Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The secant is the ratio of the hypotenuse to the side adjacent to the angle. However, we do not have the measure of the hypotenuse given to us. This is a right triangle, so we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse. Our sides have lengths of 5 and 12.

5²+12²=c²

25+144=c²

c²=169

We square root both sides

c=13

Now, we take our hypotenuse (13) and we put it over the adjacent side to angle L, which is 5.

Therefore, the secant is B) 13/5.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!

ad-work [718]

Answer:

no enough evidence to draw up a conclusion

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

let: \mu _{1} = decay after 2 weeks

    \mu _{2} = decay after 16 weeks

Making the hypotheses:

Null hypothesis; H_{o} = \mu _{1}  - \mu _{2} = 0

the deviation = 0.05

the standard difference  = 4

Conditions:

The normal distribution curve can be plotted on a graph and the plot shows that the distribution is a skewed distribution.

Then,

t = \frac{(123.8-16.4)-0}{\sqrt{\frac{4.6^{2} }{5}+\frac{16.09^{2} }{5}   } } \\  = 0.989

Therefore, it can be concluded that 0.1983 > 0.05. This presents our failure to reject the null hypothesis.

Thus, there is not enough evidence to conclude that polyester decays more in less than 2 weeks.
