Formula to find the surface area of a triangular prism

Mathematics
1 answer:
AleksAgata [21]3 years ago
3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

In the mensuration of a triangular prism we can find the total surface area by solving for the areas of  individual shape.

The triangular prism consist of

1. three rectangular surfaces

2. two triangular surfaces.

Hence the total surface area is the sum of the areas of the rectangular surface

= (l* w) +( l*w)+(l*w)\\

and the sum of all areas of triangular surfaces

= (\frac{1}{2}bh) + (\frac{1}{2}bh)

<u><em>In summary just find the area of each shape and add them together.</em></u>

If Eric wanted to walk 24,000 steps in 4 days, he would have to walk 6,000 steps each day (24/4=6). The correct answer would be the bottom answer as saying he has already walked 2 days it would be (y=-6,000(2)+24,000) this would simply out to (y=-12,000+24,000) and then (y=12,000).

Suppose that bugs are present in 1% of all computer programs. A computer de-bugging program detects an actual bug with probabili
lawyer [7]

Answer:

(i) The probability that there is a bug in the program given that the de-bugging program has detected the bug is 0.3333.

(ii) The probability that the bug is actually present given that the de-bugging program claims that bugs are present on both the first and second tests is 0.1111.

(iii) The probability that the bug is actually present given that the de-bugging program claims that bugs are present on all three tests is 0.037.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

<em>B</em> = bugs are present in a computer program.

<em>D</em> = a de-bugging program detects the bug.

The information provided is:

P(B) =0.01\\P(D|B)=0.99\\P(D|B^{c})=0.02

(i)

The probability that there is a bug in the program given that the de-bugging program has detected the bug is, P (B | D).

The Bayes' theorem states that the conditional probability of an event <em>E </em>given that another event <em>X</em> has already occurred is:

P(E|X)=\frac{P(X|E)P(E)}{P(X|E)P(E)+P(X|E^{c})P(E^{c})}

Use the Bayes' theorem to compute the value of P (B | D) as follows:

P(B|D)=\frac{P(D|B)P(B)}{P(D|B)P(B)+P(D|B^{c})P(B^{c})}=\frac{(0.99\times 0.01)}{(0.99\times 0.01)+(0.02\times (1-0.01))}=0.3333

Thus, the probability that there is a bug in the program given that the de-bugging program has detected the bug is 0.3333.

(ii)

The probability that a bug is actually present given that the de-bugging program claims that bug is present is:

P (B|D) = 0.3333

Now it is provided that two tests are performed on the program A.

Both the test are independent of each other.

The probability that the bug is actually present given that the de-bugging program claims that bugs are present on both the first and second tests is:

P (Bugs are actually present | Detects on both test) = P (B|D) × P (B|D)

                                                                                     =0.3333\times 0.3333\\=0.11108889\\\approx 0.1111

Thus, the probability that the bug is actually present given that the de-bugging program claims that bugs are present on both the first and second tests is 0.1111.

(iii)

Now it is provided that three tests are performed on the program A.

All the three tests are independent of each other.

The probability that the bug is actually present given that the de-bugging program claims that bugs are present on all three tests is:

P (Bugs are actually present | Detects on all 3 test)

= P (B|D) × P (B|D) × P (B|D)

=0.3333\times 0.3333\times 0.3333\\=0.037025927037\\\approx 0.037

Thus, the probability that the bug is actually present given that the de-bugging program claims that bugs are present on all three tests is 0.037.

Which statements are true about a rectangular pyramid with a height of 9 centimeters and a base with the dimensions of 4
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

- The area of the base of the pyramid, B, is 24 cm

- A rectangular prism with the dimensions of 9 cm by 4 cm by 6 cm will have 3 times volume of this pyramid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a rectangular based pyramid = 1/3{Base area × Height}

Base Area = Length × Breadth

Volume = 1/3{(Length × Breadth) × Height}

Given a rectangular pyramid with a height of 9 centimeters and a base with the dimensions of 4

centimeters by 6 centimeters

Base Area = 4cm × 6cm

Base area = 24cm²

If Height =9cm

Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 × 24 × 9

Volume = 24 × 3

Volume of the pyramid = 72cm³

If the shape is a prism, the volume will be base area × height

= 24 × 9

= 216cm³

It can be seen that volume of rectangular prism = 3 × volume of rectangular pyramid.
