Answer:

(a) = 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the surface area of a regular pyramid is B + (1/2*P*l), with B being the area of the base, p being the perimeter of the base, and l being the slant of the pyramid.

The area of a pentagon can be solved using the formula 1/2*a*p, with a being the apothem and p being the perimeter of the pentagon.

  1. B + (1/2*80*15) = 1040
  2. B + 600 = 1040
  3. 1040 - 600 = 440 (440 is the area of pentagon)
  4. 1/2*a*(16*5) = 440
  5. 40*a = 440
  6. 440/40 = 11

The apothem is 11 cm. Hope this helps!

A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between 47.0 and 52.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

0.15 or 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since lengths are uniformly distributed, the probability that a class period runs between a two exact times is:

P(x_1\leq x \leq x_2)=\frac{x_2-x_1}{b-a}

In this case, a = 47.0 and b = 52.0 minutes.

The probability that a given class period runs between 50.25 and 51.0 minutes is:

P(50.25\leq x \leq 51.0)=\frac{51.0-50.25}{52-47} \\P(50.25\leq x \leq 51.0)=0.15=15\%

The probability is 0.15 or 15%.
