The surface area of the tent is 21.4 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of a prism you must calculate:

1. The perimeter of the base

2. The area of the base

3. The height of the prism

We have a triangular prism:

Its base is an equilateral triangle of side length 2 m and height 1.7 m

The height of the prism is 3 m

∵ The surface are of the prism is:

   S.A = perimeter of the base × height + 2 × area of the base

∵ The perimeter of the equilateral triangle = 3 × length of a side

∵ The length of the side = 2 m

∴ The perimeter of the base = 3 × 2 = 6 m

∵ The area of the triangle = \frac{1}{2} × base × height

∵ The length of the base of the triangle = 2 m

∵ The height of the triangle = 1.7 m

∴ The area of the base = \frac{1}{2} × 2 × 1.7 = 1.7 m²

∵ S.A = perimeter of the base × height + 2 × area of the base

∵ The perimeter of the base = 6 m

∵ The area of the base = 1.7 m²

∵ The height of the prism = 3 m

∴ S.A = 6 × 3 + 2 × 1.7

∴ S.A = 18 + 3.4

∴ S.A = 21.4 m²

The surface area of the tent is 21.4 m²

We have been given that Cam's tent is a triangular prism. We are asked to find the surface area of Cam's tent including the floor.

The total surface area of tent would be sum of area of all sides.

We can see that two sides of tent are triangular, so their area will be equal to area of triangle.

\text{Area of 2 triangular sides}=2\times\frac{1}{2} \times \text{Base}\times \text{Height}

\text{Area of 2 triangular sides}=2\times\frac{1}{2} \times \text{2 m}\times \text{1.7 cm}

\text{Area of 2 triangular sides}=3.4 \text{ m}^2

Now we can see that tent has two rectangular sides.

\text{Area of 2 rectangular sides}=2\times \text{Length}\times \text{Width}

\text{Area of 2 rectangular sides}=2\times \text{2 m}\times \text{3 m}

\text{Area of 2 rectangular sides}=12\text{ m}^2

We can see that floor of tent is also rectangular.

\text{Area of floor}=3\text{ m}\times 2\text{ m}

\text{Area of floor}=6\text{ m}^2

\text{Tent's total area}=3.4\text{ m}^2+12\text{ m}^2+6\text{ m}^2

\text{Tent's total area}=21.4\text{ m}^2

Therefore, the total area of tent is 21.4 square meters.

Andru [333]

Answer:

1 : 45

Step-by-step explanation:

225 divided by 5 equals 45. You can now use this ratio to determine the number of people with different amounts of buses; when you change x from 1 to n, you would need to multiply 45 by n, and you will have your new ratio column in the table.

Hope this helps :)

A computer training institute has 625 students that are paying a course fee of $400. Their research shows that for every $20 red
Anastasy [175]
1.
If no changes are made, the school has a revenue of :

625*400$/student=250,000$

2.
Assume that the school decides to reduce n*20$.

This means that there will be an increase of 50n students.

Thus there are 625 + 50n students, each paying 400-20n dollars.

The revenue is: 

(625 + 50n)*(400-20n)=12.5(50+n)*20(20-n)=250(n+50)(20-n)

3.

check the options that we have, 

a fee of $380 means that n=1, thus 

250(n+50)(20-n)=250(1+50)(20-1)=242,250   ($)


a fee of $320 means that n=4, thus

 250(n+50)(20-n)=250(4+50)(20-4)=216,000    ($)


the other options cannot be considered since neither 400-275, nor 400-325 are multiples of 20.

Conclusion, neither of the possible choices should be applied, since they will reduce the revenue.

there are 30 flowers in a vase 2.5 of flowers are roses. 1/6 of the flowers are daisies. the rest of the flowers are carnations.
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

13 carnations

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you meant 2/5 because 2.5 would mean there are more roses in the vase than there are flowers in the vase, heres how to solve this.

Understanding

Each fraction is referring to "flowers" not "remaining flowers" and as such each time we will be comparing to the total.

2/5 of the total flowers are roses. This is written in words as for every 5 flowers two are roses, which means we will multiply 2 by how many sets of five we have in 30 flowers.

(30/5) x 2 =

(6) x 2 = 12 roses

Though with fractions its written as 30/1*2/5 which is the same as (30 x 2)/5

60/5 = 12 roses

Following this logic for every 6 flowers one is a daisy.

30/1 * 1/6 = (30 x 1)/6 = 30/6 = 5 daisies

Because the rest are carnations we want to subtract the amount of daisies and roses from the total amount of flowers to find the remaining flowers.

30 - 5 - 12 = 13 carnations

Hope this helps,

How would you do this???
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

8.3 L/s

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer you need to find the slope also known as the rate of change. When you find slope it is always change in y over change in x.

\frac{399-150}{40-10}

Then simplify

\frac{249}{30}

Then divide to get your slope/average rate of change

\frac{249}{30} = 8.3
