I’ll give you brainliest for the first person with an answer
raketka [301]

Answer:

1296mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism to the left on top of the box:

Area of square = lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm, then multiply by 2 because 2 of the squares are a part of the surface, giving <u>162mm^2</u>

Area of a rectangle =lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm, then multiply by 2 again, because 2 rectangles are a part of the surface, giving <u>162mm^2</u>

So, the total surface area of the rectangular prism to the left on top, is 324mm^2

Surface Area of the Triangular Prism:

Area of a triangle: 1/2bh, and our base length would be 12, because we have to subtract 9 from 21 since the base length of the triangle isn't stated. Anyways, A = 1/2bh, so A = 1/2(12)(9) = 54mm^2, but multiply by two, so we get <u>108mm^2</u>.

Area of the rectangle: lw, so 15mm * 9mm = <u>135mm^2</u>

So, the total surface area of the triangular prism is 243mm^2

Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism at the bottom:

Area of the long rectangles in front = lw, 21mm * 9mm = 189mm^2, multiply by 2, <u>378mm^2</u>

Area of the rectangles to the side = lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm^2, multiply by 2, <u>162mm^2 </u>

Area of the rectangle at the very bottom = lw, 21mm * 9mm = <u>189mm^2</u>

So, the total surface area of the rectangular prism at the bottom is 729mm^2

Add all the total surface areas of each shape to get the total surface area of the figure:

324mm^2 + 243mm^2 + 729mm^2 = 1296mm^2

The surface area of the figure above is 1296mm^2

Ella has 0.5 lb of sugar. how much water should she add to make the following concentrations? Tell Ella how much syrup she will
makkiz [27]

Answer:

For 50% syrup, add 0.5 lb of water for 1 lb of syrup; for 5% syrup, add 9.5 lb of water for 10 lb of syrup; for 75% syrup, add 0.17 lb of water for 0.67 lb of syrup; for 1.5% syrup, add 32.8 lb of water for 33.3 lb of syrup.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of water added.  This means the total mass of the syrup is represented by 0.5+x.

To find percentages, we divide the part by the whole.  For a 50% syrup, we need the part (sugar) compared to the whole (sugar + water) to equal 50%, or 0.50:

Multiply both sides by 0.5+x:

Using the distributive property, we have

0.5 = 0.5(0.5)+0.5(x)

0.5 = 0.25+0.5x

Subtract 0.25 from each side:

0.5-0.25 = 0.25+0.5x-0.25

0.25 = 0.5x

Divide both sides by 0.5:

0.25/0.5 = 0.5x/0.5

x = 0.5

For 50% syrup, add 0.5 lb of water.  This makes the total mass 0.5+0.5 = 1 lb.

For 5% syrup, we change the equation to equal 0.05 (5% = 5/100 = 0.05) and leave everything else the same:

Multiply both sides by 0.5+x:

Using the distributive property,

0.5 = 0.05(0.5)+0.05(x)

0.5 = 0.025 + 0.05x

Subtract 0.025 from both sides:

0.5-0.025 = 0.025+0.05x-0.025

0.475 = 0.05x

Divide both sides by 0.05:

0.475/0.05 = 0.05x/0.05

x = 9.5

For 5% syrup, add 9.5 lb of water; the total mass will be 9.5+0.5 = 10 lb.

For 75% syrup, set the equation equal to 0.75:

Using the distributive property,

0.5 = 0.75(0.5)+0.75(x)

0.5 = 0.375 + 0.75x

Subtract 0.375 from each side:

0.5 - 0.375 = 0.375 + 0.75x - 0.375

0.125 = 0.75x

Divide both sides by 0.75:

0.125/0.75 = 0.75x/0.75

0.17 = x

For 75% syrup, add 0.17 lb of water; the total mass is 0.17+0.5 = 0.67 lb.

For 1.5% syrup, set the equation equal to 0.015:

Using the distributive property,

0.5 = 0.015(0.5) + 0.015(x)

0.5 = 0.0075 + 0.015x

Subtract 0.0075 from each side:

0.5-0.0075 = 0.0075 + 0.015x - 0.0075

0.4925 = 0.015x

Divide both sides by 0.015:

0.4925/0.015 = 0.015x/0.015

32.8 = x

For 1.5% syrup, use 32.8 lb of water; the total mass is 32.8+0.5 = 33.3 lb.

I hope this is right and have a good day
