<u>Answer:</u>

<u><em>a - 3b + 4</em></u>

<u />

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the instructions, we must apply the distributive property to create an equivalent expression.

<em>* reminder</em>

<em>distributive property formula: a (b + c) = ab + ac</em>

<em />

Let's start by applying the distributive property to the expression.

\displaystyle\frac{1}{2} (2a - 6b + 8)\\\\\displaystyle\frac{1}{2} (2a) + \displaystyle\frac{1}{2} (-6b) + \displaystyle\frac{1}{2} (8)

Simplify by multiplying.

\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(2a)+\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(-6b)+\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(8)\\\\a+\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(-6b)+\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(8)\\\\a-3b+\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(8)\\\\a-3b + 4

Therefore, an equivalent expression to the given expression is a - 3b + 4.

The surface area of the triangular prism is of 140 cm².

<h3>What is the surface area of a prism?</h3>

It is the sum of the areas of all faces of a prism. In this problem, the prism has these following faces:

  • One rectangle of dimensions 8 cm and 6 + 4 + 5 = 15 cm.
  • Two right triangles with sides 4 cm and 5 cm.

For a rectangle, the area is given by the multiplication of the dimensions, hence:

Ar = 8 x 15 = 120 cm²

For each right triangle, the area is given by half the multiplication of the sides, hence:

At = 2 x 0.5 x 4 x 5 = 20 cm².

Then the surface area of the prism is:

S = 120 cm² + 20 cm² = 140 cm².
