Just need help on this one problem about a triangle

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rainbow [258]3 years ago
4 0

Given:

ΔABC is an equilateral triangle.

AB = 7.5x, BC = 6x + 3 and CA = 10x - 5

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

In equilateral triangle, all sides are equal.

AB = BC = CA

7.5x=6x + 3 = 10x - 5

Take any two sides only:

AB = BC

7.5 x=6 x+3

Subtract 6x from both sides.

7.5 x-6 x=6x+3-6x

1.5 x=3

Divide by 1.5 on both sides.

$\frac{1.5 x}{1.5}=\frac{3}{1.5}

x=2

The value of x is 2.

A driver's education course compared 1,500 students who had not taken the course with 1,850 students who had. Of those students
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

P-value is less than 0.999995 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a driver's education course compared 1,500 students who had not taken the course with 1,850 students who had.

Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p_1 = p_2 {means students who took the driver's education course and those who didn't took have same chances to pass the written driver's exam the first time}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_1 : p_1 > p_2 {means students who took the driver's education course were more likely to pass the written driver's exam the first time}

The test statistics used here will be two sample Binomial statistics i.e.;

                             \frac{(\hat p_1 - \hat p_2)-(p_1 - p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1- \hat p_1)}{n_1} + \frac{\hat p_2(1- \hat p_2)}{n_2} } } ~ N(0,1)

Here, \hat p_1 = No. of students passed the exam ÷ No.of Students that had taken the course

 \hat p_1  = \frac{1150}{1850}            Similarly,  \hat p_2 = \frac{1440}{1500}          n_1 = 1,850       n_2 = 1,500

  Test Statistics = \frac{(\frac{1150}{1850} -\frac{1440}{1500})-0}{\sqrt{\frac{\frac{1150}{1850}(1- \frac{1150}{1850})}{1850} + \frac{\frac{1440}{1500}(1- \frac{1440}{1500})}{1500} } } = -27.38

P-value is given by, P(Z > -27.38) = 1 - P(Z > 27.38)

Now, in z table the highest critical value given is 4.4172 which corresponds to the probability value of 0.0005%. Since our test statistics is way higher than this so we can only say that the p-value for an appropriate hypothesis test is less than 0.999995 .

At noon, a barista notices she has $20 in her tip jar. If she makes an average of $0.50 from each customer, how much will she ha
RSB [31]

Answer:

She has $20 + $0.50n in her tip jar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount in tip jar at noon = $20

Average amount made from each customer = $0.50

Number of additional customers served after noon = n

Therefore, we have:

Additional amount made after noon = Average amount made from each customer * Number of additional customers served after noon = $0.50 * n = $0.50n

Amount in tip jar = Amount in tip jar at noon + Additional amount made after noon = $20 + $0.50n

Therefore, she has $20 + $0.50n in her tip jar.
