PLEASE HELP<br><br> Find the surface area of the triangular prism.
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

139

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find all the faces that you must find the areas of. In this case, you need to find the areas of two triangles and three rectangles.

In this triangular prism, the base is one triangle. If the area of the base is 7.75, we can assume that that holds true for both bases, and multiply 7.75 by 2 in order to find the area of both triangles.

Now find the area of each of the three rectangles by multiplying their individual heights and bases by each other. You should get 38, 47.5, and 38 as the areas of the rectangles.

Now add all the individual area's together. (They're bolded for clarity).

Explain why 1/2 is not equivalent to 2/5.
juin [17]
Find ing the common denominator would make it 10.
for 1/2 to get to 10 you have to multiply by 5
1/2x5= 5/10
then you have to convert 2/5 to get the denominator to be 10
so you multiply 2/5 by 2
2/5x2= 4/10
5/10 is greater than 4/10

3x - y = 0<br> 2x - y = 1
9966 [12]
Answer: See below

Explanation:
Solve this system of equation using elimination method:

3x - y = 0
2x - y = 1
________
3x - y = 0
-1(2x - y = 1)
_________
3x - y = 0
-2x + y = -1
_________
X = -1

We know that x = -1 now let’s plug it in the one of the equation to find y:

2x - y = 1
2(-1) - y = 1
-2 - y = 1
-y = 3
y = -3

Find the value of X and the missing angle
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

x = 10

missing angle = 83°

Step-by-step explanation:

These are supplementary angles meaning they have a sum of 180°.

8x + 3 + 97 = 180

8x + 100 = 180

8x + 100 - 100 = 180 - 100

8x = 80

x = 10

Substitute the value for the variable.

8(10) + 3

80 + 3

83
