Complete question is attached.

Answer:

a) ED = 6.5 cm

b) BE = 14.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the triangle, we are given the following dimensions:

AB = 20 cm

BC = 5 cm

CD = 18 cm

AE = 26 cm

We are asked to find length of sides ED and BE.

a) Find length of ED.

From the triangle Let's use the equation:

$\frac{AB}{BC} = \frac{AE}{ED}$

Cross multiplying, we have:

AB * ED = AE * BC

From this equation, let's make ED subject of the formula.

$ED = \frac{AE * BC}{AB}$

Let's substitute figures,

$ED = \frac{26 * 5}{20}$

$ED = \frac{130}{20} = 6.5$

Therefore, length of ED is 6.5 cm.

b) To find length of BE, let's use the equation:

$\frac{AB}{AC} = \frac{BE}{CD}$

Cross multiplying, we have:

AB * CD = AC * BE

Let's make BE subject of the formula,

$BE = \frac{AB * CD}{AC}$

From the triangle, length AC = AB + BC.

AC = 20 + 5 = 25

Substituting figures, we have:

$BE = \frac{20 * 18}{25}$

$BE = \frac{360}{25} = 14.4$

Therefore, length Of BE is 14.4cm

Explanation:

From your knowledge of the world, you know that ...

the cost of multiple items is the sum of their individual costs
multiplication can be used for repeated addition
utility fees are the sum of fixed fees and usage-related fees
for a phone plan, text message costs are a usage-related fee

The problem statement asks for the cost of a single text message. For the purpose of finding that value, it is convenient to represent it using the variable <em>t</em>. The problem statement says Eric was billed for 450 text messages, so we expect his usage-related fee to be 450t, the sum of the costs of 450 messages--using multiplication for the repeated sum.

The problem statement says Eric was billed 12.50 for fixed fees. So, we expect Eric's total bill to be ...

fixed fees + usage-related fees = 12.50 + 450t

The problem statement says Eric's total bill was 35.00, so we assume that is the sum of the above-listed fees. That is, the two ways to express Eric's total bill are equal.

12.50 +450t = 35.00

$\lim_{x\to\infty}\dfrac{\sqrt x}{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt x}}}=\\
\lim_{x\to\infty}\dfrac{\dfrac{\sqrt x}{\sqrt x}}{\dfrac{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt x}}}{\sqrt x}}=\\

$\lim_{x\to\infty}\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1+\sqrt{\dfrac{x+\sqrt x}{x^2}}}}=\\\lim_{x\to\infty}\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1+\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{x}+\dfrac{\sqrt x}{\sqrt{x^4}}}}}=\\\lim_{x\to\infty}\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1+\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{x}+\sqrt{\dfrac{x}{x^4}}}}}=\\
\lim_{x\to\infty}\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1+\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{x}+\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{x^3}}}}}=\\

Describe how to write the null and alternative hypotheses based on a claim. Provide at least one example to clarify your explana

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and alternative hypothesis are usually used in hypothesis testing to present the claim being tested as give in terms of the mean or proportion :

Given that the mean score of high school students is 10 ; using a sample of 50 students, a mean of 8 was obtained ; we could want to test the claim that the mean score is less than 10.

Here; population mean, μ = 10 ; the claim is now that, μ < 10 based on what was observed about the sample.

H0 : μ = 10

H0 : μ < 10

If we wanted to test If the mean was greater than 10 ; then the sign is reversed

H0 : μ = 10

H0 : μ > 10

If we wanted to test If the score is just different from the mean score stated ; (it may be less than or greater than)

H0 : μ = 10

H0 : μ ≠ 10
