8-2.5 is 5.5 because when you subtract 2 from 6 you get 6b and when you subtract .5 from 6 you get 5.5
The picture in the attached figure
we know that
surface area=2*area of the base+perimeter*height
area of the base=area of the triangle
area of the base=3*4/2----> 6 cm²
perimeter of the base=perimeter of triangle
perimeter=3+4+5----> 12 cm
height=x cm
surface area=2*6+12*x
surface area=204 cm²
12+12*x=204
12*x=204-12
12*x=192
x=192/12
x=16 cm
the answer is16 cm
Given the equation
.
When x is maximum, we have
. Hence 
The maximum temperature is 
When x is minimum, we have
. Hence 
The minimum temperature is 
-10x + 1.5 because you get rid of the parenthesis so -2 times 5 is -10 ( -10x ) and then -2 times -0.75 equals positive 1.5 due to two negatives canceling out to positive hope this helped!
