2x=-34

x=-34/2

x=-17

y=-17+20

Quincy says that 3 is a good estimate for 3.4 X 0.09, is he correct? Why?
lord [1]
<span>Quincy says that 3 is a good estimate for 3.4 X 0.09, is she correct? Why?
When we say estimates meaning it is not the exact answer but close to what is the exact.
Now, if Quincy estimated 3 as the product of 3.4 * .09, then let’s check if she has the correct estimates.
=> 3.4 estimates is 3
=> 0.09 estimates is 0.1
Now the answer is 0.3 and not 3.
Thus, Quincy’s estimate is wrong.</span>

What is the total surface area of the solid?
Umnica [9.8K]
We’re going to use the formula for area of a rectangle, which is length x width. We are also going to use the formula for area of a triangle which is 1/2 x base x height.

Let’s start with the rectangle under the triangle ends of the roof. They are 11mm wide, 10mm high, and there are two of them.

11 x 10 x 2 = 220

Then the other sides that are 16 x 10. There are 2 of them.
16 x 10 x 2 = 320

Then the rectangular pieces of roof, 9.7 x 16, and there are 2 of them.

9.7 x 16 x 2 = 310.4

Lastly, the triangle pieces of roof. (1/2)(base)(height), but there are 2 of them
1/2 x 11 x 8 x 2 = 88

Add up all the parts:
220 + 320 + 310.4 + 88 = 938.4 mm
