Complete question :

Birth Month Frequency

January-March 67

April-June 56

July-September 30

October-December 37

Answer:

Yes, There is significant evidence to conclude that hockey​ players' birthdates are not uniformly distributed throughout the​ year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Observed value, O

Mean value, E

The test statistic :

χ² = (O - E)² / E

E = Σx / n = (67+56+30+37)/4 = 47.5

χ² = ((67-47.5)^2 /47.5) + ((56-47.5)^2 /47.5) + ((30-47.5)^2/47.5) + ((37-47.5)^2/47.5) = 18.295

Degree of freedom = (Number of categories - 1) = 4 - 1 = 3

Using the Pvalue from Chisquare calculator :

χ² (18.295 ; df = 3) = 0.00038

Since the obtained Pvalue is so small ;

P < α ; We reject H0 and conclude that there is significant evidence to suggest that hockey​ players' birthdates are not uniformly distributed throughout the​ year.

A rectangular piece of metal is 20 in longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 4 in long are cut from the four corners and the
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is good!  The length of the metal is 20 inches longer than the width.  But we fold up 4-inch flaps on each side, so the height of the box is 4 inches, and the length and width will each decrease by 8 inches (4 inches on each side).  Since the length and width decrease by the same amount, the length will still be 20 inches longer than the width.  So the equations would be:

l = w + 20

vol = l x w x h = 1716 in3

1716 = (w + 20)(w)(4)

1716 = 4w2 + 80w

4w2 + 80w - 1716 = 0

4(w2 + 20w - 429) = 0

4(w + 33)(w - 13) = 0

w + 33 = 0, so w = -33

w - 13 = 0, so w = 13

Since the width can't be negative, the width of the box is 13 and the length is 33 (13 + 20).

But remember, the length and width of the piece of metal are each 8 inches longer than the box, so it was 41 inches by 21 inches.

velikii [3]

Step-by-step explanation: 5n − 19 + n + 7 = 144 − 6n

6n − 12 = 144 − 6n

12n = 156

n = 13

m∠z = (144−6n)°

m∠z = (144−6×13)°

m∠z = 66°
