Find the surface area and show work

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a rectangle can be calculated with:

The surface area of a trapezoid can be calculated with:

Calculate the area of the base, wich is a rectangle:

There are two equal rectangles, therefore, multiply the area of any of them by 2:

Calculate the area of the other rectangle:

There are two equal trapezoids, therefore, multiply the area of any of them by 2:

Therefore, the surface area will be the sum of all the areas calculated:

d is the final answer!

1,407.5 hours

step-by-step explanation:

we first convert all the time to hours and then sum them up.

there are 24 hours in 1 day, in 58 days, there are 24 x 58 = 1,392 hours.

there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, thus, 30 minutes will be equivalent to 30 / 60 = 0.5 hours.

therefore, the number of hours it will take mercury to complete a full rotation is 1,392 + 15 + 0.5 = 1,407.5 hours
