If you add all the numbers on the right together you get -35 then you divide by 5 which gives you the average of -7*F
Answer:
increase = 37.38 cm²
You'd like the first way because it took less effort and less chance of a miscalculation.
Step-by-step explanation:
first way:
(just work with the difference in height)
(0.7 x 8.7 x 2) + (0.7 x 18 x 2) = 37.38 cm²
second way:
old total lateral surface area = (31 x 8.7 x 2) + (31 x 18 x 2) = 1655.4
new total lateral surface area = (31.7 x 8.7 x 2) + (31.7 x 18 x 2) = 1692.78
increase = 1692.78 - 1655.4 = 37.38 cm²
x^3 - 3x^2 - 18x
Using the FOIL method, I arrived at my solution!
4*4= 16 + 16= 32 :) You could do 4 * 4 that equals 16 then add 16 to that to get over 28.
