Hello
Answer:
It has open-ended lines that will not form a polygon
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the parent function 
The graph of this function is represented as red graph in attached diagram.
Now consider the function 
Remind main translations of the graph of the function 
- translation a units to the right;
- translation a units to the left;
- translation a units up;
- translation a units down.
In your case, the graph of the function 
is translated graph of the function 
2 units to the left (blue graph). So, correct answer is option A.
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
