Because they are parallel they have the same slope so m= 3
and then we can use the formula
(y-yo)=m (x-xo)
where 1 is xo and 3 is yo
after substitution
y-3=3x-3

y=3x+0

If the line is parallel, it will have the same slope but a different y intercept.
So, so far y=3x+b.
Because we know that this parallel line goes through (1,3), we can substitute these co-ordinates to get b:
3=(3 x 1)+b
3=3+b
0=b
So the equation of the parallel line is as follows:
y=3x+0

2. A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 15 cm. What are possible lengths for the two legs of the triangle? Explain your reasonin

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Two possible lengths for the legs A and B are:

B = 1cm

A = 14.97cm

Or:

B = 9cm

A = 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle rectangle, Pythagorean's theorem says that the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the hypotenuse squared.

Then if the two legs of the triangle are A and B, and the hypotenuse is H, we have:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

If we know that H = 15cm, then:

A^2 + B^2 = (15cm)^2

Now, let's isolate one of the legs:

A = √( (15cm)^2 - B^2)

Now we can just input different values of B there, and then solve the value for the other leg.

Then if we have:

B = 1cm

A = √( (15cm)^2 - (1cm)^2) = 14.97

Then we could have:

B = 1cm

A = 14.97cm

Now let's try with another value of B:

if B = 9cm, then:

A = √( (15cm)^2 - (9cm)^2) = 12 cm

Then we could have:

B = 9cm

A = 12cm

So we just found two possible lengths for the two legs of the triangle.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

$t=\frac{669-634}{\frac{732}{\sqrt{1700}}}=1.971$

$p_v =2*P(t_{(1699)}>1.971)=0.049$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is different from 634 at 10% of signficance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=669$ represent the sample mean

$s=732$ represent the sample standard deviation

$n=1700$ sample size

$\mu_o =68$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is different from 634, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 634$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 634$

If we analyze the size for the sample is > 30 but we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{669-634}{\frac{732}{\sqrt{1700}}}=1.971$

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

$df=n-1=1700-1=1699$

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(t_{(1699)}>1.971)=0.049$

In a representative sample of 1000 adult Americans, only 400 could name at least one justice who is currently serving on the U.S

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

1) z = -6.32

2) p-value = 0.001 × 10^(-2)

3) we will reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is enough evidence to support the claim that fewer than half of adult Americans can name at least one justice currently serving on the Supreme Court

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that In a representative sample of 1000 adult Americans, only 400 could name at least one justice.

Thus:

Sample proportion; p^ = 400/1000 = 0.4

Sample size: n = 1000

We want to find if there is convincing evidence to support the claim that fewer than half of adult Americans can name at least one justice.

Thus, the hypothesis is defined as;

Null hypothesis:H0: p ≥ 0.5

Alternative hypothesis: Ha < 0.5

Formula for the test statistic is;

z = (p^ - p)/√(p(1 - p)/n)

Plugging in the relevant values;

z = (0.4 - 0.5)/√(0.5(1 - 0.5)/1000)

z = -6.32

From online p-value from z-score calculator attached, using z = -6.32; significance level of 0.01; one tailed hypothesis;

We have:

p-value = 0.00001 = 0.001 × 10^(-2)

The p-value is less than the significance level and so we will reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is enough evidence to support the claim that fewer than half of adult Americans can name at least one justice currently serving on the Supreme Court
