Question
How do I solve this Surface Area of Composite Figures question?
![**Surface Area of Composite Figures**
---
**Find the surface area of the composite figure.**
[Image Description: A 3D diagram of a composite figure, which includes a red triangular prism sitting on top of a green rectangular prism.]
The dimensions of the triangular prism are as follows:
- Height: 6 inches
- Base: 6 inches
- Triangular faces' dimensions:
- 5 inches
- 3 inches
The dimensions of the rectangular prism are as follows:
- Length: 16 inches
- Width: 7 inches
- Height: 3 inches
\(\boxed{\text{Include the base of the green rectangular prism in your answer.}}\)
Fill in the blank:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = \_\_\_\_ \text{ square in.} \]
(Type your answer in the box provided and press enter.)
---
**Note:**
The surface area of a composite figure is found by calculating the surface area of each individual shape and then adding them together. Ensure to consider and exclude any overlapping surfaces if necessary.

- Let f(t) be the weight (in grams) of a solid sitting in a beaker of water. Suppose that the solid dissolves in such a way that the rate of change (in grams/minute) of the weight of the solid at any time t can be determined from the weight using the forumula: f'(t) : - 3f(t)(6 + f(t)) If there is 3 grams of solid at time t = 2 estimate the amount of solid 1 second later. gramsarrow_forwardI forgot how to do this could i please get some helparrow_forward
