Since we’ve been given a ratio, 3:8, we can convert that into a fraction and form an equation from it:

\frac{3}{8} = \frac{27/3}{?}

The reason the numerator on the second fraction is 27/3 is because the team scored 27 points, not 27 baskets.

Simplify (Also replace the ? with an unknown variable):

\frac{3}{8} = \frac{9}{n}

Cross multiply:

3*n = 9*8

Simplify:

3n = 72

Divide both sides by 3:

n = 24

The team had 33 three point tries, 9 successes, and 24 fails.

Answer:

C. 184 ft²

Step-by-Step Explanation:

The formula for the surface area of a triangular prism is

SA = bh + 2ls + lb; where b = base, h = height, l = length, s = side

First, substitute the known value into the equation:

b = 6 ft

h = 4 ft

l = 10 ft

s = 5 ft

SA = (6)(4) + 2(10)(5) + (10)(6)

Then, all we have to do is simplify:

SA = 24 + 2(50) + 60

SA = 24 + 100 + 60

SA = 184 ft²

Hope this helps!

T= total cost
n= number of days

Total cost equals the cost per day times the number of days plus the fee.

T= $39n + $65
substitute 5 for n
T= 39(5) + 65
T= 195 + 65
T= $260 total cost

Hope this helps! :)
