The Saxena family plans to install a light to illuminate part of their rectangular yard. Nikki and Dylan each proposed a differe
nt spot to place the light. The proposed placements and the lit area that each produces are shown below. Nikki's proposed placemat has a triangular light area with a base of 60 feet and height of 38 feet. Dylan's proposed placemat has a base of 60 feet and a height of 38 feet. How do Nikki's and Dylan's proposals compare? Check all that apply.
1 answer:
Options:
a. Nikki's proposed placement will light a greater area than Dylan's placement.
b. Dylan's proposed placement will light a greater area than Nikki's placement.
c. Both proposed placements will light the same sized area.
d. Nikki's proposed placement will light more than half the yard.
e. Dylan's proposed placement will light more than half the yard.
f. Dylan's proposed placement will light exactly half of the yard.
g. Nikki's proposed placement will light less than half of the yard.
Answer:
C) Both proposed placements will light the same sized area.
F) Dylan's proposed placement will light exactly half of the yard.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is (base x height) / 2, and both lights illuminate the same base and height = (60 x 38) / 2 = 1,140 sq ft
Both Dylan's and Nikki's proposed placement will lit exactly half of the yard. The yard's total area = 60 x 38 = 2,280 sq ft, which is twice the area lit by the lights.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".
The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".
The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".
On this case the Management try to determine if there is a difference in the average investment/quad between using electricity and using gas. So this needs to be on the alternative hypothesis. And the complement of the alternative hypothesis would be on the null hypothesis.
Null hypothesis :
Alternative hypothesis:
Or equivalently:
Null hypothesis :
Alternative hypothesis:
Other important thing is that on the alternative hypothesis we never can have the symbol equal.
So on this case the best options is:
d. H0: vs.
