Answer:

Explanation:

in each of the following substitute x with the variables in the bracket.

f(a) = 5x - 6

= 5a - 6

f(a+h) = 5 (a + h) - 6

= 5a + 5h - 6

f(a+h) - f(a) = (5a + 5h - 6) - (5a - 6)

= 5a + 5h - 6 - 5a + 6

= 5h

(as the 5a's and 6's cancel each other out.)

f(a+h) - f(a)/h = 5a + 5h - 6 - ((5a - 6)÷h)

take l.c.m

= (5ah + 5h^2 - 6h - 5a + 6)

The surface area of a cone is 54 square inches. What is the surface area of a similar cone that is three times as large?

12345 [234]

Given:

Given that the surface area of the cone is 54 square inches.

We need to determine the surface area of the cone that is similar to the cone three times large.

Surface area of the similar cone:

Let us determine the surface area of the similar cone.

The surface area of the similar cone can be determined by multiplying the surface area of the cone by 3. Because it is given that the similar cone is three times large.

Thus, we have;

$SA = 3 \times 54$

$SA=162$

Thus, the surface area of the similar cone is 162 square inches.
