Answer:
Sum of 2 3/8 + 5 1/4 = 7 5/8
 
        
             
        
        
        
Plug 4 in for every x
(3*4)-4=8
(4^2)-1=15 [(4^2) is 4*4]
(2*(4^2))-15= 15 [because of PEMDAS the exponent comes first and then multiply by 2 then subtract]
Perimeter is the sum of the lengths so add up all the sides from above
8+15+15=38
        
             
        
        
        
To convert yards to feet, you would multiply it by 3. So, since there the pipe is 2 yards long, you could multiply 2*3 to get 6 feet. Then you can convert feet to inches by multiplying it by 12. 6*12 is equal to 72, so 2 yards is equal to 72 inches. Lastly, you can subtract 18 from 72, to get 54, and 54 inches would be your final answer.
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
192 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the surface area of a shape, you must find the area of each side and add them together. the base of this shape is a rectangle with a length of 11ft and a height of 3ft; to calculate the area of a rectangle, you multiply the length by the height. 3*11 is 33, so the base of this prism has an area of 33ft^2. since this is a prism, we know that the side parallel to the base are the same shape, so they both have an area of 33ft^2. 33*2= 66. the two other large sides have a height of 4.5 and a length of 11; 4.5*11 is 49.5, there are two shapes with these dimensions, so 49.5*2=99. finally, the two shapes on either end of the prism have a height of 4.5 and a length of 3. 4.5*3= an area of 13.5, two of them, so 13.5*2=27. now you just add all of these numbers together: 66+99+27=192.
 
        
             
        
        
        
So, difference as in subtract? so, if it is, it would be 15. if it means percent difference, it's about 60%.
