T= number of minutes

Multiply 5 liters by number of minutes (t), then add the 17 liters already in the tank. This totals 72 liters or more.

17 + 5t ≥ 72
subtract 17 from both sides

5t ≥ 55
divide both sides by 5

t ≥ 11 minutes


ANSWER: Laura could add water for 11 minutes to be sure the tank has 72 liters or more.

Hope this helps! :)

Cam's tent (shown below) is a triangular prism. Find the surface area, including the floor, of his tent.
SVEN [57.7K]

The surface area of the tent is 21.4 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of a prism you must calculate:

1. The perimeter of the base

2. The area of the base

3. The height of the prism

We have a triangular prism:

Its base is an equilateral triangle of side length 2 m and height 1.7 m

The height of the prism is 3 m

∵ The surface are of the prism is:

   S.A = perimeter of the base × height + 2 × area of the base

∵ The perimeter of the equilateral triangle = 3 × length of a side

∵ The length of the side = 2 m

∴ The perimeter of the base = 3 × 2 = 6 m

∵ The area of the triangle = \frac{1}{2} × base × height

∵ The length of the base of the triangle = 2 m

∵ The height of the triangle = 1.7 m

∴ The area of the base = \frac{1}{2} × 2 × 1.7 = 1.7 m²

∵ S.A = perimeter of the base × height + 2 × area of the base

∵ The perimeter of the base = 6 m

∵ The area of the base = 1.7 m²

∵ The height of the prism = 3 m

∴ S.A = 6 × 3 + 2 × 1.7

∴ S.A = 18 + 3.4

∴ S.A = 21.4 m²

The surface area of the tent is 21.4 m²

Assume each figure shown has the same orientation. Which figure is the image of square LMNP after a translation of
umka21 [38]

Figure 4 is the image of the square LMNP after the translation.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let us see the coordinates of the pre image LMNP as,

L (-3,1)

M(-1,1)

N(-1,-1)

P(-3,-1)

after translation of (x,y) → (x+5, y -3) the coordinates of the image obtained as,

L'(2,-2)

M'(4,-2)

N'(4,-4)

P'(2,-4) which matches the image 4.
