William is 17 years old and Charmaine is 14 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the age of William and y be the age of Charmaine

Then

William is 3 years, older than Charmine.

x = y+3    Eqn 1

The sum of 3 times Charmaine's age and 2 times William's age is 76.

2x+3y = 76     Eqn 2

Putting x = y+3 in Eqn 2

2(y+3)+3y=76\\2y+6+3y=76\\5y+6=76\\Subtracting\ 6\ from\ both\ sides\\5y+6-6=76-6\\5y=70\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\\frac{5y}{5} = \frac{70}{5}\\y=14\\Putting\ the\ value\ of\ y\ in\ Eqn\ 1\\x=y+3\\x=14+3\\x=17

Hence,

William is 17 years old and Charmaine is 14 years old.

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by

V = pi r^2 h

We can find the radius from the diameter

r = d/2 = 34/2 = 17

V = (3.14) (17)^2 * 27

V =24501.42 m^3

The surface of a cone is found by

SA = pi r^2 + pi r  l where l is the slant height

We can find the radius from the diameter

r = 8/2 = 4

SA =(3.14) * 4^2 + 3.14 * 4*7

      =50.24+87.92

        138.16 in^2

The lateral surface area of a pyramid is found by taking the area of the sides

LSA = 4 * the area of a triangle

          we multiply by 4 since there are 4 sides

        = 4 * 1/2 b*h  where b is the base of the triangle and h is the height of the triangle.  (in this case it would be the slant height)

           = 2 * 8 *22

          =352 m^2
