What is the value of b in the triangle shown below?

Answer:

b= 4 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok. So the area of a triangle is base * height divided by 2.

So, the base is b and the height is 3b.

b*3b= 3b^2.

Now, divide that by 2.

(3b^2)/2.

Now, we know what the area is already- 24 in.^2. So, let's set the area expression that I found earlier equal to this area, since they're the same.

(3b^2)/2 = 24

3b^2 = 48

b^2 = 16

Ok. Let's stop here. Now, we square root both sides to obtain b, but we are presented with a problem here. B can equal both 4 and -4 right? Since -4*-4=16 and 4*4=16. However, it is impossible for a 2d shape to have negative measurements. So, the answer is 4.

Answer:

+4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

A= 1/2 x b x h

24=1/2 x b x 3b

b2=16

b=+4 or -4(N/A)

Answer:

The critical values for α = 0.10 are t=±1.7341.

Step-by-step explanation:

The critical values for a two tailed test are the values of t that are placed in the limit of the significance level. If the test statistic t is greater than this critical values, the null hypothesis is rejected.

To determine this values, we first divide the significance level by 2. With a t-table or app, we can determine the t values for P(x>|t|)=α/2=0.05.

In this case, for a degrees of freedom DF=20-2=18, we have the test statistic t=±1.7341 that satisfies the condition.

Solution of the hypothesis test

In this problem we want to prove if the slope of the regression model is different from 0, by means of a hypothesis test.

First, we state the null and alternative hypothesis:

H_0: B_1=0\\\\H_1: B_1 \neq 0

The significance level is \alpha=0.10.

The degrees of freedom for a simple regression model is:

DF=n-2=20-2=18

The standard error estimated of the slope is 0.0053.

The test statistic t is calculated as:

t=\frac{B_1}{SE}=\frac{0.0214}{0.0053} = 4.0377

The P-value for a two-tailed test for a t=4.0377 and DF=18 is:

P=0.00078

The P-value is smaller than the significance level, so the effect is statistically significant. The null hypothesis is rejected.
