agpole, as shown below: Two ropes, AD and BD, are tied to a peg on the ground at point D. The other ends of the ropes are tied to points A and B on a flagpole. Angle ADC measures 45 degrees and angle BDC measures 30 degrees. The length of DC is 5 multiplied by square root of 3. Angle ADC measures 45° and angle BDC measures 30°. What is the distance between the points A and B on the flagpole?

Answer: 5(√3-1) unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, By the below diagram,

For triangle BDC,

We can write,

tan 30^{\circ}=\frac{BC}{DC}

⇒ \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{BC}{5\sqrt{3}}}

⇒  \sqrt{3}=\frac{5\sqrt{3}}{BC}

⇒ BC=\frac{5\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{3} }

⇒ BC=5\text{ unit}

Now, In triangle ADC,

tan45^{\circ}=\frac{AC}{DC}

⇒ 1=\frac{AB+BC}{DC}

⇒ 1=\frac{DC}{AB+BC}

⇒ 1=\frac{5\sqrt{3}}{AB+5}

⇒ AB+5=5\sqrt{3}

⇒ AB=5\sqrt{3}-5=5(\sqrt{3}-1)\text{ unit}

The owners of an industrial plant want to determine which of two types of fuel (gas or electricity) will produce more useful ene
madreJ [45]

Answer:

d. H0: (\mu_e - \mu_g) = 0 vs. Ha: (\mu_e - \mu_g) \neq 0

Step-by-step explanation:

A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".  

The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".  

The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".  

On this case the Management try to determine if there is a difference in the average investment/quad between using electricity and using gas. So this needs to be on the alternative hypothesis. And the complement of the alternative hypothesis would be on the null hypothesis.  

Null hypothesis :\mu_e = \mu_g

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_e \neq \mu_g

Or equivalently:

Null hypothesis :\mu_e - \mu_g = 0

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_e - \mu_g \neq 0

Other important thing is that on the alternative hypothesis we never can have the symbol equal.  

So on this case the best options is:

d. H0: (\mu_e - \mu_g) = 0 vs. Ha: (\mu_e - \mu_g) \neq 0

Combining like terms with negative coefficients<br><br> −n+(−4)−(−4n)+6
Serjik [45]
Remember, if you add negative four, you're really subtracting four, or if you take away negative four, you're really adding four.

-n+(-4)-(-4n)+6
-n-4+4n+6 simplify
{-n+4n are like terms, so combine them. -n+4n is exactly the same as 4n-n, so flip them around if it helps. Just remember to keep the sign with the right number. Same thing with -4+6.}

Answer:

3n+2

Louise's family traveled 3 10 of the distance to her grandmother's house on Saturday. They traveled 4 7 of the remaining distanc
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

4/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Louise's family traveled 3/10 of the distance to her grandmother's house on Saturday.

Let us represent total distance = 1

The remaining distance left is calculated as:

1 - 3/10

Lowest common denominator = 10

= 10 - 3/10 = 7/10

They traveled 4/7 of the remaining distance on Sunday.

This is calculated as:

= 4/7 × 7/10

= 4/10

What fraction of the total distance to her grandmother's house was traveled on Sunday?
