Identify the lateral area and surface area of a regular square pyramid with base edge length 5 in. and slant height 9 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

s = 5 in

l = 9 in

1. Lateral surface area

The general formula for the lateral surface area L of a regular pyramid is

L =½pl

where p represents the perimeter of the base and l the slant height.

The base is a square, so

p = 4 × 5 = 20 in

L = ½pl = ½ × 20 × 9 =

2. Total surface area

Total surface area = lateral surface area + area of base

S = L + B

B = b² = 5² = 25 in²

S = 90 + 25 =

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
