Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the total surface area of a regular pyramid is the sum of the areas of its lateral faces and its base, therefore it would be equal to:

As = 1/2 * p * h + l ^ 2

where l are the sides that measure 4, p is the perimeter that is the sum of the sides, and since there are 4 sides then it would be 16 (4 * 4), h the inclined height is 8, replacing we are left with:

As = 1/2 * 16 * 8 + 4 ^ 2

Ace = 80

Now, they say that the sides and the tilt height are multiplied by 4, the sides now measures 16, therefore the perimeter is 64 (4 * 16), the height would be 32, replacing would be:

As = 1/2 * 64 * 32 + 16 ^ 2

As = 1280

Therefore the factor would be:

1280/80 = 16

This means that to calculate the new surface area, it must be multiplied by the square of the number by which the sides and the inclined height are multiplied, that is, 4 ^ 2 = 16.

Which polynomial can be simplified to a difference of squares
Mrrafil [7]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The polynomial that can be simplified to a difference of squares is the second polynomial:

16a^{2}-4a+4a-1=16a^{2}=(4a)^{2}-(1)^{2}=(4-1)(4+1)

<h2>Why?</h2>

To solve this problem, we need to look for which of the given quadratic terms given for the different polynomials can be a result of squaring (elevating by two).

So,

Discarding, we have:

The quadratic terms of the given polynomials are:

First=10a^{2}

Second=16a^{2}

Third=25a^{2}

Fourth=24a^{2}

We have that the coefficients of the quadratic terms that can be obtained by squaring are:

16a^{2} =(4a)^{2} \\\\25a^{2} =(5a)^{2}

The other two coefficients are not perfect squares since they can not be obtained by square rooting whole numbers.

So, the first and the fourth polynomial are discarded and cannot be simplified to a difference of squares at least using whole numbers.

Therefore, we need to work with the second and the third polynomial.

For the second polynomial, we have:

16a^{2} -4a+4a-1=16a^{2}=(4a)^{2}-(1)^{2} =(4-1)(4+1)

So, the second polynomial can be simplified to a difference of squares.

For the third polynomial, we have:

25a^{2} +6a-6a+36=16a^{2}+36=(5a)^{2}+(6)^{2}

So, the third polynomial cannot be simplified to a difference of squares since it's a sum of squares.

Hence, the polynomial that can be simplified to a difference of squares is the second polynomial:

16a^{2}-4a+4a-1=16a^{2}=(4a)^{2}-(1)^{2}

Help pls!!!!! Brainliest goes to first right answer
zepelin [54]

Answer:

96 inch²

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 2 shapes,

1. a square

2. a triangle

lets find the area of the square first,

<u>AREA = SIDE × SIDE</u>

= 8 × 8

= 64 inch²

now, area of triangle ,

area \:  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times base \:  \times height \:

=  \frac{1}{2}  \times 8 \times 8 \\  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 64 \\  = 32 \:  {inch}^{2}

so, total area is :

area of square + area of triangle

= 64 + 32

= 96 inch²

Using a property of operations, what can you say about the sums of (-13.2) 8.1 and 13.2 (-8.1)
artcher [175]
No matter where the negative sign is, the product will always be negative, so is the number itself.

13.2(-8.1)=-106.92

twice of that would be -213.84.

first do the multiplying, then the adding(the adding of negative numbers, so it would be basically subtracting).
