Let the legs of the triangle be a and b, and the hypotenuse c.
Your first instinct might tell you to use the Pythagorean theorem to go about solving this because
. This works, but it is slow.
The fastest way to solve this is to recognize that the right triangle is a special triangle where the ratio of the sides are 3:4:5. This means that if the legs are 9 and 12, then the hypotenuse is 15 because 3*3 is 9, 3*4 is 12, and 3*5 is 15.
Answer:
For this case we want to conduct a test in order to see if the proportion of Clemson students who eat breakfast is different from 0.44 (alternative hypothesis). And the complement would represent the null hypothesis, and the system of hypothesis for this case are:
Null Hypothesis: 
Alternative hypothesis: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".
The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".
The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".
Solution to the problem

Null Hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
First of all work out how many tom and scott sold.
tom sold 60% of 90 cookies which is 54.
scott sold 2/3 of 150 cookies which is 100.
altogether the three of them sold 54+100+46 cookies which is 200.
Dawn sold 46 of these 200 cookies. To work out the percentage we have both the numbers to get 23 out of 100. We halved those numbers because a percentage is out of 100 we halved it to get it out of 100.
so 23 out of 100 is 23% so dawn sold 23%of the cookies.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
2.28%
Step-by-step explanation:
mean = 5 years = 60 months
standard deviation = 6 months
X = number of years the tires will last
P = probability of ...
z = z-score
6 years = 72 months
z = (# of months - mean) / standard deviation
z = (72 - 60)/6
z = 12/6
z = 2
P(X > 72) = 1 - P(X < 72)
= 1 - P(z < 2)
(using a Standard Normal Probabilities Table we can see that P(z < 2) = .9772)
So:
= 1 - .9772
= 0.0228 OR 2.28%
