The triangle inequality theorem states that any side of a triangle is always shorter than the sum of the two other sides. 
That means if you add up the distance from jacksonville to tampa and the distane from tampa to miami, the distance from jacksonville to miami must be less than that. 

171 miles + 206 miles = 377 miles

the distance from jacksonville to miami must be less than 377 miles

Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 6800 cubic centimeters per min at the same time that water is bein
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

1508527.582 cm³/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The net rate of flow dV/dt = flow rate in - flow rate out

Let flow rate in = k. Since flow rate out = 6800 cm³/min,

dV/dt = k - 6800

Now, the volume of a cone V = πr²h/3 where r = radius of cone and h = height of cone

dV/dt = d(πr²h/3)/dt = (πr²dh/dt)/3 + 2πrhdr/dt (since dr/dt is not given we assume it is zero)

So, dV/dt = (πr²dh/dt)/3

Let h = height of tank = 12 m, r = radius of tank = diameter/2 = 3/2 = 1.5 m, h' = height when water level is rising at a rate of 21 cm/min = 3.5 m and r' = radius when water level is rising at a rate of 21 cm/min

Now, by similar triangles, h/r = h'/r'

r' = h'r/h = 3.5 m × 1.5 m/12 m = 5.25 m²/12 m = 2.625 m = 262.5 cm

Since the rate at which the water level is rising is dh/dt = 21 cm/min, and the radius at that point is r' = 262.5 cm.

The net rate of increase of water is dV/dt = (πr'²dh/dt)/3

dV/dt = (π(262.5 cm)² × 21 cm/min)/3

dV/dt = (π(68906.25 cm²) × 21 cm/min)/3

dV/dt = 1447031.25π/3 cm³

dV/dt = 4545982.745/3 cm³

dV/dt = 1515327.582 cm³/min

Since dV/dt = k - 6800 cm³/min

k = dV/dt - 6800 cm³/min

k = 1515327.582 cm³/min - 6800 cm³/min

k = 1508527.582 cm³/min

So, the rate at which water is pumped in is 1508527.582 cm³/min

A randomized study compared the effectiveness of two mosquito repellents. The treatment group using Spray A reported a mean of 3
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The difference of the means is not significant because the re-randomizations show that it is within the range of what could happen by chance.​

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The treatment group using Spray A reported a mean of 3.5 mosquito bites.

The treatment group using Spray B reported a mean of 5.6 mosquito bites.

After the data are  re-randomized; the differences of the means are shown in the dot plot. The dot plot is attached in the file below;

The best conclusion that can be make based on the data from the dot plot is :

The difference of the means is not significant because the re-randomizations show that it is within the range of what could happen by chance.​
