Answer:

D. segment TU is proportional to segment WX and ∠S is congruent to ∠V

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that, triangles STU is similar to triangle VWX.

Now, when two triangles are similar, the order of the letters is important and so, the corresponding angles are congruent (equal) and the corresponding sides are proportional.

So, as ΔSTU is similar to ΔVWX.

ST is proportional to VW and TU is proportional to WX

∠S is congruent to ∠V and ∠U is congruent to ∠X.

Therefore, according to the options, we see that side TU is proportional to side WX and ∠S is congruent to ∠V.

Hence, option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

After each year, the new population of the lions is 100% - 8% = 92% of the population of the lions the year before.

Hence our exponential base should be 0.92, indicating exponential decay. (A)

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

$(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{s^2_}{n_2}}$

And replacing we got:

$(9.2 -8.8) - 1.811 \sqrt{\frac{0.3^2}{27}+\frac{0.1^2}{30}}= 0.2903$

$(9.2 -8.8) + 1.811 \sqrt{\frac{0.3^2}{27}+\frac{0.1^2}{30}}= 0.5097$

And the confidence interval for the difference of means would be given by:

$0.2903 \leq \mu_1 -\mu_2 \leq 0.5097$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

We have the following data given:

$\bar X_1 = 9.2 , \bar X_2 = 8.8, \sigma_1= 0.3, n_1 = 27, \sigma_2 = 0.1, n_2 = 30$

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 93% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.93=0.07$ and $\alpha/2 =0.035$ . And the critical value would be given by:
