Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I would not agree with Jayna because using the distributive property, you can get:

4(a + 2) = 4(a) + 4(2) = 4a + 8

Jayna did not get the right answer because she did not distribute the 4 to the 2 in a + 2 and she only multiplied a by 4.

Find the total surface area of this cone. Round to the nearest tenth.

leva [86]

Step-by-step explanation:

for given cone:

h = 3 ft, r = 3 ft

Let l be the Slant height of cone.

$\therefore \: l = \sqrt{ {h}^{2} + {r}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {3}^{2} + {3}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{9 + 9} \\ = \sqrt{2 \times 9} \\ \therefore \: l= 3 \sqrt{2} \: ft \\ \\ total \: surface \: area \: of \: cone \\ = \pi \: r(l + r) \\ = 3.14 \times 3(3 \sqrt{2} + 3) \\ = 9.42 \times 3( \sqrt{2} + 1) \\ = 28.26 \times (1.414 + 1) \\ = 28.26 \times 2.414 \\ = 68.21964 \\ \approx \: 68.2 \: {ft}^{2}$

a national park has two options: a $50 pass for all admissions during the year, or a $4 entrance fee each time you enter. Write

frutty [35]

<span>With the variable "y" being used to represent the total cost of going to the park for a year, the first equation would read "y = 50" since it is a one-time, flat cost. The second equation would be "y = 4x", with "x" being used to represent the number of times the person visited the park during the year multiplied by the $4 cost per visit.</span>
