Answer:

3000 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem

2236^2=1000^2+|AB|^2\\|AB|^2=2236^2-1000^2\\|AB|^2=3999696\\|AB|=\sqrt{3999696} \\=1999.9

Similarly

1414^2=1000^2+|BC|^2\\|BC|^2=1414^2-1000^2\\|BC|^2=999696\\|BC|=\sqrt{999696} \\=999.7m

Length of the Tunnel = |AB|+|BC|

=1999.9+999.7

=2999.6

=3000 m

For each of the following studies, say whether you would use a t test for dependent means or a t test for independent means.
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

1. T test for independent means

2. T test for dependent means

3. T test for dependent means

Step-by-step explanation:

In number 1, the two groups are unrelated. The first group has 25 subjects and they're all unemployed. The second group has 24 subjects and their employment status is not stated and might not be the same all through. Also, the first group is receiving a new type of job skills program while the second group is taking the standard job skills program.

- The groups in the experiment are unrelated

- The tests in the research are unrelated

- The purpose of the research is unreasonable - the researcher seeks to measure how well all 49 subjects perform on 'a' job skills test! No comparison between the scores or mean scores of the two groups.

In number 2, the researcher uses the same subjects and also measures the same variable but twice. This is a good example of a study where the t test for dependent means can be taken. Same applies in case 3.

Nonamiya [84]
Let x be the number of pennies which is also equal to the number of dimes. By this representation, the number of quarters is equal 46 - 2x. The total amount is $4.87 or 487 cents. The equation that best represent the given is,
                                  x + 10x + 25(46 - 2x) = 487
The value of x from the equation is 17. Therefore, there are 17 of both pennies and dimes and 12 quarters.
