Answer:

a) 0.76197086

b) -1.73406361

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Consider a t distribution with 7 degrees of freedom. Compute P(-1.29 < t < 1.29)

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) would be the area under the t distribution curve with 7 degrees of freedom between -1.29 and 1.29, that is in the interval (-1.29, 1.29).

This can be done the old style by looking up in a table or by using the technology with a spreadsheet.

In Excel, the function TDIST(x,n,2) with x>0 gives the area outside the interval (-x, x) of the t distribution with n degrees of freedom.

So TDIST(1.29,7,2) gives the area outside (-1.29, 1.29).

If we subtract this value from 1 we get the desired result

Hence  

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) = 1 - TDIST(1.29,7,2) = 1 - 0.23802914 = 0.76197086

In OpenOffice Calc, the function is the same replacing “,” with “;”  

That is

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) = 1 - TDIST(1.29;7;2) = 0.76197086

b)

Consider a t distribution with 18 degrees of freedom. Find the value of c such that P(t≤ c) = 0.05

We are looking for a point c such that the area of the t distribution with 18 degrees of freedom to the left of c is 0.05

In Excel, the inverse function of TDIST is TINV.  

TINV(p*2,n) with p>0 gives the point c such that the area of the t distribution with n degrees of freedom to the right of c is p.  

Since <em>the t distribution is symmetric with respect to 0</em>, -c would be a point such that the area to the left of -c is p.

So we want to compute  in Excel

-TINV(0.05*2,18) = -1.73406361

In OpenOffice Calc  

-TINV(0.05*2;18) = -1.73406361

Ivenika [448]
If the shapes are similar and the smaller trapezoid's long base is half of the big trapezoid's long base than that means that the small trapezoid's short base would be half of the big trapezoid's short base.

Answer: The Little Trapezoid's shorter base is 1 mi long.

I hope this helps.

The m∠P is three less than twice the measure of ∠Q. If ∠P and ∠Q are supplementary angles, find the measures of both angles.
notka56 [123]

Answer:

m∠P =119

m∠Q = 61

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠P =  2(∠Q)-3    or p=2(q)-3

supplementary angles so they combine to equal 180!

soooooo we can take  

q+p=180

input what p equals and you get

q+ 2(q)-3=180

3q-3=180

3q=183

q=61

now we have what m∠Q is, so just subtract that from 180 to get m∠P

180-61=119
