A RIGHT triangle has three sides: a, b, c such that a=b and LaTeX: a^2\:+\:b^2\:=\:c^2 a 2 + b 2 = c 2 What is the ratio of the

longest side to the shortest? HINT:Sketch triangle NOTE: Angle A + Angle B = Angle C & Angle A= Angle B

Answer:

c=b\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the attached image.

A right triangle is considered so when one of its corners are 90°.

If sides a and b are equal in length, then  the corners across from them are equal in size as well.

The only way for this to be possible is if both corners A and B(opposite of sides a and b) are 45°.

Pythagorean theorem

This theorem states that the square of a right triangle's long side is equal to the sum of the squares of the shorter sides.

In this case:

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

but since:

a=b

the equation can be solved by replacing a with b in the equation:

b^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} \\2b^{2}=c^{2} \\\sqrt{2b^{2} } = c\\b\sqrt{2} =c

A study was conducted to determine whether magnets were effective in treating pain. The values represent measurements of pain us
Zanzabum

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective of the study is to determine whether the magnets are effective in treating pain. For these two independent groups of individuals with equal affections were randomly sampled, one was treated with magnets and the other group of individuals, call it control group, was treated with a placebo treatment.

The information for both samples is:

X₁: pain measurement using a visual analog scale after the individual received magnet treatments.

X₁~N(μ₁;σ₁²)

n₁= 20

X[bar]₁= 0.46

S₁= 0.93

X₂: pain measurement using a visual analog scale of an individual of the control groups.

X₂~N(μ₂;σ₂²)

n₂= 20

X[bar]₂= 0.41

S₂= 1.26

The claim is that the pain reductions of the control group have more variation than the pain reductions of the target group. If it's so then we could suspect that the population variance of the control group, σ₂², will be greater than the population variance of the magnet group, σ₁².

To test the relationship between these two population variances you have to conduct a variance ratio test using the Snedecors F statistic.

The hypotheses are:

H₀: σ₂² ≤ σ₁²

H₁: σ₂² > σ₁²

α: 0.05

F= (\frac{S_2^2}{S_1^2}) * (\frac{Sigma_2^2}{Sigma_1^2} )~~ F_{(n_2-1);(n_1-1)}

This hypothesis test is one-tailed to the right, there is only one critical value:

F_{(n_2-1);(n_1-1); 1 - \alpha } = F_{19;19; 0.95}= 2.17

The decision rule for the test is:

If F_{H_0} ≥ 2.17, then the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

If F_{H_0} < 2.17, then the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

F_{H_0}= \frac{S_2^2}{S_1^2}*\frac{Sigma_2^2}{Sigma_1^2}  = \frac{(1.26)^2}{(0.93)^2} * 1

F_{H_0} = 1.835 = 1.84

Since the calculated value of F is less than the critical value, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis. So using a 5% significance level the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis, you can conclude that the population variance of the pain reduction of the control group is less or equal than the population variance of the pain reduction on individuals treated with magnets.

I hope it helps!

Which expression represents -8x^2+54x+140 in factored form?
Elenna [48]

Answer:

D. (x+2)(-8x+70)​

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x^2+54x+140

Factor out -2

-2(4x^2+27x+70)

Factor

-2(x+2)(4x-35)

Option D is the same answer if we multiply -2 in the second term

(x+2) (-8x+70)
