If A, B and C are collinear, then:

AB+BC=AC\\\\AB=x+4,\ BC=2x-10,\ AC=2x+1

substitute:

(x+4)+(2x-10)=2x+1\\\\(x+2x)+(4-10)=2x+1\\\\3x-6=2x+1\ \ \ |+6\\\\3x=2x+7\ \ \ \ |-2x\\\\x=7\\\\AB=x+4\to AB=7+4=11\\\\BC=2x-10\to BC=2(7)-10=14-10=4\\\\AC=AB+BC\to AC=11+4=15

If a 1% level of significance is used to test a null hypothesis, there is a probability of __________ of rejecting the null hypo
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

If a 1% level of significance is used to test a null hypothesis, there is a probability of ____ less than 1%______ of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a hypothesis testing is done.

Level of significance used is 1%

i.e. alpha = 1%

When we do hypothesis test, we find out test statistic Z or t suitable for the test and find p value

If p value is < 1% we reject null hypothesis otherwise we accept null hypothesis.

So p value can be atmost 1% only for accepting null hypothesis.

So the answer is 1%

If a 1% level of significance is used to test a null hypothesis, there is a probability of ____less than 1%______ of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true.

Tasya [4]

Answer:

4 tacos

Step-by-step explanation:

according to the converse of triangle proportionality theorem, 7 beans is equivalent to 5 bananas, so if we took 2 away we would be left with 4 tacos, not apples because an apple a day keeps the doctor away and we are in a pandemic right now
