In a​ study, researchers wanted to measure the effect of alcohol on the hippocampal​ region, the portion of the brain responsibl

e for​ long-term memory​ storage, in adolescents. The researchers randomly selected 17 adolescents with alcohol use disorders to determine whether the hippocampal volumes in the alcoholic adolescents were less than the normal volume of 9.02 cm cubed. An analysis of the sample data revealed that the hippocampal volume is approximately normal with no outliers and x overbarequals8.19 cm cubed and sequals0.8 cm cubed. Conduct the appropriate test at the alphaequals0.01 level of significance.

Answer:

t=\frac{8.19-9.02}{\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{17}}}=-4.28    

The degrees of freedom are given by

df=n-1=17-1=16  

The p value would be given by this probability:

p_v =P(t_{(16)}  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level provided of 0.01 we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly lower than 9.02 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=8.19 cm^3 represent the sample mean

s=0.8 cm^3 represent the sample deviation

n=17 sample size  

\mu_o =9.02 represent the value to verify

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

System of hypothesis to check

We want to check if the true mean is less than the normal value of 9.02 cm^3, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 9.02  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 9.02  

The statistic for this case is given by:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

t=\frac{8.19-9.02}{\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{17}}}=-4.28    

The degrees of freedom are given by

df=n-1=17-1=16  

The p value would be given by this probability:

p_v =P(t_{(16)}  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level provided of 0.01 we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly lower than 9.02 cm^3

2.3.3 congruent triangles
NARA [144]

In the congruent triangles both triangle are same . In this triangle 2.3.3 congruent triangle image given below to understand better.

According to the question, given that

2.3.3 congruent triangle under congruence triangle are explain:

Both triangles are said to be congruent if the three angles and three sides of one triangle match the corresponding angles and sides of the other triangle. We can see from the examples PQR and XYZ that PQ = XY, PR = XZ, and QR = YZ, and thus P = X, Q = Y, and R = Z. Then, we can state that XYZ and PQR.

To be congruent, the two triangles must be the same size and shape. It is necessary for both triangles to be superimposed on one another. A triangle appears to be in a different place or have a different look as we rotate, reflect, and/or translate it.

Two triangles must meet five requirements in order to be congruent. The congruence properties are SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, and RHS.

SSS Congruence Criteria

Side-Side-Side criterion is referred to as the SSS criterion. According to this standard, two triangles are congruent if their respective triangles' three sides are equal to one another.

The three angles of BAC must be identical to the corresponding angles of XYZ if, according to the SSS condition, BAC XYZ.

SAS Congruence Criteria

Side-Angle-Side criterion is referred to as the SAS criterion. According to this standard, two triangles are said to be congruent if their matching sides and included angles are the same on each side of each other.

The third side (AB) and the other two angles of ABC must be identical to the equivalent side (XY) and the angles of XYZ if ABC XYZ under the SAS condition.

ASA Congruence Criteria

Angle-Side-Angle criterion is also known as ASA criterion. According to the ASA criterion, two triangles are congruent if any two of their included sides and related angles are equivalent in size to those of the other triangle.

AAS Congruence Criteria

Angle-Angle-Side criterion is also known as the AAS criterion. Two triangles are said to be congruent according to the AAS criterion if any two angles and the non-included side of one triangle match the corresponding angles and side of the second triangle.

RHS Congruence Criteria

Right angle-hypotenuse-side congruence is referred to as the RHS criterion. If the hypotenuse and side of one right-angled triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and the corresponding side of another right-angled triangle, then two triangles are said to be congruent according to this criterion.

I can't figure out how to solve for x
Romashka [77]
The answer i got was x=2 :)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
x−2 over 3−(x+3 over 5)=−1
Simplify: (Show steps)
2 over 15x+−19 over 15=−1
Step 2: Add 19/15 to both sides.
2 over 15x+−19 over 15+19 over 15=−1+19 over 15
2 over 15x=4 over 15
Step 3: Multiply both sides by 15/2.
(15 over 2)*(2 over 15x)=(15 over 2)*(4 over 15)
