Multiple choice?
so do i do LxWxH
I would think, what's messing me up is I don't remember using H before. one sec
i have no clue
@LegendarySadist got a sec? its area
So let's set \[\large \sf L=447\]\[\large \sf W=413\]\[\large \sf H=729\] \[\large \sf SA=(2LW)+(2LH)+(2WH)\]
ok now what
That's it. SA stands for Surface Area
oh
So (2LW) is like LW two times?
A. 1589 ft2 B. 9534 ft2 C. 811,551 ft2 D. 1,623,102 ft2
Yes, since there are two faces that would be LW
this is for the question
so is it A
How did you get A?
i dont know how i got it lol
What do you mean, I gave you the formula and the values, all you had to do was crunch the numbers to get the answer. Do your share.
ok so i jest used a calculator and it gave me 134581419
Much closer, but you are still off so you must have done something wrong. Either way, you should be able to see what the answer is, even if you didn't calculate it exactly right.
im really bad at math like really bad
so LW is 447 + 413?
Plugging in numbers is not difficult, I can't see how anyone is better or worse at it. And @Study312 447 * 413
Ah, I see you were referring to figuring out based on the answer you got
ok so 447*413=184611
Actually, your new answer is still way off, I didn't notice it the first time looking at it.
wait 447*413 does not = 184611
No, it does = 184611
oh ok
Buddy, I can't teach you to read and to plug in values for a formula. Ask someone in real life. This isn't something I can teach over the internet.
ok so now do i do 184611*729
Please just ask someone in real life. No offense to you, but I don't want to take half an hour explaining this. This would be much easier to have explained by someone in real life.
so I got 8,970 from 2 • 447 + 413 • 2 + 447 • 2 + 729 • 2 + 2 • 413 + 729 • 2?
its ok i will
Maybe if you did the first one we could catch on
\[\large \sf SA= (2 \times 447 \times 413) + (2 \times 447 \times 729) + (2 \times 413 \times 729)\]
Thx LegendarySadist, that helps
I did that and I got a number bigger than the calculator 0_0
1 got 1623102
