9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $125 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 2 years from 2015 to 2017, the spending on lunches increased by ...

  $800 -550 = $250

That is an average per year of ...

  $250/(2 yr) = $125/yr . . . . average dollar increase per year

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

For costs, it is often true that they follow an exponential curve, not a linear one. Ed's spending increased by a factor of 800/550 = 16/11 in the two years, so an average percentage increase of √(16/11) -1 = 20.6% per year.

What is the surface area of the right prism given below?
posledela

Answer: Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can calculate the surface area of this right prism by adding the area of its faces.

You can observe that the faces of the right prism are:  Three different rectangles and two equal triangles.

The formula for calculate the  area of a rectangle is:

A=lw

 Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

The formula for calculate the  area of a triangle is:

A=\frac{bh}{2}

Where "b" is the base and "h" is the height.

You can observe that the hypotenuse of the each triangle is the width of one of the larger rectangle, then , you can find its value with the Pythagorean Theorem:

a=\sqrt{b^2+c^2}

Where "a" is the hypotenuse and "b" and "c" are the legs of the triangle.

Then, this is:

a=\sqrt{(8units)^2+(15units)^2}=17units

Therefore, you can add the areas of the faces to find the surface area of the right prism (Since the triangles are equal, you can multiply the area of one of them by 2). This is:

SA=(10units)(8units)+(15units)(10units)+(17units)(10units)+2(\frac{(15units)(8units)}{2})\\\\SA=520units^2
