Answer:

(15,595, 16,805)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to:

m = 16.2, sd = 3.75, n = 150

m is the mean, sd is the standard deviation and n is the sample size.

the degree of freedom would be:

n - 1 = 150 - 1 = 149

df = 149

at 95% confidence level the t is:

alpha = 1 - 95% = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

alpha / 2 = 0.05 / 2 = 0.025

now well for t alpha / 2 (0.025) and df (149) = t = 1,976

the margin of error = E = t * sd / (n ^ (1/2))

replacing:

E = 1,976 * 3.75 / (150 ^ (1/2))

E = 0.605

The 95% confidence interval estimate of the popilation mean is:

m - E <u <m + E

16.2 - 0.605 <u <16.2 + 0.605

15,595 <u <16,805

(15,595, 16,805)

Explain, with a test, why the two triangles in each figure are similar. Find the
frutty [35]

Answer:

x = 3, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached,

If ΔADE and ΔABC are similar triangles, their corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.

By this property,

\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{AC}{AE}=\frac{BC}{DE}

\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{AC}{AE}

\frac{AD+BD}{AD}=\frac{AE+EC}{AE}

\frac{3}{2}=\frac{x+1.5}{x}

3x = 2x + 3

3x - 2x = 3

x = 3

Similarly, \frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{BC}{DE}

\frac{3}{2}=\frac{y}{4}

y = \frac{3\times 4}{2}

y = 6

Find the circumference of a circle with an area of 676pi
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The circumference of the circle is 52π

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this exercise we first have to calculate the radius of the circle, for this we will use the formula of area of ​​a circle and we will clear the radius

a = area = 676π

r = radius

a = π * r²

we clear r

r = √(a/π)

now we replace the known values

r =  √(676π/π)

r = √(676)

r = 26

now we use the formula to calculate the circumference of a circle

c = π * 2r

c = π * 2 *  26

c = 52π

The circumference of the circle is 52π
