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

PLEASE HELP!! The slope of the line below is 2.5. Write the equation of the line in point-slope
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

y = 2.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

m=2.5 (slope) -->  y=2.5x+b

coordinate : (2,5) 2 is the x coordinate, 5 is the y coordinate

to Find b, input the coordinate --> 5 = 2.5(2) + b

                                                        5 = 5 + b

                                                        0=b

y= 2.5x

This is only since it asked to solve using the point. If you look at the graph, the line intercepts the y-axis at (0,0) so b=0.

hope this helps

A green dice and red dice are tossed. What is the probability that a 4 shows on the green dice and a 5 shows on the red dice?
kupik [55]

Answer:

\frac{1}{36}

Step-by-step explanation:

When you use "and" you multiply the probabilities

Probability to get a 4 is 1/6

Probability to get a 5 is 1/6

Probability to get a 4 with a dice "and" a 5 with the other is 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36
