The area of a trapezoid is 60 square inches. One of the bases is 8 inches long. The height is 6 inches long. What is the length
1 answer:
Answer:
12 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A = h(b₁ + b₂ )
where h is the height and b₁, b₂ the parallel bases
Given h = 6, b₁ = 8 and A = 60 , then
× 6 × (8 + b₂ ) = 60 , that is
3(8 + b₂ ) = 60 ( divide both sides by 3 )
8 + b₂ = 20 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
b₂ = 12
The length of the second base is 12 inches

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) H0:
Ha:
(Two tailed test at 5% significance level)
b) n=30
Mean difference =
Std error of mean =
b) Test statistic t = mean diff/std error = -1.552
df = 30-1 =29
p value=0.0657
c) Since p > 0.05 our signi. level, we accept null hypothesis.
There is no significant difference between the means.
d) Using critical value we find that test statistic is > critical value left
So accept H0
Therefore, f(c) = 3c+5
OPTION B is the correct answer
