8 0

This is not a solution. When plugged in,
8 > 20 + 4.
8 > 24, which is not true. :)

What else would need to be congruent to show that abc = xyz by asa

pochemuha

Since you're working with the ASA postulate, you're looking to show congruence of the angles at either end of a side. You're given side AC and angle A as congruent with their counterparts. Obviously, you also need to show congruence of angle C with its counterpart, angle Z.

What is the value of y in the sequence below? 2,y,18, -54,162,

snow_lady [41]

First, let's check if the sequence is geometric or arithmetric.

If arithmetric, the sequence will have common difference.

Arithmetric

$\displaystyle \large{a_{n + 1} - a_n = d}$

d stands for a common difference. Common Difference means that sequences must have same difference after subtracting.

Geometric

$\displaystyle \large{ \frac{a_{n + 1}}{a_n} = r}$

r stands for a common ratio.

To find the value of y, you can check the sequence. If we try subtracting the sequences, the differences are different. That means the sequences are not arithmetric. That only leaves the geometric sequence.

Let's check by dividing sequences.

We have:

2,y,18,-54,162,...

Let's check by divide -54 by 18 and 162 by -54. We need to divide more than one so we can prove that the sequence is geometric.

$\displaystyle \large{ \frac{ - 54}{18} = - 3 } \\ \displaystyle \large{ \frac{ 162}{ - 54} = - 3}$

Hence, the sequence is geometric.

Because the common ratio is -3. Let these be the following:

$\displaystyle \large{ a_{n + 1} = y } \\ \displaystyle \large{ a_n = 2 } \\ \displaystyle \large{ r = - 3 }$

From the:

$\displaystyle \large{ \frac{a_{n + 1}}{a_n} = r}$

Substitute the values in.

$\displaystyle \large{ \frac{y}{2} = - 3}$

Multiply the whole equation by 2 to isolate y.

$\displaystyle \large{ \frac{y}{2} \times 2 = - 3 \times 2} \\ \displaystyle \large{ y = - 6}$

Therefore, the value of y is -6.

A dairy scientist is testing a new feed additive. She chooses 13 cows at random from a large population of cows. She randomly as

Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective of this experiment is to test if a new feed + additive generates a better production of milk in cows. For this, the owner selects 13 cows and randomly separates them into two groups.

Group 1 has 8 cows that receive the new feed + additive.

Group 2 has 5 cows that were fed with the old feed.

After two weeks of feeding the animals with the different feeds, the production of milk of each group was recorded so that they can be compared.

Since you have two separate groups to wich at random two different treatments were applied and later the variable was measured, these two samples/groups are independent and the proper test to compare the population means of the milk production in both groups is a pooled t.

I hope this helps!
