      <u>ΔACB</u>                                               <u>ΔCDA</u>

AC² + BC² = AB²                           AD² + CD² = AC²  

          BC² = AB² - AC²                 BC² + CD² = AC²        (AD=BC is given)

                                                                 BC² = AC² - CD²

                         AB² - AC² = AC² - CD²         (both sides were = to BC²)

                         AB² + CD² = 2AC²

                         (3)² + (√2)² = 2AC²            (AB=3 and CD=√2 were given)

                          9  +   2    = 2AC²

                               11        = 2AC²

                                \frac{11}{2}        = AC²

                                \sqrt{\frac{11}{2} }     = AC

                                \frac{11\sqrt{2} }{2}      = AC

It would take Delia 3 hours longer to re tile their bathroom by herself than it would for kari to retile on her own. If they wor
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

6hours

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Suppose it took Karl x hours to retile her bathroom,

Then it will take Della 3 hours longer i.e (3+x) hours

If Della and Karl work together or will take them 2 hours

The objective is to determine how long it will take Delia to retile the bathroom alone?

∴

\dfrac{1}{x}+\dfrac{1}{3+x}= \dfrac{1}{2}

\dfrac{x+3+x}{x(3+x)}= \dfrac{1}{2}

\dfrac{2x+3}{3x+x^2}= \dfrac{1}{2}

By cross multiplying, we have:

2(2x+3) = 3x+x²

4x + 6 = 3x + x²

3x + x² - 4x - 6

x² - x - 6 = 0

Using quadratic equation

x² -3x +2x - 6 = 0

x(x - 3) + 2(x - 3) = 0

(x +2) (x - 3) = 0

x + 2 = 0 or x - 3 = 0

x = -2 or x = 3

Since we are concerned about the positive integer,

Then, Karl = x = 3 hours while Della which is (3+x) = 3+3 = 6hours

When we reject the null and the null is true, we have a made a _________ __________.
nydimaria [60]

When we reject the null and the null is true, we have a made a type I error

The null hypothesis in statistics states that there is no difference between groups or no relationship between variables. It is one of two mutually exclusive hypotheses about a population in a hypothesis test.

null hypothesis is denoted as H₀

Reject the null hypothesis when the p-value is less than or equal to your significance level. Your sample data favor the alternative hypothesis, which suggests that the effect exists in the population. When you can reject the null hypothesis, your results are statistically significant.

when the p-value is greater than your significance level, you fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Sometimes , we reject our null hypothesis even when its true

there we made a type I error in hypothesis
