\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad y=\cfrac{k}{x}\impliedby \begin{array}{llll} k=constant\ of\\ \qquad variation \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}


\bf \stackrel{\textit{\underline{n} scarves is inversely proportional to the area \underline{a} of each scarf}}{n=\cfrac{k}{a}} \\\\\\ \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} a=3\\ n=16 \end{cases}\implies 16=\cfrac{k}{3}\implies 48=k~\hfill \boxed{n=\cfrac{48}{a}} \\\\\\ \textit{when a = 4, what is \underline{n}?}\qquad n=\cfrac{48}{4}\implies n=12

Answer:

<h2>CYLINDER</h2>

Surface Area = 471.2 cm^2

<h2>TRIANGULAR PRISM</h2>

Surface Area = 60.75 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>CYLINDER</h2>

The surface area formula for a cylinder is π x diameter x (diameter / 2 + height), where (diameter / 2) is the radius of the base (d = 2 x r), so another way to write it is π x radius x 2 x (radius + height). ( π =3.14 )

FORMULA:

π x 5 x 2 x 15

WORK:

π x 5 = 15.7

15.7 x 2 = 31.4

31.4 x 15 = 471

<h2>TRIANGULAR PRISM</h2>

The surface area formula for a triangular prism is 2 * (height x base / 2) + length x width1 + length x width2 + length x base.

FORMULA:

2 x (2.5 x 1.5/2) + (6 x 4) + (6 x 4) + (6 x 1.5)

WORK:

(2.5 x 1.5) = 3.75/2 = 1.875

1.875 x 2 = 3.75

(6 x 4) = 24

(6 x 4) = 24

(6 x 1.5) = 9

3.75 + 24 + 24 + 9 = 60.75
