Using the arrangements formula, it is found that there are 240 ways for the students to sit.

<h3>What is the arrangements formula?</h3>

The number of possible arrangements of n elements is given by the factorial of n, that is:

A_n = n!.

In this problem:

  • The 2 students can sit in 2! ways, in 5 positions(1 and 2, 2 and 3, 3 and 4, 4 and 5 or 5 and 6).
  • The remaining 4 students can sit in 4! ways.

Hence:

T = 5 x 2! x 4! = 240.

There are 240 ways for the students to sit.

notka56 [123]
The volume of the triangular prism is 66 cubic inches. 
In order for us to know the volume of the triangular pyramid, first we need to know the ratio of the volume of triangular prism and the volume of the triangular pyramid.

Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 * volume of the prism.
Volume of the pyramid = 1 / 3 * 66
<span>Volume of the pyramid = 22 cubic inches.
</span>
So the volume of the triangular pyramid is 22 cubic inches.
