Answer A seems to make the most sense to me<span />
Answer:
6000 square millimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
Side length of the slanting side can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem,
L = sqrt(30^2+40^2) = 50
sufrace area of a triangular prism
= surface area of the end sections + the surface area of the three side faces
= 2*(30*40/2) + 40*(30+40+50)
= 1200 + 4800
= 6000 mm^2
With some simple rearrangement, we can rewrite the numerator as

Then factorizing the difference of squares,
, we end up with

Once you remember the definition of a log, the answer to this question will literally fall out of your pencil.
First, ' Ln ' means 'natural log' ... logs to the base of ' e '.
Definition of the natural log of a number:
In order to get the number, what power do I have to raise ' e ' to ?
OK. What power do you have to raise ' e ' to in order to get 1/e² ?
Isn't 1/e² the same thing as e⁻² ?
So, in order to get 1/e² , you have to raise ' e ' to the -2 power .
In math-speak: Ln(1/e²) = <em><u>-2</u></em> .
Answer:
If is positive, then the parabola opens upward, so the function decreases on and increases on . But if is negative, then just the reverse
