M + 18 = 4M

18 = 4M - M

18 = 3M

M = 18/3 = 6

4M = 4(6) = 24 sold by Luke

Find the lateral area for the prism. L.A. =<br> Find the total area for the prism. T.A. =
Ksivusya [100]
The lateral area of the prism is given by:
LA=[area of the two triangles]+[area of the lateral rectangles]
hypotenuse of the triangle will be given by Pythagorean:
c^2=a^2+b^2
c^2=6^2+4^2
c^2=52
c=sqrt52
c=7.211'
thus the lateral area will be:
L.A=2[1/2*4*6]+[6*8]+[8*7.211]
L.A=24+48+57.69
L.A=129.69 in^2

The total are will be given by:
T.A=L.A+base area
base area=length*width
=4*8
=32 in^2
thus;
T.A=32+129.69
T.A=161.69 in^2

PLEASE HELP ASAP 40 PTS !!!!
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

a  If we make the parent function 2sqrt(x)  then we translate to the left 4 units and up 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

y = sqrt(4x+16) +5

y = sqrt(4 (x+4)) +5

y  = sqrt(4) sqrt(x+4) +5

y =2sqrt(x+4) +5

f(x) = sqrt(x)   this is the parent function

g(x) = sqrt(x+4)   This moves it to the left 4 units

h(x) = 2 sqrt (x+4)    This stretches it by 2 in the y direction

j(x) = 2 sqrt(x+4) +5  This moves it up by 5 units

y = 2sqrt(x+4) +5

This is to the left 4 units, stretched 2 units in the y direction and up 5 units

If we make the parent function 2sqrt(x)  then we translate to the left 4 units and up 5 units

Adam, Barry, and Charles visited a small farmers market last Saturday. Adam purchased 3 dozen eggs, 1 wheel of cheese, and 5 pou
evablogger [386]

Answer:

A pound of potato costs $3.10

A dozen egg costs $5.5

A wheel of cheese costs $6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent

- a dozen egg with D

- a wheel of cheese with W

- a pound of potato with P

For Adam:

3D + W + 5P = 38.25 ---- (1)

For Barry:

D + 10P = 36.50 ---- (2)

For Charles:

2D + 2P = 17.20 ---- (3)

Make D the subject in (2)

D = 36.50 - 10P

Substitute 36.50 - 10P for D in (3)

2(36.50 - 10P) + 2P = 17.20

73 - 20P + 2P = 17.20

73 - 18P= 17.20

Collect Like Terms

- 18P= 17.20 - 73

- 18P= -55.8

18P= 55.8

Solve for P

P = 55.8/18

P = 3.1

Substitute 3.1 for P in D = 36.50 - 10P

D=36.50 - 10 * 3.1

D=36.50 - 31

D=5.5

Substitute 3.1 for P and 5.5 for D in 3D + W + 5P = 38.25

3(5.5) + W + 5(3.1) = 38.25

16.5 + W + 15.5 = 38.25

Solve for W

W = 38.25 - 16.5 - 15.5

W = 6.25
