The answer is:  "3" .
_______________________________
Use the Pythagorean theorem (for right triangles):

a² + b² = c² ;

in which "a = "side length 1" (unknown; for which we which to solve);

               "b" = "side length 2" = "√3" (given in the figure) ;

               "c" = "length of hypotenuse" = "2√3" (given in the figure);
_____________________________________________________
a² + b² = c² ; 

a² = c² − b² ;

Plug in the known values for "c" and "b" ;

a² = (2√3)²  −  (√3)² ;

Simplify:

(2√3)² = 2² * (√3)² = 2 * 2 * (√3√3)  = 4 * 3 =  12 .

 (√3)²  = (√3√3) = 3 .

a²  = 12 − 3 = 9 .

a² = 9

Take the "positive square root" of EACH SIDE of the equation; to isolate "a" on one side of the equation;  & to solve for "a" ; 

+√(a²)  = +√9 ;

     a = 3 .

The answer is:  "3" .

A research company desires to know the mean consumption of meat per week among people over age 40. A sample of 610 people over a
Papessa [141]

Answer: (3.0,\ 3.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}  (1)

, where \overline{x} = Sample mean

z_{\alpha/2}= Critical z-value

\sigma = Population standard deviation.

n= Sample size.

As per given , we have

n= 610

\sigma=1.1

\overline{x}=3.1

Significance level for 85% confidence : \alpha=1-0.85=0.15

By z-table critical two tailed z-value : z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.075}=1.44

Put all values in (1) , we get

3.1\pm 1.44\dfrac{1.1}{\sqrt{610}}

3.1\pm 1.44\dfrac{1.1}{24.698}

3.1\pm 0.064

=(3.1-0.064,\ 3.1+0.064)=(3.036,\ 3.164)\approx(3.0,\ 3.2)

Hence, the 85% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among people over age 40.  = (3.0,\ 3.2)
