Answer:

325.5 $

Step-by-step explanation:

series is 3+3.5 +4 +4.5 + .............31 TERMS

THIS IS CLEARLY AN AP (ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION)

FIRST TERM = a = 3

number of terns = n = 31

common difference = d = 0.5

sum of n terms = Sn = ?

formula is Sn = (n/2){ 2a +(n-1)d}

 Sn = (31/2){2×3 +(31-1)(0.5)}

Sn = (15.5)(6+30×0.5)

Sn= (15.5)(6+15)

Sn = 15.5×21

Sn = 325.5 $

Triangle VXW is similar to triangle ZXY. Triangle V X W. Side V W is 12 miles and side V X is 14 miles. Triangle Z X Y. Side Y Z
amid [387]

Answer: Kara should have written the proportion in step 1 as;

Start Fraction 12 Over 72 End Fraction = Start Fraction 14 Over x End Fraction (that is 12/72 = 14/x)

Step-by-step explanation: The two similar triangles are given with the following dimensions;

Triangle VXW with side VW = 12 and side VX = 14. Also Triangle ZXY with side YZ = 72 and side XZ = x.

For two triangles to be similar, then there must be a similarity ration that is consistent with all sides in both triangles. This means if in the first triangle a side measures  1 unit and the similar side in the other triangle measures 5 units, then the ratio of similarity of corresponding sides shall be ratio 1 : 5. So for every corresponding side in the second triangle the measurement shall be times five of the side that corresponds in the first triangle.

Therefore, in triangle VXW and triangle ZXY, the corresponding sides are as follows;

VX = ZX

VW = ZY

XW = XY

What Kara did was as follows;

VX/ZY = VW/ZX

Which translates to 14/72 = 12/x

This was a wrong calculation because the side that corresponds to VX is ZX and not ZY.

The correct step should therefore have been;

VW/ZY = VX/ZX

12/72 = 14/x (Step 1)

12x = (72) (14) {Step 2}

x = 1008/12 (Step 3)

x = 84 (Step 4)

Veronica is saving money to by a saddle for her horse that costs 175 . She plans to save $10 the first month and then increased
Anon25 [30]
You will start off with $175-$10=$165. Then you will take your $165 and divide by $15 to get the answer. $165÷$15=11 months to save the money.

A sample of 38 observations is selected from one population with a population standard deviation of 3.4. The sample mean is 100.
kaheart [24]

Answer:

a. two-tailed test

b. reject H0 if Z>1.96 or Z<-1.96

c. Z = 1.73

d. we have failed to reject the null hypothesis

e. P-value = 0.0418

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use a Z test to resolve this, an it will be a two-tailed test because the hypothesis statements are not indicating a specific direction for the significant difference (H0 : μ1 = μ2 ; H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2), this also means that the significanclevel will be divided between the both tails (2.5% en each tail for the rejection regions). See attached drawing for reference.

We need to find our critical value:

Zα/2 = Z(0.05/2) = 0.025

If we look for 0.025 in a Z table we will find that the critical value is 1.96 to the right, and by symmetry -1.96 to the left. So our decision rule will be to reject H0 if Z>1.96 or Z<-1.96

The Z test will be done using the next equation:

Z = (x⁻1 - x⁻2) - (μ1 - μ2) / √( σ²1/n1 + σ²2/n2

Because we are testing the null hypothesis we know that μ1 - μ2 must be zero if they are supposed to be equal (H0 : μ1 = μ2), so we calculate as follows:

Z = (100.5 - 98.8) - (0) / √( (3.4)²/38 + (5.8)²/51 = 1.7/0.9817 = 1.73

Z<1.96, therefore we have failed to reject the null hypothesis

The P-value for this test would be represented by the probability of Z being greater than 1.73, so we can look for it in any Z table, finding that its value is 0.0418, and because P-value>0.025 we again confirm that we don't have evidence statistically significant to reject the null hypothesis
