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>

A motorcyclist leaves City A and rides at a constant speed towards City B, which is 225 km away. After 1.5 hours, the motorcycli
rewona [7]

Answer:

50 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

OK, this is how I solved this problem.

Let r = original rate of speed

     t = time after the stop to finish the trip

Time for trip without stopping is 225/r

(1)     1.5 + .5 + t = 225/r      This is a time equation

(2)    1.5r + t(r + 10) = 225     This is a distance equation

(1)       2 + t = 225/r            (2)      1.5r + tr + 10t = 225

         2r + tr = 225

                tr = 225 - 2r                 1.5r + 225 - 2r + 10(225/r - 2) = 225

                t = 225/r - 2

                                                   -.5r + 225 + 2250/r - 20 = 225

                                                     -5r + 2250 + 22500/r - 200 = 2250

                                                     -5r^2 + 2250r + 22500 - 200r = 2250r

                                                       5r^2 + 200r - 22500 = 0

                                                       5(r^ + 40r - 4500) = 0

                                                           5(r - 50)(r + 90) = 0

                                                                 r = 50   or    r = -90

The rate cannot be negative, so the original speed 50 km/hr

This not an easy problem and I hope you were able to follow my work

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Ooh man, this was back in geometry I think, I think the answer is 4 if my calculations are correct.

i think the bigger side is twice the size of the smaller side, so 2 times 8 is 16,

16 = 5x - 4

x = 4
