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:

Step-by-step explanation:

"The total number of dollars in fives and tens" tells you that these denominations are being added together.  Because a five dollar bill is worth $5 and a ten dollar bill is worth $10, then the number of $5 bills is represented by 5f and a the number of $10 bills is represented by 10t.  Therefore,

T = 5f + 10t

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST The sequence 7 21 63 189......shows the number of jumping jacks justin did each week, starting with the fir
vovangra [49]

A

this is a geometric sequence since there exists a common ratio r between the terms

r = \frac{21}{7} = \frac{63}{21} = \frac{189}{63} = 3

B

to obtain the next term in the sequence multiply the previous term by 3

a_{n+1} = 3 a_{n} ← recursive rule

C

the n th term of a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a_{1} r^{n-1}

where a_{1} is the first term in the sequence

a_{n} = 7 × 3^{n-1} ← explicit rule

Perfect Pies charges $6 for an apple pie.
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

6 * p ≤ 30

p  ≤ 5

The maximum number of pies she can buy is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p equal the number of pies she will buy

Each pie costs 6 dollars.  She will spend 6 * p

The cost must be less than or equal to 30 dollars

6 * p ≤ 30

To solve divide each side by 6

6 * p/6 ≤ 30/6

p  ≤ 5
