Let h = height of triangle

h^2 + 12^2 = 15^2

h^2 + 144 = 225

h^2 = 225 - 144

h^2 = 81

sqrt{h^2} = sqrt{81}

h = 9 cm

For part B, we need to find surface area because it represents the perimeter of this 3-D figure. The formula needed is SA = B + LA.

1. First find the lateral area.

LA = perimeter of triangle • height

LA = ph

p = 15 + 15 + 24

p = 30 + 24

p = 54 cm

LA = (54)(9)

LA = 486 cm^2

2. We now find the base of each triangle. This is found by finding the area of each triangle and multiplying by 2.

A = (1/2)bh

A = (1/2)(24)(9)

A = 108 cm^2

A = 2•108 cm^2

A = 216 cm^2 = our B in the surface area formula.

SA = B + LA

SA = 216 cm^2 + 486 cm^2

SA = 702 cm^2

The amount of cardboard needed is 702 cm^2.

Trevor tutors French for $12 an hour and scoops ice cream for $8 an hour. He is going to work 20 hours this week. At least how m

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = total amount of money earned

M = 12x+8y

To make more than $190, the equation is:

190<12x+8y

Since Trevor is going to scoop ice cream for 20 hours, the equation is:

190<12x+8(20), which simplifies to 190<12x+160.

Isolate x to find the amount of hours that Trevor needs to tutor.

190-160<12x

30<12x

30/12<x

2.5<x

Trevor must tutor for more than 2.5 hours to make more than $190.

Suri's age is 4 less than 3 times her cousin's age. Suri is 17 years old. Which method can be used to find c, her cousin's age?

Mila [183]

Answer:

7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Suri's age=17 years

Her cousin's age =c

Suri's age is 4 less than 3 times her cousin's age

4 less than 3 times her cousin's age means subtract 4 from 3 times her cousin's age

17=3c - 4

Find c which is her cousin's age

Add 4 to both sides

17+4=3c - 4 + 4

17+4=3c

21=3c

Divide both sides by 3

21/3=3c/3

7=c

Therefore,

C= 7

Her cousin's age = 7 years

Two students, Raymond and Shauna, are trying to get city council members to vote for a new park along the river. 2/6 of the 24 c

galina1969 [7]

Raymond and Shauna must convince at least 5 more city council member. Because if every 2/6 members agree with the idea, then there would be 8 people out 24 that already agree with the idea. So if you have already 8 members then to make 13, you just need 5 (8 + 5=13) more people to 13.
