9514 1404 393

Answer:

  21

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the given ratio, we can find the ratio of boys to the total.

  boys : (boys +girls) = 7 : (7+8) = 7 : 15

Then the number of boys is ...

  (7/15)(45) = 21

There are 21 boys in the classroom.

Solid: A square pyramid. The square base has side lengths of 5. The 4 triangular sides have a base of 5 and height of 7. What is
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

95 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of pyramid = 4(side area) + base

Solve for the base first.

Area of base = s*s = 5*5 = 25

Next solve for one of the sides.

Area of triangle = 1/2 b*h = 1/2 5*7 = 17.5

Plug these back into our original equation.

Surface area of pyramid = 4(side area) + base

Surface area of pyramid = 4(17.5) + 25

Surface area of pyramid = 70 + 25 = 95 square units
