2 answers:
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
<h3 /><h3>Side 1:</h3>A(1) = L×H
A(1) = 20×30
A(1) = 600 cm²
<h3>Side 2:</h3>As the measurements of the side at the back of side 1 has the same measurement of side 1. then:
A(2) = 600 cm²
<h3>Side 3:</h3>A(3) = L×W
A(3) = 20×5
A(3) = 100 cm²
<h3>Side 4:</h3>As the measurements of the side at the back of side 4 has the same measurement of side 4. then:
A(4) = 100 cm²
<h3>Side 5:</h3>A(5) = H×W
A(5) = 30×5
A(5) = 150 cm²
<h3>Side 6:</h3>As the measurements of the side at the back of side 5 has the same measurement of side 5. then:
A(6) = 150 cm²
<h3>Surface Area:</h3>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

Answer:
Option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are parallel then their slopes are always same.
Following this rule we can find the slope by the given pairs of coordinates of the options.
If the slope of the line is same as the slope of y axis then the line passing through these points will be parallel to the y axis.
Slope of y - axis = ∞
Option A). Slope =
=
=
= 775
Therefore, line passing through points (3.2, 8.5) and (3.22, 24) is not parallel to y axis.
Option B). Slope of the line passing through and
will be
=
= ∞
Therefore, line passing though these points is parallel to the y axis.
Option C). Slope of the line passing through and (7.2, 5.4)
=
= 0
Therefore, slope of this line is not equal to the slope of y axis.
Option B. is the answer.
