The total area that all of a 3D object's faces cover is the surface area. The surface area of a cube is its surface area, for instance, if we are trying to determine how much paint is needed to paint it. Always expressed in square units.

The entire surface of a three-dimensional shape is referred to as its surface area. A cuboid with six rectangular faces has a surface area equal to the sum of the areas of each face. Alternatively, you can label the cuboid's length, width, and height (l, w, and h), then calculate its surface area (SA) using the formula: SA=2lw+2lh+2hw.

Answer:

  To get black from red ...

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the know the transformation that is applied to the red graph to make it be the black graph.

We note that the vertex of the black graph is (-1, 4), which is 1 unit left and 4 units up from the vertex of the red graph.

The black graph opens downward, and has a slope of ±3 compared to the slope of ±1 for the red graph. This means it has been reflected across the x-axis and scaled by a factor of 3.

The reflection and scaling can both be accomplished by multiplying the function by -3. The translation is accomplished by adding 4 to the function value to shift it up 4 units, and adding 1 to the x-value to shift the graph left 1 unit.

One possible equation is (6b+2)+40 = 90

That equation solves to b = 8

======================================================

Explanation:

The angles (6b+2) and 40 degrees combine to form a right angle, aka 90 degree angle. This is because the upper angle is 90 degrees, so the remaining portion is 180-90 = 90.

So (6b+2)+40 = 90 is one possible equation.

Let's solve for b.

(6b+2)+40 = 90

6b+42 = 90

6b = 90-42

6b = 48

b = 48/6

b = 8

---------------

A slight alternative.

The angles (6b+2), 40, and the 90 degree angle form a straight line.

The three angles add to 180

(6b+2)+(40)+(90) = 180 is another possible equation

6b+132 = 180

6b = 180-132

6b = 48

b = 48/6

b = 8

We can factorize the given expression by expanding the two binomials and then combining like terms.

First, expand the two binomials:

10ab (a − 2b)³ +24ab² (3a − 6b)² = 10ab(a³ - 6a²b + 12ab² - 8b³) + 24ab²(9a² - 36ab + 36b²)

Then, combine like terms:

= 10ab(a³ - 6a²b + 12ab² - 8b³) + 24ab²(9a² - 36ab + 36b²)

= (10a³b - 60a²b² + 120ab³ - 80b⁴) + (216a³b² - 864ab³ + 864b⁴)

= (10a³b + 216a³b² - 60a²b² - 864ab³ + 120ab³ + 864b⁴ - 80b⁴)

= (10a³b + 216a³b² - 60a²b² - 864ab³ + 120ab³ + 864b⁴ - 80b⁴)

= (10a³b - 60a²b² + 120ab³ - 80b⁴) + (216a³b² - 864ab³ + 864b⁴)

= (10a³b + 216a³b² - 60a²b² - 864ab³ + 120ab³ + 864b⁴ - 80b⁴)

= (10a³b - 60a²b² + 120ab³ - 80b⁴) + (216a³b² - 864ab³ + 864b⁴)

= 226a³b² - 824ab³ + 984b⁴

A triangle is a three sided polygon, which has three vertices and three angles which has the sum 180 degrees.

Given that;

The angle of elevation to the top of a tree is 22°.

And, The angle of depression to the base of the tree is 12°.

Now,

Let the height of the rock ledge = x

So, By figure, we get;

Here we can see that the distance between the rock ledge and the base of the tree is 96m . Also the angle of elevation to the top of the tree from the rock is 22° .

Firstly, we can see that,

[tex]\implies \angle CAD =\angle EDA = 12^o\\[/tex]

This is so because they are alternate interior angles .

Now , in ∆ADE ,

[tex]\implies \tan\theta =\dfrac{p}{b}=\dfrac{AE}{ED}\\[/tex]

[tex]\implies \tan 12^o =\dfrac{AE}{96m} \\[/tex]

[tex]\implies AE = 96\tan12^o m \\[/tex]

[tex]\implies AE = 96 (0.21)m \\[/tex]

[tex]\implies AE = 20.16 \ m \\[/tex]

Hence the height of the rock ledge is 20.16 m.

_______________________________________

Part B :-

Now in ∆ACB , we have;

[tex]\implies \tan\theta =\dfrac{BC}{AC} \\[/tex]

[tex]\implies \tan 22^o =\dfrac{BC}{96m} \\[/tex]

[tex]\implies BC = 96\tan 22^o \ m \\[/tex]

[tex]\implies BC = 96(0.4) m \\[/tex]

[tex]\implies BC = 38.4 \ m \\[/tex]

Now the total height of the tree will be = BC + AE

[tex]\implies h_{tree}= BC + AE \\[/tex]

[tex]\implies h_{tree}=38.4\ m + 20.16 \ m =\boxed{58.56\ m} \\[/tex]

Hence the height of the tree is 58.56m.

The constant cost call c is $0.7 and the cost of per minute call m is $0.93.

In algebra, a system of equations consists of two or more equations and looks for ways to solve them all together. A group of equations that have the same set of variables as solutions are referred to as a system of linear equations.

Let the constant cost be c and the per minute cost be denoted by m.

The equation for 5 minutes of the call is:

5.91 = 5m + c

c = 5.91 - 5m

The equation for 10 minutes of the call is:

10.06 = 10m + c

Substitute the value of c in the above equation:

10.06 = 10m + 5.91 - 5m

10.06 - 5.91 = 5m

4.69 = 5m

m = 0.93

Substitute the value of m:

10.06 = 10(0.93) + c

c= 0.7

Hence, the constant cost call c is $0.7 and the cost of per minute call m is $0.93.
