Initial condition:

g+d=700

g=700-d

final condition

d+20=(2g/3)(1/6)

d+20=g/9

9d+180=g, and since g=700-d we can say

9d+180=700-d

10d+180=700

10d=520

d=52, and since g=700-d

g=648

The original number of ducks was 52 and the original amount of geese was 648.

So there were originally (648-52) 596 more geese than ducks.

x=98-32

= 66 degrees

Find the surface area of the composite solid and round to the nearest tenth. Explain your answer.
Orlov [11]
Well, notice the composite is really just 4 triangles atop sitting on top of 4 rectangles, and all of them area stacked up at the edges.

so, for the rectangle's sides,

front and back are two 6x3 rectangles

left and right are two 6x3 rectangles

the bottom part is a 6x6 rectangle

now, we don't include the 6x6 rectangle that's touching the triangles, because that's inside area, and is not SURFACE area, so we nevermind that one.

now, the triangles are just four triangles with a base of 6, and a height of 4, in red noted there.

so, just get the area of all those rectangles and the triangles, sum them up and that's the surface area of the composite,

\bf \stackrel{lateral~rectangles}{4(6\cdot 3)}~~+~~\stackrel{bottom~rectangle}{(6\cdot 6)}~~+~~\stackrel{triangles}{4\left( \cfrac{1}{2}(6)(4) \right)}
