A randomized study compared the effectiveness of two mosquito repellents. The treatment group using Spray A reported a mean of 3

.5 mosquito bites. The treatment group using Spray B reported a mean of 5.6 mosquito bites.
To determine if the results are significant, the data are re-randomized and the differences of the means are shown in the dot plot.

What is the best conclusion to make based on the data?

Answer:

The difference of the means is not significant because the re-randomizations show that it is within the range of what could happen by chance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The treatment group using Spray A reported a mean of 3.5 mosquito bites.

The treatment group using Spray B reported a mean of 5.6 mosquito bites.

After the data are re-randomized; the differences of the means are shown in the dot plot. The dot plot is attached in the file below;

The best conclusion that can be make based on the data from the dot plot is :

The difference of the means is not significant because the re-randomizations show that it is within the range of what could happen by chance.

What is the value of x?

STatiana [176]

I thought it was 5 because the 55 degrees given is equal to the angle above it. If you look, there are 4, 90 degree angles so the 8x-5 has to equal 35 to make 90 but idk

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As the statement is ‘‘if and only if’’ we need to prove two implications

$f : X \rightarrow Y$ is surjective implies there exists a function $h : Y \rightarrow X$ such that $f\circ h = 1_Y$ .
If there exists a function $h : Y \rightarrow X$ such that $f\circ h = 1_Y$ , then $f : X \rightarrow Y$ is surjective

Let us start by the first implication.

Our hypothesis is that the function $f : X \rightarrow Y$ is surjective. From this we know that for every $y\in Y$ there exist, at least, one $x\in X$ such that $y=f(x)$ .

Now, define the sets $X_y = \{x\in X: y=f(x)\}$ . Notice that the set $X_y$ is the pre-image of the element $y$ . Also, from the fact that $f$ is a function we deduce that $X_{y_1}\cap X_{y_2}=\emptyset$ , and because $f$ the sets $X_y$ are no empty.

From each set $X_y$ choose only one element $x_y$ , and notice that $f(x_y)=y$ .

So, we can define the function $h:Y\rightarrow X$ as $h(y)=x_y$ . It is no difficult to conclude that $f\circ h(y) = f(x_y)=y$ . With this we have that $f\circ h=1_Y$ , and the prove is complete.

Now, let us prove the second implication.

We have that there exists a function $h:Y\rightarrow X$ such that $f\circ h=1_Y$ .

Take an element $y\in Y$ , then $f\circ h(y)=y$ . Now, write $x=h(y)$ and notice that $x\in X$ . Also, with this we have that $f(x)=y$ .

So, for every element $y\in Y$ we have found that an element $x\in X$ (recall that $x=h(y)$ ) such that $y=f(x)$ , which is equivalent to the fact that $f$ is surjective. Therefore, the prove is complete.

In the diagram below, ΔABC is inscribed in circle P. The distances from the center of circle P to each side of the triangle are

4vir4ik [10]

Supposing the sides with 6 and 8 is a right angle, you can create a new line from C and P, and find the length using the equation of a²+b²=c² or 6²+8²=c², with c equaling the radius of the circle.

After finding c, you will have to find the length from C to the midpoint of AC, using the same equation a²+b²=c². If both the lengths of C to the midpoint of AC, and A to the midpoint of AC are equal, you can do b+b to find the length of AC.

Using the same approach, you can find AB. Hope this makes sense, if not, I can clarify more.
