Answer:

y = 8
RS = 51
ST = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) You use the fact that the lengths RS and ST total the length RT.

RS +ST = RT

(6y+3) +(3y+5) = 80 . . . . . substitute the given values

9y +8 = 80 . . . . . . . . . . . . .simplify

9y = 72 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 8

72/9 = y = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of y

___

(b) Now, the value of y can be substituted into the expressions for RS and ST to find their lengths.

RS = 6y +3 = 6·8 +3

RS = 51

ST = 3y +5 = 3·8 +5

ST = 29

___

Check

RS +ST = 51 +29 = 80 = RT . . . . the numbers check OK

V=124cm^3.
h=12cm
V=Bh
P=r^2π+rsπ:
B=r^2π
B=V/h=124/12=10,3cm^2
r^2=B/π
r=√(B/π)=1,81 cm
S=√(r^2+h^2)=√(12^2+1.81^2)=√(144+3,28)=12,13 cm
P=r^2π+rSπ=3,28*3,14+1,81*12,13*3,14=10,29+68,93=79,22 cm^2
