Answer: Choice C) 124 square cm

------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

Let's calculate the area of the trapezoid shown
b1 and b2 are the parallel bases; h is the height of the 2D trapezoid
b1 = 2
b2 = 5
h = 1.5

A = h*(b1+b2)/2
A = 1.5*(2+5)/2
A = 1.5*7/2
A = 10.5/2
A = 5.25
The area of one 2D trapezoid is 5.25 sq cm
There are two of these trapezoids that form the base faces of the trapezoidal prism. So the total base area is 2*5.25 = 10.5 sq cm
Keep this value (10.5) in mind. We'll use it later.

------------

Now onto the lateral surface area (LSA)
It turns out that the formula for the LSA is
LSA = p*d
where 
p = perimeter of the trapezoid shown
d = depth or height of the 3D trapezoid (I'm not using h as it was used earlier)
This formula works for any polygonal base. It doesn't have to be a trapezoid.

In this case the perimeter is,
p = 1.7+2+2.65+5
p = 11.35

So
LSA = p*d
LSA = 11.35*10
LSA = 113.5

Add this LSA to the base area found earlier
10.5+113.5 = 124

The total surface area is 124 square cm

Pls help for this pre calc question 25 points rewarded!
Temka [501]

Let's check the dot product .

v.w = 5(4)-2(10) = 20 -20 =0

So the dot product is not 20 . And since the dot product is zero, so they are perpendicular.

And the y component of w is 10.

So correct options are first and third .

1. In algebra, like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers.

2. What is combining like terms? We call terms "like terms" if they have the same variable part.

3. Polynomials form a system similar to the system of integers, in that polynomials are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication. CLOSURE: Polynomials will be closed under an operation if the operation produces another polynomial. ... Polynomials are closed under subtraction.

Hope this helps

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

option A

Step-by-step explanation:

the statement tell us that she slides the triangle 2 units down, so the vertical axis is the one that we are going to modify

we have the points: (1,2), (3,3) and (4,1)

so to these points we subtract "2" to the variable Y

I mean:

(1,2):   2-2=0

(3,3):    3-2=1

(4,1):    1-2=-1

finally we have:

(1,0), (3,1) and (4,-1)
