Answer:

4 [miles].

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the condition 'the entire trip took 5 hours' can be written as (where t_us - time spent upstream, t_ds - time spent downstream)

$t_{us}+t_{ds}=5;$

2) but the distance [D] upstream is equal the distance downstream, then the condition above can be written:

$\frac{D}{V_{us}} +\frac{D}{V_{ds}} =5; \ (V_{us}-rowing \ upstream,V_{ds}-rowing \ downstream);$

3) finally,

$D=\frac{5V_{us}*V_{ds}}{V_{us}+V_{ds}};$

D=5*4/5=4 [miles].

Directions: Solve for x. Please help

aksik [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the whole right side of that triangle is equal to 28 and the lower portion is 21, then we know the upper portion is 7. Set up a proportion using those sides and the fact that the 2 triangles are similar:

$\frac{7}{21} =\frac{x}{18}$ and cross multiply to get

21x = 126 and

x = 6

1. Use the figure below to answer the questions. (a) Solve for x.

Dmitry [639]

Let's see what to do buddy...

_________________________________

The sum of the angles of each n-sided figure is found in the following equation :

$(n - 2) \times 180$

The question's figure is 5-sindes figure

so the sum the angles equal :

$(5 - 2) \times 180 = 3 \times 180 = 540 \\$

So we have :

$90 + 107 + 144 + 138 + x = 54 0 \\$

$479 + x = 540$

Subtract the sides of the equation minus 479

$x = 540 - 479$

$x = 61$

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.

An investigator thinks that people under the age of forty have vocabularies that are different than those of people over sixty y

Kay [80]

Answer:

$t=\frac{(14-20)-0}{\sqrt{\frac{5^2}{31}+\frac{6^2}{31}}}}=-4.28$

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

$p_v =2*P(t_{60}$

The p value is a very low value so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that people under the age of forty have vocabularies that are different than those of people over sixty years of age.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

$\bar X_{1}=14$ represent the mean for sample 1 (younger)

$\bar X_{2}=20$ represent the mean for sample 2 (older)

$s_{1}=5$ represent the sample standard deviation for 1

$s_{f}=6$ represent the sample standard deviation for 2

$n_{1}=31$ sample size for the group 2

$n_{2}=31$ sample size for the group 2

t would represent the statistic

System of hypothesis

We want to test if that people under the age of forty have vocabularies that are different than those of people over sixty years of age, the system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_{1}-\mu_{2}=0$
