Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of objects with flat surfaces like this is simply the area of each surface added together, so let's get to work.
Both have 6 faces, so we will be adding six values together for each.
Container A:
Hopefully you can imagine the six different faces. It's kinda like a cereal box.
The front and back of a cereal box have the same area, as do the two sides and the top and bottom, so that makes it a little easier.
Front and Back: 28 * 36 = 1008
Sides: 36*6 = 216
Top and Bottom: 6*28 = 168
Let me know if you don't understand how I did any of that. Anyway, since there is a matching face for each we add them all together twice.
1008*2 + 216*2 + 168*2 = 2784 in^2
Container B has a similar setup, I won't write out everything like I did unless you want me to work it out with you.
2(16*12+16*22+22*12) = 1616 in^2
So since Container A has a surface area of 2784 and Container B has a surface area of 1616 it's obvious container A has a larger surface area
5+(-7)+3+(-6)=-5
Answer is zero
Answer:
(8, - 5 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
3x + 4y = 4 → (1)
- x - 3y = 7 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the x- term.
- 3x - 9y = 21 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x, that is
0 - 5y = 25
- 5y = 25 ( divide both sides by - 5 )
y = - 5
Substitute y = - 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting into (1)
3x + 4(- 5) = 4
3x - 20 = 4 ( add 20 to both sides )
3x = 24 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 8
solution is (8, - 5 )
