Answer:

The number of trucks and sedans can be

(0 trucks ,26 sedans)

(8 trucks ,21 sedans)

(24 trucks ,11 sedans)

(25 trucks ,1 sedans)

(32 trucks ,6 sedans)

(16 trucks ,16 sedans)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The  cost for trucks =$5

The cost for sedans  =$8

The total amount collected = $208

To Find:

Number of trucks and sedans passed through the toll booth =?

Solution:

Let the number of trucks be x and the number of sedans be y

Then

5x + 8y = 208-------------------------------(1)

By Trail and error method

5(0) + 8(26) = 208

5(8) + 8(21) = 208

5(24) +8(11) =208

5(25) + 8(1) = 208

5(32) + 8(6) =208

5(16) + 8(16) = 208

Find the surface area of the prism.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

400cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area of a prism includes the area of the top and bottom triangle sides of the prism, plus the area of all 3 rectangular sides.

Base & Bottom triangle area: 2 x [(8 x 15)/2] = 120cm²

Side triangle area: 17 x 7 + 8 x 7 + 15 x 7 = 280cm²

Total surface area = 280 + 120 = 400cm²
