Answer:

(b) 5, 17

Step-by-step explanation:

You can try the answer choices easily enough.

2 +3×8 ≠ 14

2 +3×5 = 17 . . . . this choice works (5, 17)

2 +3×2 ≠ 20

2 +3×4 ≠ 18

2 +3×10 ≠ 12

Or, you can solve the equation:

x + (2 +3x) = 22

4x = 20 . . . . . . . . subtract 2

x = 5 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

The numbers are 5 and (22 -5) = 17.

Use a net to find the surface Area of the square pyramid The height of the pyramid is 9 yes and the base sides are all 2.5 yrds

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

$Area = 51.68yd^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$h = 9yd$ -- height

$a = 2.5yd$ --- base sides

Required

Determine the surface area

The net is not given. So, I will solve directly.

The surface area is calculated as:

$Area = a^2 + 2a\sqrt{\frac{a^2}{4} + h^2}$

So, we have:

$Area = 2.5^2 + 2*2.5\sqrt{\frac{2.5^2}{4} + 9^2}$

$Area = 6.25 + 5\sqrt{\frac{6.25}{4} + 81}$

$Area = 6.25 + 5\sqrt{1.5625 + 81}$

$Area = 6.25 + 5\sqrt{82.5625}$

$Area = 6.25 + 5* 9.086$

$Area = 51.68yd^2$
