check the picture below.
so the triangular prism is really just 3 rectangles and 2 right-triangles,
now, we know the base of one of the triangles is 2.6, what's its height?
since it's a right-triangle, we can simply use the pythagorean theorem to get "h".
so, we can now, simply get the area of both of the triangles and the three rectangles and sum them up, and that's the area of the triangular prism.

Answer:
C. -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.
We know that line <em>m </em>is perpendicular to line <em>l. </em>
Line <em>l </em>has a slope of 2/3. To find the slope of line <em>m, </em>find the negative reciprocal of 2/3.
Negative: switch the sign
2/3 --> -2/3
Reciprocal: switch the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number)
-2/3 --> -3/2
Line <em>m</em> has a slope of -3/2 and C is correct.
A = event the person got the class they wanted
B = event the person is on the honor roll
P(A) = (number who got the class they wanted)/(number total)
P(A) = 379/500
P(A) = 0.758
There's a 75.8% chance someone will get the class they want
Let's see if being on the honor roll changes the probability we just found
So we want to compute P(A | B). If it is equal to P(A), then being on the honor roll does not change P(A).
---------------
A and B = someone got the class they want and they're on the honor roll
P(A and B) = 64/500
P(A and B) = 0.128
P(B) = 144/500
P(B) = 0.288
P(A | B) = P(A and B)/P(B)
P(A | B) = 0.128/0.288
P(A | B) = 0.44 approximately
This is what you have shown in your steps. This means if we know the person is on the honor roll, then they have a 44% chance of getting the class they want.
Those on the honor roll are at a disadvantage to getting their requested class. Perhaps the thinking is that the honor roll students can handle harder or less popular teachers.
Regardless of motivations, being on the honor roll changes the probability of getting the class you want. So Alex is correct in thinking the honor roll students have a disadvantage. Everything would be fair if P(A | B) = P(A) showing that events A and B are independent. That is not the case here so the events are linked somehow.
Answer:
1. Technically 2, but might be 0 in your teacher's opinion.
2. 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving problem one.
So I don't know if you have learned about imaginary numbers, but if you have, then you would end up with two answers if you plugged in the quadratic formula.
If you haven't learned about imaginary numbers, then I would say your best option would be to write 'No real solution' since there are technically 2 solutions.
Solving problem two.
Turns out this quadratic has a special property and it's actually a square of one equation. You can find out by just factoring the equation.
It's (3x-2)^2. Since it's squared, that means that only 2/3 would work as x in this equation.
