Common means similar/alike in this case. to have the highest common factor, you need it to be common with the two numbers. both numbers are negative, so the highest common factor is also negative.

remember, you aren't multiplying/dividing to get a product or quotient; you'r simply looking for a number.

i hope my explanation helped! x

I’ll give you brainliest for the first person with an answer
raketka [301]

Answer:

1296mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism to the left on top of the box:

Area of square = lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm, then multiply by 2 because 2 of the squares are a part of the surface, giving <u>162mm^2</u>

Area of a rectangle =lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm, then multiply by 2 again, because 2 rectangles are a part of the surface, giving <u>162mm^2</u>

So, the total surface area of the rectangular prism to the left on top, is 324mm^2

Surface Area of the Triangular Prism:

Area of a triangle: 1/2bh, and our base length would be 12, because we have to subtract 9 from 21 since the base length of the triangle isn't stated. Anyways, A = 1/2bh, so A = 1/2(12)(9) = 54mm^2, but multiply by two, so we get <u>108mm^2</u>.

Area of the rectangle: lw, so 15mm * 9mm = <u>135mm^2</u>

So, the total surface area of the triangular prism is 243mm^2

Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism at the bottom:

Area of the long rectangles in front = lw, 21mm * 9mm = 189mm^2, multiply by 2, <u>378mm^2</u>

Area of the rectangles to the side = lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm^2, multiply by 2, <u>162mm^2 </u>

Area of the rectangle at the very bottom = lw, 21mm * 9mm = <u>189mm^2</u>

So, the total surface area of the rectangular prism at the bottom is 729mm^2

Add all the total surface areas of each shape to get the total surface area of the figure:

324mm^2 + 243mm^2 + 729mm^2 = 1296mm^2

The surface area of the figure above is 1296mm^2

A hair dryer has a resistance of 11. 5. What current does it conduct when it is plugged into a wall outlet that provides 120 V?
Nata [24]

The current it conduct when it is plugged into a wall outlet that provides 120 V is 10.4A

<h3>Ohms law</h3>

The current passing through a conductor is proportional to the potential difference. Mathematically;

V = IR
where
V is the voltage = 120V

R is the resistance = 11.5 ohms

Required

Current I

Substitute

I = V/R
I = 120/11.5
I = 10.4A

Hence  the current it conduct when it is plugged into a wall outlet that provides 120 V is 10.4A
