Answer:

Yes, Sierra is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(y + 7) > -3 (4 + 5)

Required

Is she correct

The right parenthesis has 4 + 5.

This can be simplified as: 4 + 5 = 9

So, we have:

4(y + 7) > -3 (4 + 5)

4(y + 7) > -3 *9

The left parenthesis has y + 7.

This cannot be simplified because y is a variable and 7 is a number.

<em>Hence, Sierra is correct.</em>

How can you find the surface area of a composite solid made up of prisms ? (Help)
sammy [17]
Oh, this is easy. For any prism, you find the surface area by finding the are of all the sides. I will post all surface area formulas here, for reference
Cube:



Surface area = 6 × a2




Right circular cylinder:



Surface area = 2 × pi × r2   +  2 × pi × r × h

pi = 3.14
h is the height
r is the radius


Rectangular prism:



Surface area = 2 × l × w  +  2 × l × h  +  2 × w × h 




l is the length
w is the width
h is the height


Sphere:



Surface area = 4 × pi × r2 

pi = 3.14
r is the radius


Right circular cone:



Surface area = pi × r2  +  pi × r ×( √(h2 + r2)) 

pi = 3.14
r is the radius
h is the height
l is the slant height 


Right square pyramid:



Surface area = s2 + 2 × s × l

s is the length of the base
h is the height
l is the slant height

Ghella [55]

Answer:

$643.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let i be the profit realized from the sale and d be the discount made on the sale:

#John's selling price can be calculated by first adding profit, i to $450, the d to the new price as:

P_n=P_o(1+i)+d[P_o(1+i)]\\=450(1+0.3)+0.1[450(1+0.3)]\\\\\\=450\times 1.3+0.1(450\times1.3)\\\\=585+58.5\\\\=643.50

Hence, John will resell the bike at $643.50
