Answer:

Part a) The length of the longest rod that can be placed in the room is 42.43 m

Part b) The total surface area is SA=3,384\ m^2

Part c) The volume is equal to V=12,960\ m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Find the length of the longest rod that can be placed in the room

The room is in the shape of a rectangular prism, so the longest rod that can be placed in the room is equal to the diagonal of the rectangular prism

Let

d -----> diagonal of the base of the room

D ----> diagonal of the rectangular prism

step 1

Find the diagonal of the base

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

d^{2}=30^{2}+24^{2}

d^{2}=1,476

d=\sqrt{1,476}\ m

step 2

Find the diagonal of the rectangular prism

The legs of the diagonal of the rectangular prism are the diagonal of the base and the height of the room

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

D^{2}=(\sqrt{1,476})^{2}+18^{2}

D^{2}=1,476+324

D^{2}=1,800

D=42.43}\ m

Part b) Find the total surface area

we know that

The total surface area of the room is equal to

SA=2B+PH

where

B is the area of the base of the room

P is the perimeter of the base of the room

H is the height of the room

so

SA=2[(30)(24)]+2[30+24](18)

SA=1,440+1,944

SA=3,384\ m^2

Part c) Find the volume

we know that

The volume of the room is equal to

V=BH

where

B is the area of the base of the room

H is the height of the room

so

V=[(30)(24)](18)

V=12,960\ m^3

What is the unit price for the cans of lemonade at each of the stores?
zvonat [6]
For shop smart, the price is 48 packs for 9 dollars so you would divide
9 ÷ 48 to find the price for dollars per can which is 19 cents per can
for super save it's saying 48 packs for 10 dollars so divide
10 ÷ 48 and that is 21 cents per can
for price buster it's saying 36 packs for 9 dollars so you would divide
9 ÷ 36 which is 25 cents per can
so Mei Pilar and David should purchase the cans at shop smart since it's cheaper
