Split the surface area into geometric shapes as shown in the figure below.
Top part
The area of one triangle is
A₁ = (1/2)*(10 cm)*(4 cm) = 20 cm²
There are 3 of these triangles.
Vertical sides..
The area of one vertical side is
A₂ = (10 cm)*(6 cm) = 60 cm²
There 3 of them.
Bottom part
The triangle is equilateral with each side = 10 cm, and each angle = 60 deg.
The area is (from the Law of Sines) equal to
A₃ = (1/2)(10 cm)*(10 cm)*sin(60) = 43.3 cm²
The total surface area is
3A₁ + 3A₂ + A₃
= 3*20 + 3*60 + 4.3
= 283.3 cm²
Answer: The surface area is 283.3 cm²
In scientific notation, in would be 6.3825*10 to the 4th power

Answer:
a) For this case we can use the definition of weighted average given by:

And if we replace the values given we have:

b) 
c) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the following question: "One sample has a mean of M=8 and a second sample has a mean of M=16 . The two samples are combined into a single set of scores.
a) What is the mean for the combined set if both of the original samples have n=4 scores
"
For this case we can use the definition of weighted average given by:

And if we replace the values given we have:

b) what is the mean for the combined set if the first sample has n=3 and the second sample has n=5
Using the definition we have:

c) what is the mean for the combined set if the first sample has n=5 and the second sample has n=3
Using the definition we have:
