Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the picture is a triangle ABC with three sides given as 6,11 and 15

By the picture itself we can say that the largest angle is obtuse and hence the triangle is not right angled.

Using the converse of Pythagorean theorem that in a right triangle sides square add upto square of hypotenuse let us check whether this applies to this triangle.

Small sides are 6 and 11

Squaring and adding gives

$6^2+11^2 = 187$

Large side = 11 and square is

$15^2 =225 > 121$

Hence this is not a right triangle but obtuse

So option A is right

Answer:

A) 6^2 + 11^2 is not equal to 15^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if a right triangle is a right triangle you have to use the Pythagorean Theorem, like it is used in A.

6^2 + 11^2 = 15^2

36 + 121 = 225

157 does not equal 225

So this is not a right triangle

1.) There are 6 numbers you can roll on a standard dice: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
There are 3 odd and 3 even. Keep in mind that an odd plus an odd will always be even and an even plus an even will always equal an even. Only if you add an odd and an even will you get an odd.

The chances of getting an even sum are much higher which is why you should choose even.

3.) The formula for finding the area of an equilateral triangle is (<span>√3)/4(a^2) where a is just a side length.

Because the perimeter is 12 and each side of an equilateral triangle is equal, we can divide 12 by 3 sides and get each side is 4. Plug in 4 for a.

</span>(√3)/4(4^2) = (√3)/4(16)

Because (√3)/4 = (1 x √3)/4,
(√3)/4(16) is equal to (16 x √3)/4

You have to divide (16 x √3) by 4. 16/4 = 4, and you only need to divide once to. We get 4√3 as the final answer.

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable estimate for the

Vesna [10]

Answer:

A sample size of at least 1,353,733 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

98% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.02$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99$ , so $Z = 2.327$ .

You would like to be 98% confident that you esimate is within 0.1% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?

We need a sample size of at least n.

n is found when M = 0.001.

Since we don't have an estimate for the proportion, we use the worst case scenario, that is $\pi = 0.5$

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.001 = 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}$

$0.001\sqrt{n} = 2.327*0.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327*0.5}{0.001}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.327*0.5}{0.001})^{2}$

$n = 1353732.25$

Rounding up

A sample size of at least 1,353,733 is required.
