The triangle is formed by using the diameter as its base, so angle opposite to the diameter, i.e., ∠QRS = 90°

Given that QR and SR are equal, so it is an isosceles triangle. Hence, ∠RQS and ∠RSQ are equal. Hence, ∠RSQ = x + 6° because given that ∠RQS = x + 6°.

We know that all angles of a triangle adds up to 180°.

So, (x+6°) + (x+6°) + 90° = 180°

=> 2(x+6°) + 90° = 180°

=> 2(x+6°) = 180° - 90°

=> 2(x+6°) = 90°

=> 2x + 12° = 90°

=> 2x = 90° - 12°

=> 2x = 78°

=> x = 78°/2

=> x = 39°

Tom [10]

Question:

Abel planned for a garden to be 42 m long but found that it needs to be 24 m long to fit in his backyard. He found the change of scale below.

$\frac{42m}{7}/{\frac{24m}{7} = \frac{6}{4}$

Which is Abel’s error?

Abel should have written the ratio as $24 metres/7 metres$

Abel should have written the ratio as $24 metres/42 metres$

Abel should have divided both numbers by 6.

Abel should have divided both numbers by 4.

Answer:

Abel should have divided both numbers by 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Measured Length of backyard = 42m

Actual Length of backyard = 24m

Measured Ratio: $\frac{42m}{7}/{\frac{24m}{7} = \frac{6}{4}$

Required

Error in calculation of measured ratio

From Abel's calculation:

It can be observed that He divided both numbers by 7

Though 42/7 = 6 but that's not so for 24/7

24/7≠4;

Instead 24/7 = 3.43 (Approximated)

To get the actual ration, he has to divide both numbers by the highest common factor

The common factors of 42 and 24 include 2,3,6 of which the highest is 6

Hence; HCF of 42 and 24 = 6

So, we can conclude that the error in his calculation is having not dividing both numbers by 6

In selecting a sulfur concrete for roadway construction in regions that experience heavy frost, it is important that the chosen

Lesechka [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - In selecting a sulfur concrete for roadway construction in regions that experience heavy frost, it is important that the chosen concrete has a low value of thermal conductivity in order to minimize subsequent damage due to changing temperatures. Suppose two types of concrete, a graded aggregate and a no-fines aggregate, are being considered for a certain road. The table below summarizes data on thermal conductivity from an experiment carried out to compare the two types of concrete.

Type ni xi si

Graded 42 0.486 0.187

No-fines 42 0.359 0.158

To find - a. Formulate the above in terms of a hypothesis testing problem.

b. Give the test statistic and its reference distribution (under the null hypothesis).

c. Report the p-value of the test statistic and use it to assess the evidence that this sample provides on the scientific question of difference in mean conductivity of the two materials at the 5% level of significance.

Proof -

a.)

Hypothesis testing problem :

H0 : There is significant difference between mean conductivity for the graded concrete and mean conductivity for the no fines concrete.

H1 : There is no significant difference between mean conductivity for the graded concrete and mean conductivity for the no fines concrete.

Test statistic :

$Z = \frac{x_{1} - x_{2} }{\sqrt{\frac{s_{1} ^{2} }{n_{1}} + \frac{s_{2}^{2} }{n_{2}} } }$

$Z = \frac{0.486 - 0.359 }{\sqrt{\frac{0.03496 }{42} + \frac{0.02496 }{42} } }$

$Z = \frac{0.127 }{\sqrt{0.001468}}$

$Z = \frac{0.127 }{0.0377}$

⇒Z(cal) = 3.3687

Z(tab) = 1.96

As Z (cal) > Z(tab)

So, we reject H0 at 5% Level of significance

p-value = 0.99962

Hence

There is significant difference in mean conductivity at the two materials.

What is the gif of nine and fifty two

Novosadov [1.4K]

I assume you mean 9+52,
If so you can add the 9 and the 2 together:
9+2 = 11

Then you can add the 11 on to the 50 to get the final answer:
50+11 = 61

Hope this helps! :)

3x+y=115x-y=21 Directions: Solve each system of equations by elimination. Clearly identify your solution.

olchik [2.2K]

To solve, we will follow the steps below:

3x+y=11 --------------------------(1)

5x-y=21 ------------------------------(2)

since y have the same coefficient, we can eliminate it directly by adding equation (1) and (2)

adding equation (1) and (2) will result;

8x =32

divide both-side of the equation by 8

x = 4

We move on to eliminate x and then solve for y

To eliminate x, we have to make sure the coefficient of the two equations are the same.

We can achieve this by multiplying through equation (1) by 5 and equation (2) by 3

The result will be;

15x + 5y = 55 ----------------------------(3)

15x - 3y =63 --------------------------------(4)

subtract equation (4) from equation(3)

8y = -8

divide both-side of the equation by 8

y = -1
