I hope this helps! It’s been a while since I’ve done slope-intercept though, so I might be a little rusty
Answer:
Su=10
Explaination:
So from s to u on the nunebr line is worth 2x-12. So what is s to u worth? Well. S to t on the number line = x-7. T to u =6. And 2 x is worth 12 more than s to u, using th e expression. X has to be at least 8 because otherwise the x-7 wouldn't work, and u might get s to u = 0 or a negative number.
Say x was 13, then 13 - 7 =6. So S to t =6. And r to u =6. So s to u =12. (6+6). Then check if the expression fits this answer of 12. 2x - 12. 2x = 26. 26-12=14, which doesn't match.
Let's try 14. 14-7=7. Then s to u = 7+6=13. The expression: 2x= 28. 28-12=16. 13 and 16 dont match. So we have got further away from what we need. Why don't we try going in the opposite direction. Rather than testing 13 and +1, let's now - 1 and try 12.
If x=12, then s to t =12-7=5. And s to u =6+5=11. The expression: 2x=24.-12=12. We are very close now with 11 and 12.
Lets test x=11!
S to t = 11-7=4. 4+6=10. So s to u =10.
2x=22. 22-12=10. So the expression works and the number line measurements.
The answer is su=10 and x=11.
Answer:
90 sq inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The lateral area is the side area of the pyramid. In this case, there are 3 sides because the base is a triangle. Since the base is an equilateral triangle, all sides are of equal dimensions. So, the sides of the pyramid are also all of the same size, area.
We then just have to figure out the area of one of the side triangles, then multiply it by 3 to get the total lateral area of that pyramid.
We know how to calculate the area of a triangle: A = (b * h)/2
In this case, b = 5 in, h = 12 in. So,
TA = (5 * 12)/2 = 60 / 2 = 30
Each side triangle has an area of 30 sq inches.
LA = 3 * TA (since there are 3 sides)
LA = 3 * 30 = 90 sq inches
The screenshot below will give you the answer and the explanation
