Step-by-step explanation:
the side lengths of the base (the ground triangle) are equal. that means every ground side length is 8 in.
and that also makes the 3 triangles of the side areas of the pyramid equal.
so, for the surface area of the pyramid we need to calculate the area of one side area triangle, multiply it by 3 (as we have 3 side areas) and add the area of the ground triangle.
the area of a triangle is
baseline × height / 2
so, for a side area triangle we get
8 × 14 / 2 = 8×7 = 56 in²
all 3 side areas together are then
3×56 = 168 in²
the ground area triangle is then
8 × 6.9 / 2 = 4 × 6.9 = 27.6 in²
so, the total surface area of the pyramid is
168 + 27.6 = 195.6 in²
It’s simple subtraction the answer is 342
In 4 hours Bethany did the whole fraction 1 of the house.
In 1 hour he would do 1/4 of it.
In 3 hours Colin did the whole fraction 1 of the house.
<span>In 1 hour he would do 1/3 of it.
</span>
In 1 hour they would both do (1/4 + 1/3)
If it takes both of them x hours to finish 1 whole fraction of the house.
In 1 hour they will both do 1/x
That means that:
1/x = 1/4 + 1/3
That is the equation. x can be solved for.
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2=15x
Subtract 15x from both sides
3x^2-15x=0
Factor out 3x
3x(x-5)=0
Since 0 divided by any number is zero, we get that:
x-5=0
x=5
