Given:

Total number of colored pencils = 16

Colored pencils fit in a box = 8

To find:

The number of boxed that will fit the 16 pencils.

Solution:

According to the question 8 colored pencils will fit in a box. So, we have

8 pencils = 1 box

Multiply both sides by 2.

2×8 pencils = 2×1 box

16 pencils = 2 box

Therefore, 2 boxes are required to fit the 16 colored pencils.

100 points.<br> Find the surface area of the triangular prism. The unit is cm^2

nikklg [1K]

First we find the area of the two triangles on each side (keep in mind that they are equal/congruent to each other):

(24*10)/2 = 120 cm^2

Then you find the areas of the three rectangles that are left:

24*19 = 456 cm^2
26*19 = 494 cm^2
10*19 = 190 cm^2

Finally, to find the surface area of the prism:

120+120+456+494+190 = 1,380 cm^2

Triangle ABC is an oblique triangle. If angle A equals 57°, angle B equals 73°, and AB equals 24 in, what is the length of AC?

natulia [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\huge{\underbrace{\overbrace{\mathfrak{\pink{Answer:}}}}}$

Angle C must = [180 - 73 - 57 ] = [180 - 130] = 50°

And using rhw Law if Sines, we have.....

AB/sin C = AC/sin B → 24/sin(50) = AC/sin(73) → AC = 24*sin(73)/sin(50) = about 29.96 in

What's the answer for 3/4 (x+3)=9

Vitek1552 [10]

We want to solve the equation :

$\displaystyle{ \frac{3}{4}(x+3)=9$

first, multiply both sides by 4:

$\displaystyle{ \cancel{4} \cdot \frac{3}{ \cancel 4 }(x+3)=4\cdot 9$

$\displaystyle{ 3(x+3)=36$

divide both sides by 3:

$x+3=12$

add -3 to both sides:

$x=9$

Answer: x=9
