You need to find the area of the ceiling, floor, the two rectangle walls and the two trapezoid walls
<u>Area of the ceiling:</u>
c = length * width
c = 9*6.5 = 58.5
<u>Area of the 2 rectangle walls:</u>
w = 2(length * width)
w = 2(9 * 8)
w = 2(72)
w = 144
<u>Area of floor:</u>
f = 9 * 7.5
f = 67.5
<u>Area of the two trapezoids:</u>

a = 6.5
b = 7.5
h = 7.5






Total Surface Area = c + w + f + t
Total Surface Area = 58.5 + 144 + 67.5 + 105
Total Surface Area = 375 
The triangle is drawn and is shown in the image attached with.
We get two similar triangles. Triangle ABC and Triangle ADE. Since the triangles are similar the ratio of their corresponding sides will be the same.
D and E are the midpoints of AB and BC, therefore, AD and AE are both 4 units in length. Using the property of similar triangles, we can say:
AD : DE= AB : BC
AD = 4 units
AB = 8 units
BC = 6 units
DE = unknown = x units
So,

Therefore,
the length of DE will be 3 units
Answer:
B. x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(2x + 3) = 2x + 6 - (8x + 2)
-8x -12 = 2x + 6 - 8x -2
(now, "-8" in both terms is cancelled):
-12 = 2x + 6 - 2
(leave 2x alone in second term):
-12 -6 +2 = 2x
-16 = 2x
-16/2 = x
-8 = x
