Answer: PN = 20 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram two congruent triangles are given ΔPMN ≅ ΔQSR.

So by CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent)

In ΔPMN and ΔQSR

PN=QR=20 in.

PM=SQ=24 in.

MN=RS= 7 in.

Congruent triangles are the triangles of which all the sides and all the angles are congruent.

If two triangles are said to be congruent then its all corresponding parts must be equal.

20. qr is congruent to pn so pn is 20

Help me please asap!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you must notice each of them share an x value in the exponent. So with that being said x is your GCF or in otherwords greatest common factor.

So you have an x(x^3-6x^2+9x)

you must take x from all of them inside the ( )

because x is your gcf :)

So x(x^2-6x+9) Now you use the trail and method error

to get (x-3 )(x-3 )you need two numbers that multiply to 9 but add up to -6 so... that would hmmm -3 and -3 cause -3*-3=9 and -3+-3=-6

don't forget your GCF bring it down because it's always in your answer

x(x-3)(x-3)

or..

x(x-3)^2 both are the same thing

ANSWER CAN BE

x(x-3)(x-3) OR x(x-3)^2

Both are the same thing just written different! You're welcome!

Brian is drawing a scale diagram of a building. for every 10 m of the building he draws a line 5 cm long. Bryn thinks he is usin

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

200:1, Bryn is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each 10 m is represented by a 5cm length on the diagram. We first note that 100 cm = 1 meter. 5 cm is (0.5 cm)*(1 meter/100 cm) =0.05 meters.

The 0.05 meters on the diagram represents 10 meters on the actual building. The ratio is (10 meters/0.05 meters) or 200:1. This is what Bryn believes is the ratio.

Toxaphene is an insecticide that has been identified as a pollutant in the Great Lakes ecosystem. To investigate the effect of t

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

This data suggest that there is more variability in low-dose weight gains than in control weight gains.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $\sigma_{1}^{2}$ be the variance for the population of weight gains for rats given a low dose, and $\sigma_{2}^{2}$ the variance for the population of weight gains for control rats whose diet did not include the insecticide.

We want to test $H_{0}: \sigma_{1}^{2} = \sigma_{2}^{2}$ vs $H_{1}: \sigma_{1}^{2} > \sigma_{2}^{2}$ . We have that the sample standard deviation for $n_{2} = 22$ female control rats was $s_{2} = 28$ g and for $n_{1} = 18$ female low-dose rats was $s_{1} = 51$ g. So, we have observed the value

$F = \frac{s_{1}^{2}}{s_{2}^{2}} = \frac{(51)^{2}}{(28)^{2}} = 3.3176$ which comes from a F distribution with $n_{1} - 1 = 18 - 1 = 17$ degrees of freedom (numerator) and $n_{2} - 1 = 22 - 1 = 21$ degrees of freedom (denominator).

As we want carry out a test of hypothesis at the significance level of 0.05, we should find the 95th quantile of the F distribution with 17 and 21 degrees of freedom, this value is 2.1389. The rejection region is given by {F > 2.1389}, because the observed value is 3.3176 > 2.1389, we reject the null hypothesis. So, this data suggest that there is more variability in low-dose weight gains than in control weight gains.
