Since both triangles have a right-angle, and the two angles at vertex C are also twins, thus both triangles are similar by AA, therefore,

\bf \cfrac{small}{large}\qquad \cfrac{DE}{BA}=\cfrac{EC}{CA}\implies \cfrac{7}{84}=\cfrac{x}{156-x}\implies 1092-7x=84x
\\\\\\
1092=91x\implies \cfrac{1092}{91}=x\implies 12=x\qquad \quad \qquad \boxed{AC=156-12}

Knox save $56 during the summer break. He spent 3/7 of his savings on a pair of baseball cleats. He spent 5/8 of the remaining m
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

12 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

He spent 3/7 of 56

3/7*56 =24

Take the original amount and subtract what was spent

56-24 =32

He has 32 left

He spent 5/8 of that on a bat

5/8 *32 =20

Take the amount of money he had and subtract what was spent

32-20 = 12

He has 12 left

If the null hypothesis is true in a chi-square test, discrepancies between observed and expected frequencies will tend to be
babymother [125]

Answer:

If the null hypothesis is true in a chi-square test, discrepancies between observed and expected frequencies will tend to be small enough to qualify as a common outcome.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to state what will happen if the null hypothesis is true in a chi-square test.

If the null hypothesis is true in a chi-square test, discrepancies between observed and expected frequencies will tend to be small enough to qualify as a common outcome.

This is because at a higher level of discrepancies, there will be a strong evidence against the null. This means that it will be rare to find discrepancies if null was true.

In the question however, since the null is true, the discrepancies we will be expecting will thus be small and common.

How do you get the number 24 with the numbers 2,6,4,1
elena55 [62]

Answer:

(2+6)*(4-1) = 24

(2-1)*(6*4) = 24

(2-1)*6*4 = 24

(2-1)*(4*6) = 24

(2-1)*4*6 = 24

(6+2)*(4-1) = 24

6*(2-1)*4 = 24

6*(2-1)*4 = 24

6/(2-1)*4 = 24

6/(2-1)*4 = 24
