Answer:
The value of n must be a positive number.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a square is given by 
where 
is the side of the square.
Now, given the area of the square is 
.
OA) If the area had been zero, i.e., 
then it means that there is no square at all.
OB) Also, it can not be any other number other than zero as this can include negative numbers as well. And an area being negative makes no sense. (OD) is eliminated as well.
So, the area should be positive.
Answer:
324 square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
The surface area of a shape is the area of all the surfaces added up
The side surface area is 48 since 16 x 3 is 48. Since there are two side areas, we need to multiply 48 x 2 is 96
Now we need to do this for the other sides
the bottom and top areas are 96 square meters each so we multiply 96 by 2 which is 192
The front and back faces have an area of 18 square meters so we multiply 18 by 2 since there are two faces which are 36
Now we add all the values: 96+192+36 which is 324
So the surface area of the prism is 324 square meters
I’m pretty sure the Points are B, D, E and F
Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction who picked apples is the rest of the students:
1 - 5/8 = 3/8
of them.
So the number who picked apples relative to the number who picked bananas is ...
apples/bananas = (3/8)/(5/8) = 3/5
Multiplying this by the number who picked bananas gives the number who picked apples:
apples = bananas · 3/5 = 80·3/5 = 48
48 students picked apples.
____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
Let "a" represent the number who picked apples. The ratio of banana choosers to the total is 5/8, and there were 80 who chose bananas. That gives rise to the equation ...
80/(80 +a) = 5/8
640 = 400 +5a . . . . . . multiply by 8(80+a) and simplify
240 = 5a . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 400
240/5 = a = 48 . . . . . . divide by 5
48 students picked apples.
