The answer is <span>He subtracted 10 from the right side instead of adding 10 to the right side

Let's solve it:
</span><span>2x + y = 5
x − 2y = 10
________
Rearrange first equation to get y:
y = 5 - 2x
________
Substitute y into the second equation:
x - 2(5 - 2x) = 10
________
Multiply the terms:
x - 10 + 4x = 10
________
Combine the terms:
5x - 10 = 10
________
Add 10 on the both sides of the equation:
5x = 10 + 10
5x = 20
x = 4</span>

Using the net below, find the surface area
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

56 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area is just finding the areas of each face in a figure. As we are given a net of a figure, it is much easier for us to calculate it.

Area of square base (side^2)

4^2 = 16 cm^2

Area of ONE triangular face (1/2 x b x h):

1/2 x 4 x 5 = 10 cm^2

Multiply that by 4 because we have 4 triangular faces: 10 cm^2 x 4 = 40 cm^2

ADD all the areas of triangles and square:

16 cm^2 + 40 cm^2 = 56 cm^2

HOPE THIS HELPS

Have a nice day!
