7 0

Answer:

a=9 b=18

Step by-step explanation:

First we will find b.

Because there is no 18 in this set and it's an even set of numbers, this would mean that 18 is not present in the set.

The only way for 18 to the be the mean is for b to equal 19. When calculating the average of 17 and 19 your average, or mean, is 18.

a has to be a number ranging  from 7-12.

Through trial and error, it can be found that the missing value of a is 9.

Hope this helps!

The dimensions of a triangular prism are shown.
Serhud [2]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B.  32 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the two triangular faces has an area of ...

  A = (1/2)bh = (1//2)(6 in)(4 in) = 12 in²

The lateral surface area is the product of the prism height (0.5 in) and the perimeter of the base.

  LA = (0.5 in)(5 in +5 in + 6 in) = 8 in²

So, the total area is the area of the two base and the lateral area:

  SA = 2A +LA

  SA = 2(12 in²) +8 in² = 32 in²

The surface area of the prism is 32 square inches.
