Let
n = number of data
s = standard deviation (sample)
S = standard deviation (population)

The working equations is

\frac{(n-1) s^{2} }{ x^{2}_{right} }  \ \textless \   S^{2} \ \textless \   \frac{(n-1) s^{2} }{ x^{2}_{left} }

To find x^{2}_{right}, : (1 - 0.90)/2 = 0.05

To find x^{2}_{left}, : 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

Degrees of freedom = n-1 = 24 - 1 = 23

This is shown in the figure attached. Since there is no row for df=23, we interpolate. Thus,

 x^{2}_{left} = 13.093 

 x^{2}_{right} = 35.17 


Substitute all values,

\frac{(24-1) 5.6^{2} }{ 35.17} \ \textless \ S^{2} \ \textless \ \frac{(24-1)  5.6^{2} }{ 13.093} }

Thus the answer is,

20.51\  \textless \ S^{2} \ \textless \ 55.09

A scale of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco Bay has
lora16 [44]

Answer:

2520ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for what is the scale of the model?

Let x will be the span length

Hence,

x= 4200 feet long/20 inches long

x=210

Thus:

1 inch = 210 ft

1 ft = 2520

=2520ft

Therefore the scale of the model will be 2520ft

Solve the system by the substitution method. Show your work.<br> 2y - x = 5<br> x^2 + y^2 - 25 = 0
Elza [17]
2y - x = 5
x^2 + y^2 - 25 = 0

x = 2y - 5

(2y-5)^2 + y^2 - 25 = 0
(2y-5)(2y-5) + y^2 - 25 = 0
4y^2 - 20y + 25 + y^2 - 25 = 0
5y^2 - 20y = 0
y = 0 , y = 4

x = 2y - 5 , when y = 0
x = - 5

x = 2y - 5 , when y = 4
x = 8 - 5
x = 3

Which of the following statements is true according to the measurements in the diagram?
e-lub [12.9K]

Let's look at the corresponding ratios:

\frac{AB}{ED}=\frac{24}{30}=\frac{4}{5}\\\frac{BC}{DC}=\frac{16}{20}=\frac{4}{5}\\\frac{AC}{EC}=\frac{21}{28}=\frac{3}{4}\\

And we see that the three aren't equal.

Hence, $\Delta ABC$ and $\Delta EDC$ are not similar.
