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.

How does adding the log together automatically mean that it is a factorial?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: The answer is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given an equality involving logarithm and we are to show the implication of L.H.S. to R.H.S.

We will be using the following two properties of logarithm:

(i)~\log_ba=\dfrac{1}{\log_ab},\\\\\\(ii)~log_ab+\log_ac=\log_a(bc).

The proof is as follows:

L.H.S.\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{\log_2N}+\dfrac{1}{\log_3N}+\dfrac{1}{\log_4N}+\cdots+\dfrac{1}{\log_{100}N}\\\\\\=\log_N2+\logN3+\log_N4+\cdots+\log_N100\\\\=\log_N\{2.3.4...100\}\\\\=\log_N\{1.2.3.4...100\}\\\\=\log_N{100!}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{\log_{100!}N}\\\\=R.H.S.

Hence proved.

11 + 5 + 22 × 12 − 10
Masteriza [31]
Follow PEMDAS

22 x 12 = 264

11 + 5 = 16

264 + 16 = 280

280 - 10 = 270

270 is your answer

Suppose that 3 is a factor of a, a is a divisor of 12, and a is positive. What is the number of possible values of a?
Zina [86]
Answer: the number of possible values of a are 3 and 6

Explanation:
Since a is a divisor of 12
Then let’s see what are the divisor for 12
12= 6 x 2
12= 3 x 4
And we know that 3 is a factor of a
So if a was 3 then 3/3 is exactly 1
And if a was 6 then 6/3 is exactly 2 with no remainder

And 3 and 6 are also the divisor of 12
12/6=2
12/3=4
So a should be 3 and 6
