lana [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

hey

Step-by-step explanation:

tana=5/10

tan a=1/2

I\

1 I \ x

I \

I__a\

2

Let unknown side be x

angle be a

using pythagorus theorem,1²+2²=x²

x²=5

x= √5,-√5

cos a= 2/√5

but a is in quadrant III ,Cos is negative

<h2>cos a= -2/√5</h2>

A powder diet is tested on 49 people, and a liquid diet is tested on 36 different people. Of interest is whether the liquid diet
brilliants [131]

Answer:

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the liquid diet yields a higher mean weight loss than the powder diet (P-value = 0.15).

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the difference between populations means.

The claim is that the liquid diet yields a higher mean weight loss than the powder diet.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a:\mu_1-\mu_2< 0

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample 1 (powder diet group), of size n1=49 has a mean of 42 and a standard deviation of 12.

The sample 2 (liquid diet group), of size n2=36 has a mean of 45 and a standard deviation of 14.

The difference between sample means is Md=-3.

M_d=M_1-M_2=42-45=-3

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\dfrac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{12^2}{49}+\dfrac{14^2}{36}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{2.939+5.444}=\sqrt{8.383}=2.895

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

t=\dfrac{M_d-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{-3-0}{2.895}=\dfrac{-3}{2.895}=-1.04

The degrees of freedom for this test are:

df=n_1+n_2-1=49+36-2=83

This test is a left-tailed test, with 83 degrees of freedom and t=-1.04, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

\text{P-value}=P(t

As the P-value (0.15) is greater than the significance level (0.05), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the liquid diet yields a higher mean weight loss than the powder diet.

astra-53 [7]

Answer: The answer is $698.00

Step-by-step explanation: For example, if you are receiving SSI and make $200 per month in earned income, the deduction will be made like this: $200 – 20 = $180 – 65 = $115.00/2 = $57.50 Meaning $57.50 would be deducted from the maximum SSI payment of $698.00 month.

78/25 as a terminating decimal
Kazeer [188]
To write \frac{78}{25} as a terminating decimal we will turn this fraction to a decimal. To do this we will divide the numerator by the deliminator and the result will be the decimal.Then we will check if it is a terminating decimal or repeating decimal. Lets do it:-

\frac{78}{25}
78 ÷ 25 = 3.12

3.12 is a terminating decimal. 

So, \frac{78}{25} as a terminating decimal is 3.12.

Hope I helped ya!!
