State whether the triangles are similar. If so, write a similarity statement and the postulate or theorem you used.

Answer:

Triangles ABC and MNO are similar by SSS

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

In this problem

If this problem the corresponding sides are

AB and MN

BC and NO

AC and MO

Verify if the corresponding sides are proportional

\frac{AB}{MN}=\frac{BC}{NO}=\frac{AC}{MO}

substitute the given values

\frac{5}{7.5}=\frac{5}{7.5}=\frac{8}{12}

0.67=0.67=0.67 ----- is true

so

When two triangles have corresponding sides with identical ratios , the triangles are similar by SSS Similarity

therefore

Triangles ABC and MNO are similar by SSS

In an equilateral triangle, each angle is represented by 5y+3. What is the value of y?
mylen [45]

Answer:

y= 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equilateral triangle, each angle is the same

180/3=60

So each angle equals 60

5y+3 =60

Subtract 3 from each side

5y +3-3 = 60-3

5y = 57

Divide by 5

5y/5 = 57/5

y = 11.4

(-3x)²-(3x-2)²-6*(2x-1.5)
Ilya [14]
Without the instructions, I can only assume that you are to "expand the given expression."

Following order of operations rules requires that (3x-2)^2 and -6(2x-1.5) be evaluated first.

(3x-2)^2 = 9x^2 - 12x + 4   and    -6(2x-1.5) = -12x + 9

Then we have 9x^2 - (9x^2 - 12x + 4) -12x + 9

the 9x^2 terms cancel, leaving  us with 12x - 4 - 12x + 9 = 5 (answer)

A random sample of 100 people from City A has an average IQ of 120 with a SD of 18. Independently of this, a random sample of 15
Sloan [31]

Answer:

z=\frac{(120-116)-0}{\sqrt{\frac{18^2}{100}+\frac{15^2}{150}}}}=1.837

p_v =P(z>1.837)=1-P(Z  

Comparing the p value with a significance level for example \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that the average IQ on city A is signficantly higher than city B at 5% of singificance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

\bar X_{A}=120 represent the mean for sample 1

\bar X_{B}=116 represent the mean for sample 2

s_{A}=18 represent the sample standard deviation for 1  

s_{B}=15 represent the sample standard deviation for 2  

n_{A}=100 sample size for the group 2  

n_{B}=150 sample size for the group 2  

\alpha Significance level provided

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if residents of City A smarter on average, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu_{A}-\mu_{B}\leq 0  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_{A} - \mu_{B}> 0  

We don't have the population standard deviation's, but the sample sizes are large enough we can apply a z test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{(\bar X_{A}-\bar X_{B})-\Delta}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{A}}{n_{A}}+\frac{s^2_{B}}{n_{B}}}} (1)

z-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

With the info given we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{(120-116)-0}{\sqrt{\frac{18^2}{100}+\frac{15^2}{150}}}}=1.837

P value

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z>1.837)=1-P(Z  

Comparing the p value with a significance level for example \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that the average IQ on city A is signficantly higher than city B at 5% of singificance.
