To find the surface area you will need to find the area of all 5 surfaces (faces) on the prism. On a triangular prism there are 2 triangular faces and 3 rectangular faces. All 3 rectangular faces are the same and the 2 triangular faces are also the same.
To find the area of the triangular faces, you will use the formula for finding the area of a triangle:
A = 1/2bh
1/2 x 10 x 8.7
A = 43.5 in^2
To find the area of the rectangular faces, you will use the formula for finding the area of a rectangle:
A = bh
10 x 3
A = 30 in ^2
30 + 30 + 30 + 43.5 + 43.5 = 177
The minimum amount of wrapping paper needed for the gift is 177 square inches.
For this problem, it is really important to find who voted on Tuesday first.
90×(3/5)= 54
54 people voted on Tuesday. Since the people who voted on Wednesday was 1/4 of the members who did not vote on Tuesday.
90-54=36×(1/4)=9
9 people voted on Wednesday. Now add Tuesday and Wednesday together to find the ones that didn't vote.
54+9=63;90-63=27
27 people did not vote at all.
The increase in miles would be 11 miles
Complete the table for the function y = 0.1^x
The first step: plug values from the left column into the ‘x’ spot in the formula <u>y=0.1^x</u>.
* 0.1^-2 : We can eliminate the negative exponent value by using the rule a^-1 = 1/a. Keep this rule in mind for future problems. (0.1^-2 = 1/0.1 * 0.1 = 100).
* 0.1^-1 = 1/0.1 = 10
* 0.1^0 = 1 : (Remember this rule: a^0 = 1)
* 0.1^1 = 0.1
Our list of values: 100, 10, 1, 0.1
Now, we can plug these values into your table:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x&y\\2&10\\1&10\\0&1\\1&0.1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dx%26y%5C%5C2%2610%5C%5C1%2610%5C%5C0%261%5C%5C1%260.1%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The points can now be graphed. I will paste a Desmos screenshot; try to see if you can find some of the indicated (x,y) values: [screenshot is attached]
I hope this helped!
