A skyscraper is a rectangular prism with a height of 398 meters. The bases are squares with sides that are 62 meters. What is the surface area of the skyscraper?

106,392 meters squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a rectangular prism or cuboid is given by:

SA = 2 (lw + wh + lh)

where:

· l is the length of the cuboid.

· w is the width of the cuboid.

· h is the length of the cuboid.

Here we have h = 398 m, l = w = 62 m because this is a square base.

So we get:

SA = 2 ( 398 · 62 + 62² + 398 · 62)

= 2 (24676 + 3844 + 24676)

= 2 · 53196

= 106392 m²

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   (7x + 6y) ( 49x^2 - 42xy + 36y^2)

discussion:

in general, the factorization of a^3 + b^3 is

a^3 + b^ 3 = (a + b) ( a^2 - ab + b^2)

in our case note that 343 = 7^3 and 216 = 6^3 so the equation becomes:

343x^3 + 216y^3 = (7x)^3 + (6y)^3

if you think of a (above) as 7x and b as 6y the factorization becomes

343x^3 + 216y^3 =

((7x + 6y) (   (7x)^2 - 7x*6y + (6y)^2)   =

(7x + 6y) ( 49x^2 - 42xy + 36y^2)
