Answer:

4 1/4 feet below sea level

Step-by-step explanation:

5 1/2 is the same as 5.5 and 1 1/4 is the same as 1.25. So you just have to subtract 1.25 from 5.5 which leaves you with 4.25 (aka 4 1/4)

A right prism has height 7½ and triangular bases with sides of length 5, 12, and 13 What is the: Total Surface Area of the Prism

sdas [7]

Given:

A right prism has height 7½ and triangular bases with sides of length 5, 12, and 13.

To find:

The total surface area of the prism.

Solution:

We have,

Height of prism = 7½ = 7.5

Sides of triangular base are 5, 12, 13. These sides of Pythagorean triplets because

$5^2+12^2=13^2$

$25+144=169$

$169=169$

So, the base of the prism is a right triangle.

Area of a triangle is

$Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base \times height$

$A_1=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 5\times 12$

$A_1=30$

The area of the base is equal to the area of the top, i.e., $A_2=30$ sq units.

Perimeter of the base is

$P=5+12+13$

$P=30$

The curved surface area of the prism is

$CSA=\text{Perimeter of the base}\times \text{Height of the prism}$

$CSA=30\times 7.5$

$CSA=225$

Now, the total area of the prism is

$A=A_1+A_2+CSA$

$A=30+30+225$

$A=285$

Therefore, the total surface area of the triangular prism is 285 square units.

What is the period function of f(x)=1/2tan (2x+5)

soldi70 [24.7K]

Compare your f(x)=1/2tan (2x+5) to

g(x)=a*tan (bx + c).

Note how b = 2.

The period of the given tangent function is pi/b, which here is pi/2, or 90 degrees. Multiplying x by 2 horizontallyl compresses the graph of tan x by a factor of 1/2.

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The number of bananas that Emily bought was 6 and the number of peaches that Emily bought was 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

Emily and her children went into a grocery store and she bought $20.80 worth of bananas and peaches. Each banana costs $0.80 and each peach costs $2. She bought a total of 14 peaches and bananas altogether. Determine the number of peaches and the number of bananas that Emily bought

Let

x ----> the number of bananas that Emily bought

y ----> the number of peaches that Emily bought

we know that

She bought a total of 14 bananas and peaches altogether

so

$x+y=14$ -----> equation A

She bought $20.80 worth of bananas and peaches

so

$0.80x+2y=20.80$ -----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (6,8)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of bananas that Emily bought was 6 and the number of peaches that Emily bought was 8
