Answer: -37%

Step by Step Sol: 100=x

10% of 100 equals 10

100-10 = 90

30% of 90 equals 27

90-27 = 63

63-100 equals -37

Which is the height of the triangle? ( PIC IS PROVIDE PLS HELP ME)

zysi [14]

<h3>Answer: 80 meters</h3>

This is an isosceles triangle. The dashed line is the height which is perpendicular to the base 120. The height is always perpendicular to the base. The dashed line cuts the base into two equal pieces (this only works for isosceles triangles when you cut at the vertex like this).

So we have two smaller triangles each with a base of 60 and a height of x. Focus on one of the right triangles and use the pythagorean theorem to solve for x.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + (60)^2 = (100)^2

x^2 + 3600 = 10000

x^2 = 10000 - 3600

x^2 = 6400

x = sqrt(6400)

x = 80

Each smaller right triangle has side lengths of 60, 80, 100

Note the ratio 60:80:100 reduces to 3:4:5. A 3-4-5 right triangle is a very common pythagorean primitive.

Find the value of x. help please

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a 90 degree angle.

90-60=30

30=the remaining angle, 3x

x=30/3, or 10

Hope I helped!

The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is regi

yan [13]

Answer:

We conclude that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 513 employed persons and 604 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that 287 of the employed persons and 280 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote.

Let $p_1$ = percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote.

$p_2$ = percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1\leq p_2$ {means that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote does not exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1>p_2$ {means that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote}

The test statistics that would be used here Two-sample z test for proportions;

T.S. = $\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p_1$ = sample proportion of employed workers who have registered to vote = $\frac{287}{513}$ = 0.56

$\hat p_2$ = sample proportion of unemployed workers who have registered to vote = $\frac{280}{604}$ = 0.46

$n_1$ = sample of employed persons = 513

$n_2$ = sample of unemployed persons = 604

So, the test statistics = $\frac{(0.56-0.46)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.56(1-0.56)}{513}+\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{604} } }$

= 3.349

The value of z test statistics is 3.349.

Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of z as 3.349 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.
