An artist designed a metal structure in the shape of a pyramid with dimensions as shown. A pyramid has a square base with side l

engths of 12 feet, and 4 triangular sides with a base of 12 feet and height of 15 feet. The artist decides to cover the metal structure with 1-foot square glass tiles. How many tiles will she need to cover the pyramid?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the number of

tiles she will need to cover the pyramid, we would apply the formula for determining the total surface area of a pyramid. It is expressed as

Total surface area = 1/2 × p × l + base area

Where

p represents the perimeter of the base

l represents the slant height of the triangular face

Since the base is a square, the perimeter, p is

12 × 4 = 48 feet

l = 15 feet

Base area = 12² = 144 ft²

Total surface area = (1/2 × 48 × 15) + 144 = 504 ft²

Since the artist decides to cover the metal structure with 1-foot square glass tiles, the number of tiles needed is

504/1 = 504 tiles

Anna is saving to buy a new cell phone. Her mother is helping Anna by contributing money each month. What is the ratio between t
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Option D. 3:1, $120

Step-by-step explanation:        

The complete question in the attached figure    

Part 1) What is the ratio between the amount of money contributed by Anna and the amount contributed by her mother?      

Let    

x -----> the amount of money contributed by Anna      

y ----> the amount of money contributed by her mother    

we know that    

Looking at the table  

The value of x is equal to   x=\$30+\$60+\$90+\$120=\$300  

The value of y is equal to   y=\$10+\$20+\$30+\$40=\$100    

Find the ratio  x/y  

substitute the values  

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{300}{100}=\frac{3}{1}  

Part 2)  What was the total amount saved in April?    

we know that        

To find out the  total amount saved in April, adds Mon's contribution in April plus Anna's contribution in April            

so            

(\$30+\$90)=\$120

Find the coordinates of the centroid of triangle RST. SHOW YOUR WORK so I can see if the answer makes sense (no links)
zimovet [89]

Note the coordinates of each point: R(-4, 5), S(5, 1), T(2, -3).

The centroid is the point whose coordinates are the average of the coordinates of R, S, and T.

<em>x</em>-coordinate: (-4 + 5 + 2)/3 = 3/3 = 1

<em>y</em>-coordinate: (5 + 1 - 3)/3 = 3/3 = 1

So the centroid is (1, 1).
