Answer:
The surface area of the prism is 276 in.²
If you are also looking for the volume of the prism, it is 280.
Step-by-step explanation:
It's hard to find the surface area and the volume of the prism if you're just looking at the net of the 3D shape. There are some unnecessary measurements that will definitely throw you off. I drew a sample prism so it's easier to solve. Check the linked image.
The formula in finding the surface area of a prism is SA = 2(wl + hl + hw), where w is for width, l is for length, and h is for height. The point of all of these calculations is to find the area of 3 different faces of the prism and then you add up all of the areas and multiply the sum by 2 to give you the surface area. Looks a lot but it's worth getting the answer right.
The formula in finding the volume of the prism is V = w * h * l, where w is for width, h is for height, and l is for length. Simple multiplication of 3 different sides and you'll get the volume. I hope this helps and if I am wrong please let me know! :D
Answer:
The company should take a sample of 148 boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The cable TV company whats to know what sample size to take to estimate the proportion/percentage of cable boxes in use during an evening hour.
They estimated a "pilot" proportion of p'=0.20
And using a 90% confidence level the CI should have a margin of error of 2% (0.02).
The CI for the population proportion is made using an approximation of the standard normal distribution, and its structure is "point estimation" ± "margin of error"
[p' ± ]
Where
p' is the sample proportion/point estimator of the population proportion
is the margin of error (d) of the confidence interval.
So
n= 147.28 ≅ 148 boxes.
I hope it helps!
