Sarah has a stack of 8 plates, each plate is 0.5 inches tall and she is trying to wrap them as a gift. If each plate has a diameter of 10 inches, what is the approximate amount of wrapping paper she will need to cover the plates

283 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Stacking 8 plates with height of each being 0.5 inch will form a cylinder with height 4 inches.

The radius of the cylinder is half the diameter

The total surface area of this cylinder is:

We substitute the values to get:

She will need approximately 283 square inches of wrapping

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
