The length of the shortest side of the hexagon is; 41.833 inches

<h3>How to find the perimeter of a Polygon?</h3>

Let the length of the shortest side of the hexagon be x. Now, a hexagon has six sides and if the next side is 10 inches longer than the previous side, then the length of the six sides are;

x, x + 10, x + 20, x + 30, x + 40, x + 50

Perimeter is given as 401 inches. Thus;

x + x + 10 + x + 20 + x + 30 + x + 40 + x + 50 = 401

6x + 150 = 401

6x = 401 - 150

6x = 251

x = 251/6

x = 41.833 inches

Write the standard form of the line that passes through the given points. Include your work in your final answer. Type your answ
Oksanka [162]
Standard form is ax+by=c

first we use
y-y1=m(x-x1)
a point is (x1,y1)
the slope is m


the slope between the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(1,1) and (3,4)
slope=(4-1)/(3-1)=3/2

a oint is (1,1) and slope is 3/2
y-1=3/2(x-1)
y-1=3/2x-3/2
solve for ax+by=c form, a is normally positive and a and b and c are whole numbers
times 2 both sides
2y-2=3x-3
minus 2y
-2=3x-2y-3
add 3
1=3x-2y
3x-2y=2

on a scale drawing, 5 metres is represented by 4 centimetres. write the scale as a ratio in it's simplest form.​
ryzh [129]

Answer:

<em>The scale factor is 1:125</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling</u>

Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which consists of multiplying or dividing by a constant factor. We use scaling when representing geographic locations on a map.

On a scale drawing, a distance of 5 meters = 500 cm is represented by 4 centimeters. The scale factor is usually represented as a ratio of the smallest to the biggest magnitude:

\frac{4}{500}=\frac{1}{125}

The scale factor is 1:125

Based on an indication that mean daily car rental rates may be higher for Boston than for Dallas, a survey of eight car rental c
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

t=\frac{(47 -44)-(0)}{3\sqrt{\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}}}=2.058

The degrees of freedom are:

df=8+9-2=15

And the p value would be:

p_v =P(t_{15}>2.058) =0.0287

Since we have a p value lower than the significance level given of 0.05 we can reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean for car rental rates in Boston are significantly higher than those in Dallas

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

n_1 =8 represent the sample size for group Boston

n_2 =9 represent the sample size for group Dallas

\bar X_1 =47 represent the sample mean for the group Boston

\bar X_2 =44 represent the sample mean for the group Dallas

s_1=3 represent the sample standard deviation for group Boston

s_2=3 represent the sample standard deviation for group Dallas

We can assume that we have independent samples from two normal distributions with equal variances and that is:

\sigma^2_1 =\sigma^2_2 =\sigma^2

Let the subindex 1 for Boston and 2 for Dallas we want to check the following hypothesis:

Null hypothesis: \mu_1 \leq \mu_2

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_1 > \mu_2

The statistic is given by this formula:

t=\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu_2)}{S_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}

Where t follows a t student distribution with n_1+n_2 -2 degrees of freedom and the pooled variance S^2_p is given by this formula:

\S^2_p =\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1 +(n_2 -1)S^2_2}{n_1 +n_2 -2}

Replacing we got:

\S^2_p =\frac{(8-1)(3)^2 +(9 -1)(3)^2}{8 +9 -2}=9

And the deviation would be just the square root of the variance:

S_p=3

The statitsic would be:

t=\frac{(47 -44)-(0)}{3\sqrt{\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}}}=2.058

The degrees of freedom are:

df=8+9-2=15

And the p value would be:

p_v =P(t_{15}>2.058) =0.0287

Since we have a p value lower than the significance level given of 0.05 we can reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean for car rental rates in Boston are significantly higher than those in Dallas
