A field in the shape of a right triangle is bordered on one side by a stream, on another side by a road, and on a third side by

a fence. What angle does this stream make with the road? Enter your answer in the box. Round only your final answer to the nearest degree. ° A field in the shape of a right triangle. The bottom of the field is a fence. The right side of the field is a road. The fence and the road meet at a right angle. The third side of the field is a stream. The distance along the road between the fence and the stream is 20 yards. The distance along the stream between the fence and the road is 27 yards.

Answer:

42°

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, it may help you to draw it out to visualize it. You want to find the angle between the stream and road. Based on the description the triangle looks like this.

                         / |

Stream(27)      /   |  Road( 20)

                     /__|

                   Fence

You know the length of the road is 20, and the stream is 27. The angle can be found by using Cos∅=a/h. Adjacent to where the road and stream meet is the road, 20, and hypotenuse is the stream, 27.

So 20/27 = .74 = Cos∅

To find the angle ∅ use inverse cosine to get 42°.

Hope that helps and let me know if I did anything incorrectly!

The 7 a.m. flight from Dallas to Chicago is on time 75% of the time. Fran created this spinner to simulate the scenario. Fran sp
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Choice C; The flight will be late on one of the three days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The flight is 75% of the time. This means that out of 4 flights, 3 are on time and  the result of Franc's spinner should reflect this fact, i.e his spinner should give 75% probability of flights on time.

Choice A says the flight is on time 0% of the time, This is not true, therefore this is not a correct interpretation of the three spins.

Choice B says the flight is on time 100% of the time, This is not true, therefore this is not a correct interpretation of the three spins.

Choice C says the flight is on time 66% of the time, which is close to 75%. Therefore this choice is close and correct.

Choice D says the flight is on time 30% of the time, This is not true, therefore this is not a correct interpretation of the three spins.

Thus only choice C is correct.

A museum conducts a survey of its visitors in order to assess the popularity of a device which
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

i:

The appropriate null hypothesis is H_0: p \geq 0.2

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is H_1: p < 0.2

The p-value of the test is 0.1057 > 0.05, which means that there is not sufficient evidence that fewer than 20% of the museum visitors make use of the device, and so, it should not be withdrawn.

ii:

The p-value of the test is 0.1057

Step-by-step explanation:

Question i:

The device will be withdrawn if fewer than 20% of all of the museum’s visitors make use of it.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at least 20%, that is:

H_0: p \geq 0.2

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is less than 20%, that is:

H_1: p < 0.2

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.2 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0.2, \sigma = \sqrt{0.2*0.8} = \sqrt{0.16} = 0.4.

The device will be withdrawn if fewer than 20% of all of the museum’s visitors make use of it. Of a random sample of 100 visitors, 15 chose to use the device.

This means that n = 100, X = \frac{15}{100} = 0.15

Test statistic:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{0.15 - 0.20}{\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{100}}}

z = -1.25

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion below 0.15, which is the p-value of z = -1.25.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.25 has a p-value of 0.1057.

The p-value of the test is 0.1057 > 0.05, which means that there is not sufficient evidence that fewer than 20% of the museum visitors make use of the device, and so, it should not be withdrawn.

Question ii:

The p-value of the test is 0.1057
