

b = √(4^2 + (6/2)^2) = √(16+9) = √25

b = 5ft

Ar = 2×5×8 = 80ft^2

From eqn1, S.A can be solved as;

S.A = 48 + 24 + 80

S.A = 152ft^2

What are the slope, m, and y-intercept, (0,b), of the line described by the equation 3x+6=12
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

slope=3,y-intercept=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the rate of change so It is an independent variable and has an x at the end

The y-intercept is the initial value which is technically the start off and the number 6 seems to be a dependent variable.

If two pounds of meat will serve 5 people how many pounds will be needed to serve 13 people
miv72 [106K]
The answer is 5.2 pounds of meat. To find this just divide the number of people by what the information you have about servings. 13/5=2.6(number of sets), then you multiply that by how many pounds are in each set. 2.6 sets* 2 pounds per set= 5.2 pounds.
I hope this helped!

B because there is only one negative and -63 divided by 7 equals -9. If it were -7 divided by 63 that would give you an answer in decimal form.
