Some transportation experts claim that it is the variability of speeds, rather than the level of speeds, that is a critical fact

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The claim made by an expert is that driving conditions are dangerous if the variance of speeds exceeds 75 (mph)².

(1)

The hypothesis for both the test can be defined as:

H₀: The variance of speeds does not exceeds 75 (mph)², i.e. σ² ≤ 75.

Hₐ: The variance of speeds exceeds 75 (mph)², i.e. σ² > 75.

(2)

A Chi-square test will be used to perform the test.

The significance level of the test is, α = 0.05.

The degrees of freedom of the test is,

df = n - 1 = 55 - 1 = 54

Compute the critical value as follows:

$\chi^{2}_{\alpha, (n-1)}=\chi^{2}_{0.05, 54}=72.153$

Decision rule:

If the test statistic value is more than the critical value then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

(3)

Compute the test statistic as follows:

$\chi^{2}=\frac{(n-1)\times s^{2}}{\sigma^{2}}$

$=\frac{(55-1)\times 94.7}{75}\\\\=68.184$

The test statistic value is, 68.184.

Decision:

$cal.\chi^{2}=68.184$

The null hypothesis will not be rejected at 5% level of significance.

Conclusion:

The variance of speeds does not exceeds 75 (mph)². Thus, concluding that driving conditions are not dangerous on this highway.

from a window 24 feet above the ground, the angle of elevation to the top of another building is 38 degrees. The distance betwee

Delvig [45]

Answer:

The height of the building is $73.2\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

$tan(38\°)=\frac{BC}{AB}$

we have

$AB=63\ ft$

substitute and solve for BC

$tan(38\°)=\frac{BC}{63}$

$BC=(63)tan(38\°)=49.2\ ft$

Find the height of the building

The height of the building (h) is equal to

$h=BC+24=49.2+24=73.2\ ft$

A square carpet of side length 9 feet is designed with one large shaded square and eight smaller, congruent shaded squares, as s

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$3\sqrt{3} + 72$

Step-by-step explanation:

I attached an image to aid the understanding of the question.

Looking at the image, we see that the 8 shaded parts are congruent, as affirmed in the question as well. And we are told that T = 3, this implies that the area of the square with T as it's side is 9ft². Since all the 8 squares are congruenrt, it means each square has its area to be 9. Therefore, the total area of the 8 shaded squares will be:

$9 \times 8 = 72ft^{2}$

It remains the area of the shaded square with side S.

From the question, we have the following ratio:

$\frac{9}{S} = \frac{S}{T}[\tex]But[tex]\frac{9}{S} = \frac{S}{3}[\tex]Multiplying through by 3S we have27 = S² and this gives:[tex]S = \sqrt{27} = 3\sqrt{3}$
