Answer:

b. 2.01 < σ < 2.81

Step-by-step explanation:

The 90% confidence interval for the population standard deviation is calculated as:

\sqrt{\frac{(n-1)*s^{2} }{X^2_{\alpha/2 } } }    < σ < \sqrt{\frac{(n-1)*s^{2} }{X^2_{1-\alpha/2 } } }

Where n is equal to 51, s is equal to 2.34, \alpha is 10%, X^{2} _{\alpha /2} is the value for the Chi squared distribution with n-1 degrees of freedom that has a probability of \alpha /2 in the right tail and X^{2} _{1-\alpha /2} is the value for the Chi squared distribution with n-1 degrees of freedom that has a probability of 1-\alpha /2 in the right tail.

So, replacing n by 51, s by 2.34, X^{2} _{\alpha /2} by 67.50 and X^{2} _{1-\alpha /2} by 34.76, we get that the The 90% confidence interval is equal to:

\sqrt{\frac{(51-1)*2.34^{2} }{67.50} } } < σ <\sqrt{\frac{(51-1)*2.34^{2} }{34.76} } }

2.01 < σ < 2.81

The base of a triangle is 2 more than twice the height of the triangle. Find the measure of the base and the height if the area
vekshin1
B = 2 + 2H 
A = 20 ft^2
H = H

Since the Area of a Triangle is Base * Height then the formula should be:
A = BH
20 = H(2+2H)
20 = 2H^2 + 2H
0 = 2H^2 + 2H - 20 

Find the zeros of the quadratic equation through substituting the values of a,b, and c. You will get the zeros of x = 2.7 and -3.7. The only thing that would make sense is you use the x=2.7 because there are no negative heights.

Since b = 2h+2 
b= 2(2.7) + 2
b= 5.4 + 2 
b=7.4

I don't know where you got 4 and 10, but what I got is different.

Trava [24]

2 half dollars just mean a dollar. In that case, that's 10 dimes. (10*10=100)
