Answer:

P = 3x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Side 1 = x - 3

Side 2 = x

Side 3 = 2 + (Side 1) = 2 + x - 3 = x - 1

Perimeter = 20 in

Perimeter = Side 1 + Side 2 + Side 3

Perimeter = (x - 3) + (x) + (x - 1)

Perimeter = x - 3 + x + x - 1

Perimeter = 3x - 3 - 1

Perimeter = 3x - 3 - 1

Perimeter = 3x - 4

P = 3x - 4

What is the surface area of the rectangular pyramid shown? 59.5 cm2 63 cm2 75.5 cm2 99 cm2
arsen [322]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question figure of pyramid is attached below the question .

Surface area of the rectangular pyramid :

Area of the Base = Length × Width

                            = 10 × 2 = 20 cm²

Area of Lateral #1 = \frac{1}{2}(P)(L)

                             = \frac{1}{2}(10\times6.3)

                             = 31.5 cm²

Area of Lateral #2 = \frac{1}{2}(8\times 2)

                               = \frac{16}{2}

                               = 8 cm²

Surface area of the pyramid = 20 + 2(31.5) + 2(8)

                                                = 20 + 63 + 16

                                                = 99 cm²

Surface area of the pyramid is 99 cm²
