Answer:

Surface area is found:

Surface Area = 1700 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

(The cereal box is shown in the ATTACHMENT)

The surface area of a rectangular prism can be found by added the areas of all 6 sides of the rectangular prism.

L = length = 20 cm

H = height = 30 cm

W = Width = 5 cm

Side 1:

A(1) = L×H

A(1) = 20×30

A(1) = 600 cm²

Side 2:

As the measurements of the side at the back of side 1 has the same measurement of side 1. then:

A(2) = 600 cm²

Side 3:

A(3) = L×W

A(3) = 20×5

A(3) = 100 cm²

Side 4:

As the measurements of the side at the back of side 4 has the same measurement of side 4. then:

A(4) = 100 cm²

Side 5:

A(5) = H×W

A(5) = 30×5

A(5) = 150 cm²

Side 6:

As the measurements of the side at the back of side 5 has the same measurement of side 5. then:

A(6) = 150 cm²

Surface Area:

Adding areas of all the sides

A(1) + A(2) + A(3) +A(4) + A(5) + A(6) = 600 + 600 + 100 +100 + 150 +150

Surface Area = 1700 cm²

If g(x) = 1 - ¾ x find: -5g(4) - 1

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

-5g(4) - 1 is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

$g(x) = 1 - \frac{3}{4} x$

when x is 4:

$g(4) = 1 - \frac{3}{4} \times 4 \\ = 1 - 3 \\ = - 2$

therefore:

$- 5g(4) - 1 = - 5( - 2) - 1 \\ = 10 - 1 \\ = 9$

On a map the distance from Fort Collins to Cheyenne is 3.2 inches. The angle formed at Laramie has measure 43.6º, and the angle

MArishka [77]

We can solve this by drawing a triangle with three points. The first point at Fort Collins (F), the second at Cheyenne (C) and the third at Laramie (L).

The angle at F = 46.5, the angle at L = 43.6. We know the side opposite angle L = 3.2 (side FC), now we must solve for the side opposite angle F (side LC).

We can use the law of sines to solve this where:

sinA/a = sinB/b
sin43.6/ 3.2 = sin46.5/LC
LC = 3.2 (sin46.5/sin43.6)
LC = 3.37 inches

We are told 1 in = 10.6 miles, therefore:

3.37 inches x 10.6 miles/in = 36 miles from Laramie to Cheyenne.

The diagonals of rhombus fghj intersect at point k. if side gh is equal to 3x - 10 and side jh is equal to 6x - 19, find x

exis [7]

A rhombus is a square but turned so it looks like a diamond. This means all the sides are equal. With this information we can build an equation to solve for x.

3x - 10 = 6x - 19

1) Subtract 3x from both sides.

-10 = 3x - 19

2) Add 19 to both sides.

9 = 3x

3) Divide both sides by 3.

3 = x

x =3.
