Answer:

244.92 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out the surface area of 1 fence post.

It has 2 circular parts (a bottom and a top)

r = d / 2

r = 1 / 2

r = 0.5 feet.

Area = 3.14 * 0.5^2

area = 3.14 * 0.25

Area = 0.785

Each post has 2 such shapes. 2 * 0.785 = 1.57

There are 12 posts with areas of 1.57 on the bottom and top  = 18.84 ft^2

Find the area of the long part of the post

h = 6 feet

circumference = 2* pi * r

circumference = 2* 3.14 * .5

circumference = 3.14

The height is 6 feet.

The area of the body of the pole 6 *circumference = 6 * 3.14 = 18.84 ft^2

There are 12 poles.

Total area = 12 *18.84 ft^2 =  226.08

Total area = 12 bodies + 24 ends

Total area = 226.08 + 18.84

Total area = 244.92

A sphere has a volume of 288 Pi in^3. Find the surface area of the sphere
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a sphere is expressed as

Volume = (4/3) × πr³

The volume of the given sphere is expressed as 288π inches³. It means that

(4/3) × πr³ = 288π

4r³/3 = 288

4r³ = 3 × 288 = 864

r³ = 864/4 = 216

Taking cube root of both sides, it becomes

r = 6

The formula for determining the surface area of a sphere is expressed as

Area = 4πr²

π = 3.14

Therefore,

Surface area = 4 × 3.14 × 6² = 452.16 inches²

What is the point slope form of a line that has a slope of 3 and passes through the point (-1,4)
lukranit [14]

Answer:

y - 4 = 3(x- (-1)     --->      y-4 = 3(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 4 = 3(x + 1)

y - 4 = 3x + 3

y = 3x + 7

then plug in (-1,4)

4 = 3(-1) + 7

4 = -3 + 7

4 = 4

Point slope form looks like:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Help me please i dont understand
matrenka [14]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

The line where it says 2cm, extend that line to the top. You know have 2 triangles, call the one on the left A and the one on the right B

area of recntangle = bh

Rect A:

b = 5

h = 4 - 2

h = 2

bh = 5 x 2

bh = 10

Rect B:

b = 3

h = 4

bh = 4 X 3

bh = 12

Total = 10 + 12

Total = 22
