Answer:

The value of x is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us study the face of the cuboind

∵ The cuboid has 6 rectangular faces

∵ Each opposite faces area equal in areas

∴ 2 faces of dimensions 10 cm and 2 cm

∴ 2 faces of dimensions 10 cm and x cm

∴ 2 faces of dimensions 2 cm and x cm

∵ The total surface area of the cuboid is the sum of the areas of the 6 faces

∵ The area of the rectangle = length × width

∴ The total surface area = 2(10 × 2) + 2(10 × x) + 2(2 × x)

∴ The total surface area = 2(20) + 2(10x) + 2(2x)

∴ The total surface area = 40 + 20x + 4x

→ Add the like terms 20x and 4x

∴ The total surface area = 40 + 24x

∵ The total surface area of this cuboid is 112 cm²

→ Equate the two sides of the total surface area

∴ 40 + 24x = 112

→ Subtract 40 from both sides

∵ 40 - 40 + 24x = 112 - 40

∴ 24x = 72

→ Divide both sides by 24

∴ x = 3

∴ The value of x is 3

Answer:

= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(easier way to solve it)

x = L, 10 = B, 2 = W

L x B

x 10 = A1

L x W

x 2 = A2

B x W

10 x 2 = 20 (A3)

= 112cm^2 / 2 = 56cm - 20 = 36

3 x 10 = 30

3 x 2 = 6

30 + 6 = 36

36 + 20 = 56cm

56cm x 2 = 112cm^2

(i hope this actually makes sense, things work differently in my mind)

State a true conclusion.
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The conclusion is "Plane R and Plane S form a line if they intersect."

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided statements.

1) If two planes intersect, their intersection is a line.

2) Plane Rand plane S intersect.

  • If two points lie in a plane, then the line joining them lies in that plane.
  • If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line.

For better understanding refer the figure:

There are two planes R and S, which intersect at the line l.

Since the given two planes intersect, the using the above fact we can say that their intersection is a line.

Thus, the conclusion is "Plane R and Plane S form a line if they intersect."

What is the constant of proportionality between y and x in the graph?
KatRina [158]

Answer:

y=3x

Step-by-step explanation:

y=kx, where k is constant

3y, 1x...so 3y = 1x

check: looking at the graph at 4.5y, 1.5x where y and x intersect...

4.5=3(1.5)

3 x 1.5 = 4.5

Help pls!!! <br> If a1 = 6 and an<br> 2an-1 then find the value of a4.
Alenkinab [10]
24? I am not entirely sure but I think a4=24

Reason: if a1 equals 6 then I would like to think you would multiply 6 by 4 to get the value of a4 (I haven’t done this type of math in a while)
