Answer:

a. 84 cm² b. The area of the polyhedron is found by finding the sum of the areas of each individual shape.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The area of the polyhedron is gotten by finding the area of each individual shape.

The area of the left rectangle with sides 6 by 4 is 6 cm × 4 cm = 24 cm²

The area of the middle rectangle with sides 6 by 5 is 6 cm × 5 cm = 30 cm²

The area of the right rectangle with sides 6 by 3 is 6 cm × 3 cm = 18 cm²

The area of the triangle on the left rectangle is found using heron's formula where area A = √[s(s -a)(s -b)(s -c) where s = (a + b + c)/2 and a, b and c are the sides of the rectangle.

Since the rectangle has sides 4, 3 and 5, a = 4, b = 3 and c = 5

So, s = (a + b + c)/2 = s = (4 + 3 + 5)/2 = 12/2 = 6

A = √[s(s -a)(s -b)(s -c)

= √[6(6 - 4)(6 - 3)(6 - 5)

= √[6(2)(3)(1)

= √36

= 6 cm²

The area of the triangle on the right rectangle is found using heron's formula where area A = √[s(s -a)(s -b)(s -c) where s = (a + b + c)/2 and a, b and c are the sides of the rectangle.

Since the rectangle has sides 3, 4 and 5, a = 3, b = 4 and c = 5

So, s = (a + b + c)/2 = s = (3 + 4 + 5)/2 = 12/2 = 6

A = √[s(s -a)(s -b)(s -c)]

= √[6(6 - 3)(6 - 4)(6 - 5)]

= √[6(3)(2)(1)

= √36

= 6 cm²

The surface area of the polyhedron is the sum of all the areas. So, A = 24 cm² + 30 cm² + 18 cm² + 6 cm² + 6 cm² = 84 cm²

b. Explain your reasoning

The area of the polyhedron is found by finding the sum of the areas of each individual shape.

Answer:

1. -5.5   2. 5   3.  5, 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For #1 just look at what point it would be towards the y- axis.

For #2 you want to kinda estimate what it would be between.

And lastly #3 they want to see the exact coordinates for Q so, look at the x axis first they the y axis. Remember Run then Jump

The hard drive on your computer has a capacity of 160 gigabytes (GB). You have used 122 GB. You want to save some home videos to
QveST [7]

Capacity of the hard drive = 160 GB.

Used space = 122 GB.

Free space = 160 - 122 = 38 GB.

So, the size of the home video collection should be less than or equal to 38 GB.

If u is the amount of space used, then, u ≤ 38

If a is the amount of space available, then a = 38 - u.

What is the remainder of 10^2017 divided by 1001?
pashok25 [27]
Note: When I use the double equal sign, I mean the triple bar used with modular arithmetic

10^3 = 1000 == -1 (mod 1001)
10^3 == -1 (mod 1001)
(10^3)^672 == (-1)^672 (mod 1001)
(10^(3*672) == 1 (mod 1001)
10^2016 == 1 (mod 1001)
10*10^2016 == 10*1 (mod 1001)
10^2017 == 10 (mod 1001)

Final Answer: 10
