This is a hexagonal prism: Volume = Area of Base (hexagon) x Height:
There are 6 equal equilateral triangles in a hexagone.
The apothem (or altitude of each triangle) = side x (√3)/2 =12(√3)/2 = 6√3
Area of ONE equilateral triangle = (side x altitude)/2:
Area of ONE equilateral triangle = (12 x 6√3)/2 = 36√3 ft²
Area of the SIX equilateral triangles = 36√3 x 6 = 216√3 ft²
VOLUME = BASE X HEIGHT = 216√3 x 15 = 3240√3 ft³
OR VOLUME = 5612 ft³
Answer: a. Area b. 4222.26

t = 6.25 years
(about 6 years 3 months)
Equation:
t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 4%/100 = 0.04 per year,
then, solving our equation
t = (1/0.04)((2500/2000) - 1) = 6.25
t = 6.25 years
The time required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $2,500.00 from simple interest on a principal of $2,000.00 at an interest rate of 4% per year is 6.25 years (about 6 years 3 months).
36:
The two distances are the same (out and back), so set them equal.
That is done by having a (rate)(time) equal a (rate)(time).
One time is “x” and the other is “4.8-x.”
One rate is 460 and the other is 500.
460 x = 500 (4.8 -x)
460 x = 2400 - 500x
900 x = 2400
x = 2.5 hours for the slower plane.
4.8- x = 2.3 hours for the faster plane.
Well it would just be 54 since you just need to move the decimal over by 1.
So 5.4x10= 54
