What is sin A=0.3784 rounded to the nearest whole degree

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

∠A = 22°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\sin (A)=0.3784$

We take inverse of sine to find angle A.

So, $\angle A=sin^{-1}(0.3784)=22.23$ °

22.23° rounded to nearest whole degree is 22°.

∴ $\angle A=22$ °.

According to the Census Bureau, 3.36 people reside in the typical American household. A sample of 25 households in Arizona retir

Mila [183]

Answer:

We conclude that the mean number of residents in the retirement community household is less than 3.36 persons.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 3.36

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 2.71

Sample size, n = 25

Alpha, α = 0.10

Sample standard deviation, s = 1.10

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 3.36\text{ residents per household}\\H_A: \mu < 3.36\text{ residents per household}$

We use One-tailed(left) t test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }$ Putting all the values, we have

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{2.71 - 3.36}{\frac{1.10}{\sqrt{25}} } = -2.95$

Now, $t_{critical} \text{ at 0.10 level of significance, 24 degree of freedom } =-1.31$

Since,

$t_{stat} < t_{critical}$

We reject the null hypothesis and fail to accept it.

Thus, we conclude that the mean number of residents in the retirement community household is less than 3.36 persons.
