Answer:

Total Surface Area of the Prism=640 square meters

Chris made a mistake in calculating the area of the rectangular base.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Dimension of the Triangle</u>

Base=16m, Height=15m

Area of the Two triangular Faces =0.5 X 16 X 15 X 2=240 square meters

This is correct

<u>Dimensions of the Rectangles</u>

16m by 8m, 17m by 8m, 17m by 8m

Area of the Rectangular Faces=(17X8)+(17X8)+(16X8)=400 square meters

  • Total Surface Area of the Prism=240+400=640 square meters

  • Chris' Error was in calculating the area of the base of the prism as (17 x 8) instead of (16 X 8).

Natasha2012 [34]
Given:
Cost of dishwasher : 315 before sales tax
sales tax : 9.22%

Total cost = 315 * 1.0922 = 344.043

Average of 10 uses per week for the next 6 years before replacing it.
There are 52 weeks in a year.

10 uses per week * 52 weeks per year * 6 years = 3120 average uses

cost for water = 0.09 ; cost for electricity = 0.13 ; total cost per use = 0.22

0.22 * 3120 = 686.40 cost of use

purchase cost =    344.043
cost of use      =    <u>686.40</u>
lifetime cost     1,030.443
