Answer:

1) The volume of the frustum is 27·(√3)·h

2) The surface area the frustum is 24·h + 54·√3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) A frustum of the regular triangular prism is a portion of the triangular prism

The length of the edge of the triangle prism = 12

The area of the triangular face, A = (√3/4)·a²

∴ A = (√3/4)·12² = 36·√3

When

The volume of the triangular prism, V = A·h = (36·√3)·h

By triangle proportionality theorem, the cross sectional area of the top half of the triangular prism =  (√3/4)·6² = 9·(√3)

The volume of the top half, V₂ = 9·(√3)·h

The volume of the frustum = V - V₂ = (36·√3)·h - 9·(√3)·h = 27·(√3)·h

The volume of the frustum = 27·(√3)·h

2) The surface area of the triangular side of the frustum is given as follows;

A = 36·√3- 9·(√3) = 27·(√3)

The surface area the frustum, F_A = 2×27·(√3) + 2 ×6 ×h + 12×h = 24·h + 54·√3

The surface area the frustum = 24·h + 54·√3

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

n= 3 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8n= 5/6 + 1/3

3/8n = 7/6

n = 7/6  ÷ 8/3

n=28/9

n= 3 1/9

2. Five students reported the amount of time (in minutes) they spent studying for an AP Statistics test the night
8090 [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Standard deviation of 10 mean the fluctuation for values range from +10 to -10 from the mean.

b) Since the sixth student is 50 minutes, which is higher than the mean of 45 minutes, this will bring the over all mean higher that 45 minutes.  Also, since 50  falls within the standard deviation range (35  to 55), this mean the new standard deviation will be smaller than 10.
