Yes, segments 9, 9, and 1 can form a triangle. The rule that determines this is called the Triangle Inequality Theorem. This states that for a triangle with side lengths A B and C to exist, the following relationships have to apply:
A + B > C
B + C > A
A + C > B
With side lengths 9, 9, 1, this rule applies.
9 + 9 > 1
9 + 1 > 9
1 + 9 > 9
Therefore, a triangle will be able to be formed from the side lengths.

Consecutive numbers are

x, x+1, x+2

x+x+1+x+2=54

3x+3=54

-3 -3

3x=51

A random sample of 64 freshmen spent an average of 14 hours per week watching television. the sample standard deviation was 32 h

NemiM [27]

Answer:

+/- 1.9983

Step-by-step explanation:

The critical values for a confidence interval for the population mean, with population standard deviation not known, are obtained from the student's t distribution.

The sample size is given as 64. The degrees of freedom will thus be;

sample size - 1 = 64 - 1 = 63

The confidence level is given as 95%. The level of significance will thus be;

100 - 95 = 5%.

The area in the right-tail will thus be 2.5%. Therefore, we looking for a t-value such that the area to its right is 2.5% and the degrees of freedom being 63. From the t-tables we have;

+/- 1.9983
