Answer:

  470.16 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The apothem of the base is used for two purposes: to find the area of the base, and to find the slant height of each face.

The apothem of the base for side length s is ...

  s/2 = a·tan(π/8)

  a = s/(2·tan(π/8)) ≈ 7.24 cm

The slant height of a triangular face is found using the Pythagorean theorem. The apothem of the base and the height are legs of the right triangle whose hypotenuse is the slant height. For slant height x, we have ...

  x² = 10² + a² = 100 +52.46

  x ≈ √152.46 ≈ 12.35

__

The area of the 8 triangular faces will be ...

  A = 1/2Px . . . . where P is the perimeter of the pyramid

The area of the base will be ...

  A = 1/2Pa

So, the total surface area is ...

  A = 1/2P(a + x) = (1/2)(8)(6 cm)(7.24 +12.35 cm) ≈ 470.16 cm²

PLEASE HELP ME ON THESE PROBLEMS, ITS URGENT! (Help for any of these would be greatly appreciated!)
Anvisha [2.4K]
1.) We can solve the problem by developing a linear model.
Let x represent the quantity to be used of the grade of coffee that sells for $70 per pound, and y represent the quantity to be used of the grade of coffee that sells for $80 per pound, then
\left\begin{array}{c}x+y=80 . . . (1)\\70x+80y=76(80) . . . (2)\end{array}\right  \\   \\ \Rightarrow  \left\begin{array}{c}80x+80y=6400 . . . (3)\\70x+80y=6080 . . . (4)\end{array}\right  \\  \\ \Rightarrow10x=320 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=32 \\  \\ \Rightarrow y=80-32=48
Therefore, 32 pounds of the grade of coffee that sells for $70 per pound, and 48 pounds of the grade of coffee that sells for $80 per pound should be used.


2.) Volume of alcohol in the original mixture
\frac{35}{100} \times 40=14 quarts

Let x be the number of quarts of alcohol to be added, then
Volume of alcohol in the new mixture
\frac{48}{100} \times (40+x)=14+x \\  \\ \Rightarrow19.2+0.48x=14+x \\  \\ \Rightarrow0.52x=5.2 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=10

Therefore, 10 quarts of pure alcohol should be added


3.) Original proportion of white paint in the mixture
=\frac{5}{5+11}=\frac{5}{16}

Let x be the number of gallons of white paint to be added, then
\frac{5+x}{16+x}=\frac{2}{3} \\  \\ \Rightarrow3(5+x)=2(16+x) \\  \\ \Rightarrow15+3x=32+2x \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=32-15=17
Therefore, 17 gallons of white paint should be added.


4a.) Let the three consecutive odd integers be x - 2, x and x + 2, then
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 25 \\  \\ \Rightarrow3x=25\Rightarrow x=8.33
which is not an integer.
Hence, the sum of three consecutive odd integers cannot be 25.

4b.) Let the three consecutive odd integers be x - 2, x and x + 2, then
x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 45 \\ \\ \Rightarrow3x=45\Rightarrow x=15
Thus, the three consecutive odd intergers whose sum is 45 are 13, 15 and 17.


5.) If all pipes are open and the tank was initially empty, let t be the time it will take to fill the tank, then
\frac{1}{t} = \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{12} - \frac{1}{15} = \frac{20+15-12}{180} = \frac{23}{180} \\  \\ \Rightarrow t= \frac{180}{23} =7.83
Therefore, it will take 7.83 hours to get the tank filled up.
