Answer:

\cos P\approx 0.26

Step-by-step explanation:

In any right triangle, the cosine of an angle is equal to its adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse, or longest side, of the triangle.

In the given triangle, the adjacent side to angle P is marked as \sqrt{7} and the hypotenuse of the triangle is 10. Therefore, we have:

\cos P=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{10},\\\cos P=0.2645751311,\\\cos P \approx \boxed{0.26}

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf cos \  P \approx 0.26}}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three main trigonometric functions: sine, cosine, and tangent.

We are asked to find the cosine of angle P. The cosine is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse.

  • cos \theta = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

In this triangle, the side measuring √7 is the adjacent side because it is next to angle P. The side measuring 10 is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle.

  • adjacent = √7
  • hypotenuse= 10

cos P= \frac{ \sqrt{7}}{10}

cos P=0.264575131106

Round to the nearest hundredth. The 4 in the thousandths place to the right ( 0.26<u>4</u>575131106) tells us to leave the 6 in the hundredths place.

cos P \approx 0.26

The cosine of angle P is approximately <u>0.26</u>

LenKa [72]

Answer:

Alternative hypothesis: "AT LEAST ONE" of the population means is different from the others

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".  

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"  

If we assume that we have n groups and we want to check if the population means are equal, th best way to check this it's with an ANOVA test.

The hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_{1}=\mu_{2}=\dots =\mu_{n}

Or in words:

Null hypothesis: All treatments/samples come from populations with the same mean

Alternative hypothesis: Not all the means are equal \mu_{i}\neq \mu_{j}, i,j=1.2,\dots ,n

Or we can say:

Alternative hypothesis: "AT LEAST ONE" of the population means is different from the others
