The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the total number of faces in a truncated octahedron (denoted as \( x \)) and a truncated tetrahedron (denoted as \( y \)), and then calculate \( x + y \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Faces of a Truncated Octahedron:** - A truncated octahedron is an Archimedean solid that has two types of faces: hexagonal and square. - Specifically, it has: - **8 hexagonal faces** - **6 square faces** - Therefore, the total number of faces \( x \) is: \[ x = 8 + 6 = 14 \] 2. **Identify the Faces of a Truncated Tetrahedron:** - A truncated tetrahedron is another Archimedean solid that has two types of faces: hexagonal and triangular. - Specifically, it has: - **4 hexagonal faces** - **4 triangular faces** - Therefore, the total number of faces \( y \) is: \[ y = 4 + 4 = 8 \] 3. **Calculate \( x + y \):** - Now that we have both values, we can calculate: \[ x + y = 14 + 8 = 22 \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the value of \( x + y \) is \( \boxed{22} \). ---
