Which is the height of the triangle?<br> ( PIC IS PROVIDE PLS HELP ME)

zysi [14]

<h3>Answer: 80 meters</h3>

This is an isosceles triangle. The dashed line is the height which is perpendicular to the base 120. The height is always perpendicular to the base. The dashed line cuts the base into two equal pieces (this only works for isosceles triangles when you cut at the vertex like this).

So we have two smaller triangles each with a base of 60 and a height of x. Focus on one of the right triangles and use the pythagorean theorem to solve for x.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + (60)^2 = (100)^2

x^2 + 3600 = 10000

x^2 = 10000 - 3600

x^2 = 6400

x = sqrt(6400)

x = 80

Each smaller right triangle has side lengths of 60, 80, 100

Note the ratio 60:80:100 reduces to 3:4:5. A 3-4-5 right triangle is a very common pythagorean primitive.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

a) $df=n-1=16-1=15$

The statistic calculated is given by t=3.3

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{15}>3.3)=0.0024$

So since the p value is lower than the significance level $pv$ we reject the null hypothesis.

b) $df=n-1=8-1=7$

The statistic calculated is given by t=1.8

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{7}>1.8)=0.057$

So since the p value is higher than the significance level $pv>\alpha$ we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

c) $df=n-1=26-1=25$

The statistic calculated is given by t=-0.6

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{25}>-0.6)=0.723$

So since the p value is higher than the significance level $pv>\alpha$ we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean

$s$ represent the standard deviation for the sample

$n$ sample size

$\mu_o =20$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the true mean is higher than 20, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 20$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 20$

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

(a) n = 16, t = 3.3, a = 0.05, P-value =

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=16-1=15$

The statistic calculated is given by t=3.3

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{15}>3.3)=0.0024$

So since the p value is lower than the significance level $pv$ we reject the null hypothesis.

(b) n = 8, t = 1.8, a = 0.01, P-value =

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=8-1=7$

The statistic calculated is given by t=1.8

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{7}>1.8)=0.057$

So since the p value is higher than the significance level $pv>\alpha$ we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

(c) n = 26,t = -0.6, P-value =

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=26-1=25$

The statistic calculated is given by t=-0.6

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{25}>-0.6)=0.723$

So since the p value is higher than the significance level $pv>\alpha$ we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.
