Answer:

Appliance store has better rate than department store.

Step-by-step explanation:

Appliance store gives 2 for $95

So price of 1 will be = 95/2 = $47.5

Department store sells 5 for $250

So price of 1 will be = $250/5 = $ 50

So as a buyer we are in profit when buy from appliance store because we are at a profit of $2.5 per lamp.

I hope it will help you!

The surface are I cannot find
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

check the picture below.


so the triangular prism is really just 3 rectangles and 2 right-triangles,

now, we know the base of one of the triangles is 2.6, what's its height?

since it's a right-triangle, we can simply use the pythagorean theorem to get "h".


\bf \textit{using the pythagorean theorem}
\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b
\qquad
\begin{cases}
c=\stackrel{hypotenuse}{5.2}\\
a=\stackrel{adjacent}{2.6}\\
b=\stackrel{opposite}{h}\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\sqrt{5.2^2-2.6^2}=h\implies 4.5\approx h


so, we can now, simply get the area of both of the triangles and the three rectangles and sum them up, and that's the area of the triangular prism.


\bf \stackrel{two~triangles}{2\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(2.6)(4.5) \right]}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(2.6\cdot 4.3)}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(4.3\cdot 3.9)}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(4.3\cdot 5.2)}
\\\\\\
11.7+11.18+22.36\implies \blacktriangleright 45.24 \blacktriangleleft

Is 6/7 equal to 3/4?
zheka24 [161]
Ok so, when working to find if a fraction is equal to another you must know what it is cut down by. So 6 / 2 = 3. Now let's break down 7 by 2. It is 3.5 that is not four. So no 6/7 so not equal to 3/4.

A line passes through the points (0, 4) and (1, 9). What is its equation in slope-intercept
Simora [160]

Answer:

y=5x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

First get slope:

(4-9)/(0-1) = -5/-1 = 5

The y-intercept is where the graph hits the y-axis. That is also the point on the graph where x = 0. We are already given that, with point (0,4).

The y-intercept is 4.

y = mx +b,  m is slope and b is the intercept.

y = 5x +4
