Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area is the sum of the areas of the faces.

There are 4 faces that are 5 cm wide. Their respective heights (from front, over the top) are ...

  1 cm, 2.5 cm, 2 cm, 2.3 cm

for a total height of 7.8 cm. Thus, those 4 faces have a total area of ...

  (5 cm)(7.8 cm) = 39.0 cm^2

__

The two trapezoidal faces each have bases of length 1 and 2 cm, and a "height" of 2.3 cm. Together, their areas are ...

  A = 2×(1/2)(b1 +b2)h = (b1 +b2)h

  A = (1 cm +2 cm)(2.3 cm) = 6.9 cm^2

__

The surface area of the entire trapezoidal prism is then ...

  total area = base area + lateral area = 6.9 cm^2 +39 cm^2

  total area = 45.9 cm^2

The student's answer of 57.4 cm^2 is not correct. (We don't know where that calculation came from.)

Answer:

I would go with letter F because it's most reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each row has 4 squares.

Since three are circled it is 3/4.

So 3/4 divided by 4 is 3/16.

Answer:

- 5

Step-by-step explanation:

"I am a negative integer greater than -6."

This eliminates any number that is less than -6, as well as any positive number.

0 > x > -6

"I am less than -2."

This narrows down the possible numbers to:

-5, -4, -3.

"I am not equal to -2 + (-1)"

-2 + - 1

-2 - 1

- 3

The number is not '-3'.

"I am not equal to 2 - 6."

2 - 6

- 4

The number is not -4.

Your number should be -5.

Hope this helps.
