Write a number sentance that shows why the associative property does not work with subtraction

(5-4)-3 = -2.  If we move the parenthesis, as is defined by what the associative property is, 5-(4-3) = 4.  No matter what, you always approach mathematical equations or expressions using PEMDA.  We have to do what's inside the parenthesis first, which is why we end up with 2 different solutions using subtraction.

Find the surface area of the solid. Round to two decimal places
Ne4ueva [31]
Check the picture below.

so, to get the area of the triangles, we can simply run a perpendicular line from the top to the base, and end up with a right-triangle with a base of 22 and a hypotenuse of 34, let's find the altitude.

\bf \textit{using the pythagorean theorem}&#10;\\\\&#10;c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;c=hypotenuse\\&#10;a=adjacent\\&#10;b=opposite\\&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\sqrt{34^2-22^2}=b\implies \sqrt{672}=b

so then the surface area of the triangular prism is,

\bf \stackrel{\textit{left and right}}{2(34\cdot 76)}~~+~~\stackrel{\textit{bottom}}{(44\cdot 76)}~~+~~\stackrel{\textit{front and back}}{2\left[\cfrac{1}{2}(44)(\sqrt{672})  \right]}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;8512~~+~~(44)(\sqrt{672})\qquad \approx\qquad 9652.61036291978
