The total surface area of the triangular prism that has a height of h and the side length of a is given below.

\rm a(\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2} \ a + 3h)

<h3>What is a triangular prism?</h3>

A triangular prism is a closed solid that has two parallel triangular bases connected by a rectangle surface.

A box is in the shape of an equilateral triangular prism.

If the box is to be covered with paper on its lateral sides.

Let a be the side length of the equilateral triangle and h be the height of the prism.

Then the surface area of the triangular prism will be

Surface area = 2 × area of triangle + 3 × area of the rectangle

The area of the triangle will be

\rm Area\ of\ triangle = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}a^2}{4}

The area of the rectangle will be

\rm Area \ of \ rectangle = a \ h

Then the total surface area will be

\rm Surface\ area =  2 \times \dfrac{\sqrt3 a^2 }{4} + 3 ah\\\\\\Surface\ area =  a(\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2} \ a + 3h)

More about the triangular prism link is given below.

The Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is an annual tradition in Lexington, Massachusetts. A group of volunteers counts the number of bi
Lerok [7]

Answer:

(5.216) mean = 61.71

(5.217) standard deviation = 8.88

(5.218) P(X>=60) = 0.9238

(5.129) L = 79, U = 69

(5.130) P(X> or = U) = 0.7058

Step-by-step explanation:

The table of the statistic is set up as shown in attachment.

(5.216) mean = summation of all X ÷ no of data.

mean = 432/7 = 61.71 birds

(5.217)Standard deviation = √ sum of the absolute value of difference of X from mean ÷ number of data

S = √ /X - mean/ ÷ 7

= √551.428/7

S = 8.88

(5.218) P (X> or = 60)

= P(Z> or =60 - 61.71/8.8 )

= P(Z>or= - 0.192)

= 1 - P(Z< or = 0.192)

= 1- 0.0762

= 0.9238

(5.219)the 15th percentile=15/100 × 7

15th percentile = 1.05

The value is the number in the first position and that is 79,

L= 79

85th percentile = 85/100 × 7 = 5.95

The value is the number in the 6th position, and that is 69

U = 69

5.130) P(X>or = 60)

= P(Z>or= 69 - 61.71/8.8)

= P(Z> or = 0.8208)

= 1 - P(Z< or = 0.8209)

= 1 - 0.2942

= 0.7058

Basically you just divide:

123/3 = 41

So the sale price of the coat would be $41
