What is the height of the triangular prism below if the volume equals 1,638 cubic millimeters? 65 mm 63 mm 26 mm 28 mm.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

The height of the triangular prism is $26\ mm$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

The volume of the triangular prism is equal to

$V=Bh$

where

B is the area of the triangular base

h is the height of the prism

<em>Find the area of the base B</em>

$B=\frac{1}{2}(7)(18)=63\ mm^{2}$

we have

$V=1,638\ mm^{3}$

$h=x\ mm$

substitute and solve for x

$1,638=(63)x$

$x=1,638/(63)=26\ mm$

What is the probability that a ﬁve-card poker hand contains a ﬂush, that is, ﬁve cards of the same suit?

Liono4ka [1.6K]

$\displaystyle |\Omega|=\binom{52}{5}=\dfrac{52!}{5!47!}=\dfrac{48\cdot49\cdot50\cdot51\cdot52}{2\cdot3\cdot4\cdot5}=2598960\\ |A|=\binom{13}{5}\cdot4=\dfrac{13!}{5!8!}\cdot4=\dfrac{9\cdot10\cdot11\cdot12\cdot13}{2\cdot3\cdot4\cdot5}\cdot4=5148\\\\ P(A)=\dfrac{5148}{2598960}=\dfrac{33}{16660}\approx0.2\%$
