Answer:

9, 32 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all the sides.  Since you know the perimeter and the expressions for each of the sides, you can set up an equation to solve for the variable and find the values of the other sides:

one side: '4 times the shortest side' = 4s

shortest side: 's'

third side: '23 more than the shortest side' = s + 23

perimeter  = 77

Equation:  4s + s + (s + 23) = 77

Combine like terms:  6s + 23 = 77

Subtract 23 from both sides:  6s + 23 - 23 = 77 - 23 or 6s = 54

Divide by 6:  6s/6 = 54/6 or s = 9

one side: 4s = 4(9) = 36

shortest side: s = 9

third side: s + 23 = 9 + 23 = 32

g Suppose you wish to perform a hypothesis test for a population mean. Suppose that the population standard deviation is known,
NikAS [45]

Answer:

z-test.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to perform an hypothesis test for a population mean.

In the case that the <u>standard deviation of the population is known</u> and the population distribution is normal, even if the sample is small, <u>we will use a z-test</u>.

The usual case is to not know the standard deviation of the population, in which case a t-test is adequate instead of a z-test, taking into account the degrees of freedom of the sample.

12345 [234]

Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + x^2 = 13^2

144 + x^2 = 169

x^2 = 25

square root both sides

x = 5

to check, do 12^2 + 5^2 =169

sqrt of 169 is 13

hope this helps

The base and height of the triangle to the right are multiplied by 4. Describe the change in the area.
Artemon [7]
Area would be 15 if base is 6m and height is 5m
So 6*4=24
5*4=20
Area would be 240 for the 2nd answer

240/15=16

The area is 16x bigger

For a set of data, r = 0.27. Which is true about the correlation of the variables? The variables have no correlation. The variab
VLD [36.1K]
Answer: The variables have a weak positive correlation

Since r > 0, the correlation is positive. It's a weak correlation because r is closer to 0 than it is to 1.
