1. Regroup terms
x(x+5)=104
2. Expand
x^2+5x=104
3. Move all terms to one side
x^2+5x-104=0
4. Factor x^2+5x-104
(x-8)(x+13)=0
5. Solve for x
x=8 or x=-13
Since x<0 is not possible in this case, x=8
6. Finding the dimensions
We know that one side has to be x+5, and now that we know x:
8+5=13
13*8=104
The dimensions are 13 and 8, have a nice day :D
Answer:
72 = 30%
Step-by-step explanation:
240 = 100%
24 = 10%
12 = 5%
2.4 = 1%
72 / 24 = 3
72 = 30%
Let me know if I got it wrong :)
Cross section is the area you make when you make a cut across a shape. In this case, the cut must be parallel to the base. Hence, the cut shape would be same to that of the base. The base's dimensions are 7 cm long x 5 cm wide. Thus, the cross section area is 35 square centimeters.

Answer:
The surface area of the prism is 276 in.²
If you are also looking for the volume of the prism, it is 280.
Step-by-step explanation:
It's hard to find the surface area and the volume of the prism if you're just looking at the net of the 3D shape. There are some unnecessary measurements that will definitely throw you off. I drew a sample prism so it's easier to solve. Check the linked image.
The formula in finding the surface area of a prism is SA = 2(wl + hl + hw), where w is for width, l is for length, and h is for height. The point of all of these calculations is to find the area of 3 different faces of the prism and then you add up all of the areas and multiply the sum by 2 to give you the surface area. Looks a lot but it's worth getting the answer right.
The formula in finding the volume of the prism is V = w * h * l, where w is for width, h is for height, and l is for length. Simple multiplication of 3 different sides and you'll get the volume. I hope this helps and if I am wrong please let me know! :D
