Find the surface area of the following figure with the given dimension

andrezito [222]

Answer:

The surface area is 54 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached figure

Required

The surface area

This is calculated as:

$SA = 2(LW + LH + HW)$

Where

$L = Length\\ W = Width\\ H = Height\\$

So,

$SA = 2 * (3 * 3 + 3 * 3 + 3 * 3)$

$SA = 54$

PLS HELP.... If 4x^2 + bx + 9 = 0, where b is the constant, has exactly one solution, what is a possible value of b ?

IgorLugansk [536]

You can use the discriminant rule, which is :
b^2 -4ac
“exactly one solution” means that it is equal to zero
so:
b^2 -4(4)(9)=0
b^2 -4(36)=0
b^2 -144=0
b^2=144
square root both sides
b=12 or -12

hope this helps !
