1.) To find the surface area, we want to find the area of each side, then add them all up together:
Area of base=lwA=(5)(5)A=25 cm²
Area of triangle=1/2bhA=(1/2)(5)(12.5)A=31.25 cm²
Since the 4 triangles have the same area, we can multiply the area we found by 4 and then add the area of the square:
SA=(4)(31.25) + 25SA=125+25SA=150 cm²
2.) <span>To find the volume use the formula:
V=(1/3)lwh
V=(1/3)(5)(5)(12.5)
V=104.167 cm^3</span>
Use the hypergeometric distribution.
M=number of Men=5
F=number of women=4
m=number of men elected=2
f=number ow women elected=2.
Assuming equal chance to get elected, then
P(2M,2F)=C(M,m)*C(F,f)/C(M+F,m+f)
=C(5,2)*C(4,2)/C(9,4)
=10*6/126
=10/21
