Both Rhianna and Christopher were correct as they took different reference angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

tan \theta = \frac{opposite side}{adjacentside} .

The value of the tan of a reference angle is calculated using the above formula.

The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle is always opposite the right angle of the triangle.

In this triangle, the hypotenuse is the side measuring 5 units.

Step 2:

When the reference angle is A, the opposite side measures 3 units and the adjacent side measures 4 units.

So tan A = \frac{3}{4} .

When the reference angle is C, the opposite side measures 4 units and the adjacent side measures 3 units.

So tan C = \frac{4}{3} .

So both Rhianna and Christopher were right as they took different reference angles i.e. A and C.

Which is an equation of the line with slope –3 and passes through (2, –1)
Savatey [412]

using the formula:

y = mx +b

Using the given slope and coordinate points we get:

-1 = -3(2) + b

-1 = -6 + b

add 6 to each side

5 = b

y = -3x + 5

which is the same as:

3x + y = 5 ...answer choice a

A college chemistry instructor thinks the use of embedded tutors will improve the success rate in introductory chemistry courses
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The chemistry instructor tested the hypothesis that the proportion of students that passed the introductory chemistry class is better with an embedded. If the known proportion for this population is 65%, the tested hypothesis is:

H₀: p=0.65

H₁: p>0.65

The calculated statistic is Z=2.52 and the associated p-value: 0.0059

Remember:

The p-value is defined as the probability corresponding to the calculated statistic if possible under the null hypothesis (i.e. the probability of obtaining a value as extreme as the value of the statistic under the null hypothesis).

In this case:

P(Z≥2.52)=0.0059

There is no significance level, the most common one is α: 0.05 so I'll use it as an example.

To make a decision using the p-value you have to compare it to the α.

If p- value>α then you support the null hypothesis (In this case, you can say that there is no change in the proportion of students that passed the introductory chemistry class with an embedded tutor.)

If p-value≤α your decision will be to reject the null hypothesis (In this case, there is significant evidence to say that there is an improvement in the success rate of the introductory chemistry class with an embedded tutor?

Since the p-value:0.0059 is less than the significance level 0.05, you will decide to reject the null hypothesis.

I hope you have a SUPER day!
