Answer:
138 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
So first, we find the S.A. of the front and back.
The diagram says the side length of the front is 3 cm. and 3 cm.
3x3=9. So then, the back is also 9 cm, 9+9=18.
Now to find the S.A.'s of the four sides, you have to see the side lengths of each of them. The side lengths are 3 and 10.
3x10=30. This means each of them is 30 cm.
30x4=120. 120 is the total surface area of the four sides.
To find the total surface area of the whole rectangle, you add all the surface areas.
120+18=138 cm. (Not squared, since it's surface area and not area.)
Because accepting credit cards cost the business small transaction fees. These businesses already have a paper thin profit margin, meaning if you buy less than $10 and use credit card, their profit is little to non-existent.
If a student tells me that an argument that has a false hypothesis cannot be valid, I would reply that we need to look carefully at the meaning of validity in the context of logic. In everyday speech, we tend to use “valid” to mean the same thing as “true” or “accurate.” In logic, this is not the way the term is used.
