1 answer:

3 0

3/4 =1/3 hour
how long to burn 2 and 1/2

3/4=1/3hour
1/4=1/9 hour
4/4=1=4/9hour
1/2=2/4
1/2=2/9hour

2 and 1/2=1+1+1/2=4/9+4/9+2/9=10/9=9/9+1/9=1+1/9=1 and 1/9

The formula of the area of the equilateral triangle:
$A_\Delta=\dfrac{a^2\sqrt3}{4}\\\\a=3\to A_\Delta=\dfrac{3^2\sqrt3}{4}=\dfrac{9\sqrt3}{4}$

The formula of the area of the rectangle:
$A=width\times length=wl\\\\w=3;\ l=6\\\\A=3\cdot6=18$

$T.A.=2A_\Delta+3A\\\\T.A.=2\cdot\dfrac{9\sqrt3}{4}+3\cdot18=\dfrac{9\sqrt3}{2}+54=(54+4.5\sqrt3)\ in^2$
The formula of the volume of the triangular prism:
$V=A_\Delta\cdot l\\\\V=\dfrac{9\sqrt3}{4}\cdot6=\dfrac{9\sqrt3}{2}\cdot3=\dfrac{27\sqrt3}{2}=13.5\sqrt3\ in^3$

This is a binomial distribution.
p = 0.71, q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.71 = 0.29, n = 20

P(x ≤ 19) =1 - P(x = 20) = 1- 20C20 x (0.71)^(20 - 20) x (0.29)^20 = 1 - 0.29^20 = 1 - 0 = 1
