Hello : 
PA = PB  or  PA² = PB²
(5-b)²+(4-2)² = (2-b)² + (5-2)²
(5-b)²+4 = (2-b)² + 9
25 -10b +b² + 4  =  4 -4b+b² +9
-6b = -16 
b = 8/3

An arithmetic sequence with a third term of 8 and a constant difference of 5
Vanyuwa [196]

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence} \\\\ a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad  \begin{cases} n=n^{th}\ term\\ a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\ d=\textit{common difference}\\ \hrulefill\\[0.5em] a_3=8\\ n=3\\ d=5 \end{cases} \\\\\\ a_3=a_1+(3-1)5\implies 8=a_1+(2)5 \\\\\\ 8=a_1+10\implies -2=a_1 \\\\\\ \begin{cases} a_1=-2\\ d=5 \end{cases}\implies a_n=-2+(n-1)d

Use the net to compute the surface area of the three-dimensional figure.
Grace [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  382 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The central four rectangles down the middle of the net are 9 units wide, and alternate between 8 and 7 units high. Then the area of those four rectangles is ...

  9(8+7+8+7) = 270 . . . square units

The rectangles making up the two left and right "wings" of the net are 8 units high and 7 units wide, so have a total area of ...

  2×(8)(7) = 112 . . . square units

Then the area of the figure computed from the net is ...

  270 +112 = 382 . . . square units

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

You can reject the first two answer choices immediately, because they are odd. Each face will have an area that is the product of integers, so will be an integer. There are two faces of each size, so <em>the total area of this figure must be an even number</em>.

You may recognize that the dimensions are 8, 8+1, 8-1. Then the area is roughly that of a cube with dimensions of 8: 6×8² = 384. If you use these values (8, 8+1, 8-1) in the area formula, you find the area is actually 384-2 = 382. That area formula is A = 2(LW +H(L+W)).

The Quinn family drove 228 miles in 4 hours at a constant rate. Which equation can be used to determine how far they traveled ea
anyanavicka [17]
What can be used on this is the distance over time formula, so what you,do is divide 228 by 4 to get the distance traveled in one hour. And 288/4=57. So they traveled 57 mi in one hour. Hope this helped.
