Question

Please help me I need help with a few homework questions, I will medal and fan!

Answer 1

Bonnie has a container in the shape of a rectangular pyramid. The formula for the surface area of the enclosed space is S = lw + 0.5Ph. Solve for P.

P = S – lw – 0.5h
P = S + lw + 0.5h
P = The quantity S minus l times w all divided by 0.5 times h
P = S divided by the quantity l times w plus 0.5 times h

Answer 2

First take Iw to the left hand side.

Answer 3

Give it a try.

Answer 4

i have tried, but I suck :( @Sachintha do you think you could walk me through it?

Answer 5

For the first step you remove Iw by the right hand side by subtracting Iw from both sides.
\[S - Iw = Iw+0.5Ph-Iw\]

Answer 6

So Iw on right hand side cancel out.

Answer 7

ok

Answer 8

Then you are left with,
\[S-Iw=0.5Ph\]

Answer 9

ok. next would you add Iw to the other side? to cancel out?

Answer 10

No. What we are trying to do is to get an equation for P. So P is left at right hand side.

Answer 11

O.K!?

Answer 12

Finally you divide both sides by 0.5h.
\[\frac{S-Iw}{0.5h}=\frac{0.5Ph}{0.5h}\]
\[P=\frac{S-Iw}{0.5h}\]

Answer 13

so c?

Answer 14

Yeah you are correct. :)

Answer 15

Hope you understood every step.

Answer 16
