(4⁰ = 1 too small)
4¹ = 4
4² = 16
4³ = 64
4⁴ = 256
(4⁵ = 1,024 too big)
<u>ANSWER</u>
A. (4,12)
<u>EXPLANATION</u>
The equations are:

and

To eliminate a variable we make the coefficients of that variable the same in both equations.
It is easier to eliminate x.
We multiply the first equation by 2 to get:

We add equations (2) and (3).


Divide both sides by 23


Put x=4 into equation (1).






The solution is (4,12)
A. To be able to have the 2 sides ( the 2 triangles) line up correctly, Net A would be the correct one.
B. AB = 3
BC = 5
CD = 9.4
C. Surface area:
9.4 x 5 = 47
9.4 x 3 = 28.2
9.4 x 4 = 37.6
3 x 4 = 12
Total: 47 + 28.2 + 37.6 + 12 = 124.8 sq. in.
1,000 = 10^3 (3 because there are 3 digits after the first one)
2,000 = 2 * 10^3
