Answer: c. 3.01

Step-by-step explanation:

The test statistic for difference between two population mean (when population standard deviation is known) is given by :

z=\dfrac{\overline{x}_1-\overline{x}_2}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\dfrac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}}

, where n_1 = Size of first sample

n_2 = Size of second sample

\overline{x}_1-\overline{x}_2 = Difference between two sample mean.

\sigma_1 = standard deviation for population 1.

\sigma_2 = standard deviation for population 2.

As per given , we have

n_1=80

n_2=60

\overline{x}_1=\$6.75

\overline{x}_2=\$6.25

\sigma_1=\$1

\sigma_2=\$0.95

Substitute these values in formula , we get

z=\dfrac{6.75-6.25}{\sqrt{\dfrac{(1)^2}{80}+\dfrac{(0.95)^2}{60}}}

z=\dfrac{0.50}{\sqrt{0.0275416666667}}

z=\dfrac{0.50}{0.165956821694}

z=3.0128318613\approx3.01

Hence, the value of the test statistic is <u>3.01</u>.

Hence, the correct option is c. 3.01 .

Proof of the Law of Sines

The Law of Sines states that for any triangle ABC, with sides a,b,c (see below)

a

 sin  A

=

b

 sin  B

=

c

 sin  C

For more see Law of Sines.

Acute triangles

Draw the altitude h from the vertex A of the triangle

From the definition of the sine function

 sin  B =

h

c

    a n d        sin  C =

h

b

or

h = c  sin  B     a n d       h = b  sin  C

Since they are both equal to h

c  sin  B = b  sin  C

Dividing through by sinB and then sinC

c

 sin  C

=

b

 sin  B

Repeat the above, this time with the altitude drawn from point B

Using a similar method it can be shown that in this case

c

 sin  C

=

a

 sin  A

Combining (4) and (5) :

a

 sin  A

=

b

 sin  B

=

c

 sin  C

Obtuse Triangles

The proof above requires that we draw two altitudes of the triangle. In the case of obtuse triangles, two of the altitudes are outside the triangle, so we need a slightly different proof. It uses one interior altitude as above, but also one exterior altitude.

First the interior altitude. This is the same as the proof for acute triangles above.

Draw the altitude h from the vertex A of the triangle

 sin  B =

h

c

      a n d          sin  C =

h

b

or

h = c  sin  B       a n d         h = b  sin  C

Since they are both equal to h

c  sin  B = b  sin  C

Dividing through by sinB and then sinC

c

 sin  C

=

b

 sin  B

Draw the second altitude h from B. This requires extending the side b:

The angles BAC and BAK are supplementary, so the sine of both are the same.

(see Supplementary angles trig identities)

Angle A is BAC, so

 sin  A =

h

c

or

h = c  sin  A

In the larger triangle CBK

 sin  C =

h

a

or

h = a  sin  C

From (6) and (7) since they are both equal to h

c  sin  A = a  sin  C

Dividing through by sinA then sinC:

a

 sin  A

=

c

 sin  C

Combining (4) and (9):

a

 sin  A

=

b

 sin  B

=

c

 sin  C

PLS HELP ME!!!!!!!!! I WILL MARK YOU!!!!!
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

7.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

c² + 0.1c - 24 ← substitute c = - 5.7 into the expression

= (- 5.7)² + 0.1(- 5.7) - 24

= 32.49 - 0.57 - 24

= 31.92 - 24

= 7.92
