32. The top of a gazebo in a park is in the shape of a regular pentagonal pyramid. Each side of the pentagon is 10 feet long. If the slant height of the roof is about 6.9 feet, what is the lateral roof area to the nearest tenth?

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1

see the picture for the graph.

it would be a on edgenuit y

the diagram below is your final answer

the answer is:

the correct option is the option b.

to calculate the surface area of the right cylinder, we need to use the following formula:

from the picture we know that:

so, substituting and calculting we have:

hence, we have that the correct option is the option b.

have a nice day!
