Answer:

Option:B is the correct answer.

B: possible angle measures of the triangle are 92, 48, and 40 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that an obtuse triangle is a triangle whose one angle is a obtuse angle ( i.e. the measure of the angle is greater than 90 degree and less than 180 degrees).

A: all three angles have equal measures

Let the angle of a triangle be 'x'.

As we know that the sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°.

This implies that:

x+x+x=180°

3x=180°

⇒ x=60°

Hence, the triangle will not be obtuse as none of the angle is obtuse.

Hence, option: A is incorrect.

possible angle measures of the triangle are 92, 48, and 40.

This option is correct.

Since there is one angle which is obtuse ( measure 92 degree)

and also such a angle measure is possible in a triangle as sum of all the angles is 180°.

( since 92+48+40=180°)

two of the angles are equal, and the third angle has a measure of 70.

Let the equal angles be represented by 'x'.

As the sum of all the angles is 180°.

⇒ x+x+70=180°

⇒ 2x=110°

⇒ x=55°

Hence, here also none of the angle is obtuse.

hence, option: C is incorrect.

One angle has a measure of 90, while, the other two angles measure less than 90°.

Such a triangle will not be a obtuse triangle as none of the angle measure is greater than 90°.

Hence, option: D is incorrect.

An online furniture store sells chairs for $50 each and tables for $550 each. Every day, the store can ship a maximum of 32 piec

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

you have to sell 6 tables to meet all requirements

Step-by-step explanation:

chairs=$50x

tables=$550x

24 chairs×50= $1200

4100-1200= $2900

take $2900 and divide by $550 to find the exact number of tables which is 5 but selling 5 tables and 24 chairs doesnt reach the $4100 mark so I rounded up to 6 tables which doesnt surpass the maximum number of furniture(32) but beats the $4100 mark

83 random samples were selected from a normally distributed population and were found to have a mean of 32.1 and a standard devi

arlik [135]

Answer:

$\frac{(82)(2.4)^2}{104.139} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(82)(2.4)^2}{62.132}$

$4.525 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 7.602$

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

$2.127 \leq \sigma \leq 2.757$

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

$\bar X=32.1$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=2.4 represent the sample standard deviation

n=83 represent the sample size

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$

The degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=8-1=7$

The confidence level is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical values.
