Answer:

<u>The correct answer is A. 60 square feet.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the data provided to us for solving the question:

The gazebo in Mr. Chang's backyard, according to the figure, is a square pyramid because its base is a square of 6 feet as length of its sides.

Length of the sides of the base = 6 feet

Slant length = 5 feet

Height = 4 feet

2. How much cloth, in square feet, will Mr. Chang need, assuming he does not need to replace the cloth at the bottom of the figure?

Area of a square pyramid = Base area + 1/2 Perimeter * Slant length

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Area of a square pyramid = 6 * 6 + 1/2 (6 + 6 + 6 + 6) * 5

Area of a square pyramid = 36 + 1/2 (24) * 5

Area of a square pyramid = 36 + 12 * 5

Area of a square pyramid = 36 + 60

Area of a square pyramid = 96 feet ²

3. But remember than Mr. Chang doesn't need to replace the cloth at the bottom of the gazebo.

So we need to subtract the area of the base to the area of the square pyramid:

Area of the square pyramid - area of the base

Area of the base = 6 * 6 = 36 feet ²

96 feet ² - 36 feet ² = 60 feet ²

<u>The correct answer is A. 60 square feet.</u>

The product of four less than a number and nine is fifteen <br> *Need help on this please
densk [106]

Answer:

The easiest way is to determine what number times 9 equals 15.

9x = 15

x = 15 / 9   = 5/3

The original number is 4 + 5/3 = 5 (2/3)

Then we look at the problem again,

5 and (2/3) minus 4 = 5/3 and

5/3 * 9 = 45/3 = 9

What is the solution to this system of equations?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

(x,y) = (3, 1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

This pair of linear equations may be solved simultaneously by using the elimination method. This will involve ensuring that the coefficient of one of the unknown variables is the same in both equations..

To solve this, add the equations;

x + 2x + 2y - 2y = 4 + 5

3x = 9

x = 3

substitute the value of x into the first equation,

3 + 2y = 4

2y = 4 -3

2y = 1

y = 1/2
