In geometry, how do defined terms and undefined terms relate to each other?

In geometry, definitions are formed using known words or terms to describe a new word. There are three words in geometry that are not formally defined. These three undefined terms are point, line and plane. 

<span>POINT (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a point has no dimension (actual size). Even though we represent a point with a dot, the point has no length, width, or thickness. A point is usually named with a capital letter. In the coordinate plane, a point is named by an ordered pair, (x,y). </span>

<span>LINE (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a line has no thickness but its length extends in one dimension and goes on forever in both directions. A line is depicted to be a straight line with two arrowheads indicating that the line extends without end in two directions. A line is named by a single lowercase written letter or by two points on the line with an arrow drawn above them. </span>

<span>PLANE (an undefined term) </span>
<span>In geometry, a plane has no thickness but extends indefinitely in all directions. Planes are usually represented by a shape that looks like a tabletop or wall. Even though the diagram of a plane has edges, you must remember that the plane has no boundaries. A plane is named by a single letter (plane m) or by three non-collinear points (plane ABC). </span>

<span>Undefined terms can be combined to define other terms. Noncollinear points, for example, are points that do not lie on the same line. A line segment is the portion of a line that includes two particular points and all points that lie between them, while a ray is the portion of a line that includes a particular point, called the end point, and all points extending infinitely to one side of the end point. </span>

<span>Defined terms can be combined with each other and with undefined terms to define still more terms. An angle, for example, is a combination of two different rays or line segments that share a single end point. Similarly, a triangle is composed of three noncollinear points and the line segments that lie between them. </span>

<span>Everything else builds on these and adds more information to this base. Those added things include all the theorems and other "defined" terms like parallelogram or acute angle. </span>

For each of the following situations, state whether the appropriate test would be a Independent Samples T test or Paired T Test,
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

B. Paired T Test

B. H0: μd = 0 and Ha: μd < 0 where μd= mean difference in blood pressure (calculated as aspirin - placebo)

Step-by-step explanation:

As the experiment is based on the difference between the results of a pair, the most appropiate test is a paired t-test.

If the 80 people group had been dividided in 2 and then compare the means for each group, it would have been a independent samples t-test.

For each pair, a variable d (for difference) is calculated and used as the outcome sample to perform the test.

Then, the null hypothesis will state that the population mean for this difference is not significantly different from 0, and the alternative hypothesis claiming it is signficant different from 0.

The sample means for the treatment group and the placebo is not individually calculated, as only the difference for each pair is used as sample in a paired t-test.

A new shopping mall is gaining in popularity. Every day since it opened, the number of shoppers is 20% more than the number of s
babunello [35]

Answer:

The number of buyers on the first day was approximately 324.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have a initial number of shoppers "C" that we want to know and this grows at a steady rate of 20% per day, like a compound interest, we also know the total number of shoppers after 4 days, so we have the final amount of shoppers. We can use the formula for compound interest in order to calculate the number of shoppers in the first day as shown bellow:

M = C*(1 +i)^(t)

Where M is the total amount of shoppers, i is the growth rate and t is the time elapsed.

671 = C*(1 + 0.2)^(4)

671 = C*(1.2)^4

671 = C*2.0736

C = 671/2.0736 = 323.5918

Since there can't be a 0.59 buyer, we will round the number to 324.
