Answer:

We are calculating the Hypotenuse of a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance Formula: When working on a coordinate plane, you can always find the distance between two points (or the length of a line segment) by creating a right triangle and using the Pythagorean Theorem. Draw a right triangle such that the distance between the two points is the hypotenuse.

Hence, When you use the distance formula, you are calculating the length of the Hypotenuse of a right triangle.

We could also see from the figure attached.

A treatment is administered to a sample of n = 9 individuals selected from a population with a mean of µ = 80 and a standard dev

stepan [7]

Answer:

a) M =82

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s study this as a Normal distribution.

As we know in a normal distribution the z score is = (X-μ)/(sd/sqrt(n))

where

X = mean for the taken sample = What we want to know in this problem

μ = Total population mean =80

sd= standard deviation= 12

n = sample size=9

So in this case z=( X-80)/(12/sqr(9))= (X-80)/4

also we know that the effect size taken by the machine is 0.5, which is the same as the z-score

so...

0.5 = (X-80)/4 => 0.5*4 = X-80

2+80 = X

X = 82
