check the picture below, that's pretty much the same block, or "rectangular prism", with a width of 10, length of 5 and height of 1.
so anyhow, is really 6 rectangles stacked up to each other at the edges, so, we can simply get the area of each of those rectangles, add them up and that's the surface area.
front and back, two rectangles of 5x1
left and right, two rectangles of 1x10
top and bottom, two rectangles of 10x5
Answer:
Yes, each x-value has a unique y-value.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a function because each x-value has its own y-value. If this is not the case then it is not a function, because then, two points with the same x-value and different y-values would fail the VLT.
Your graph does not have overlaps and each x-value has a unique y-value
VLT
The vertical line test (VLT) is a <u>simple method that mathematicians made because</u><u> they were lazy</u><u> to make a table of values and find duplicates. </u>
<u />
A quick way to check if it is a function is by looking for duplicates of x-values and check that the duplicates have the same y-value.
