Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
A toy manufacturer claims that the mean time that its top-selling toy captures children's attention is at least 45 minutes.
Since we need to carry out a hypothesis test whether he can refute the claim.
We always take the alternate hypothesis such that it should satisfy the given statement.
And the null hypothesis can be equal to mean or other than that is given in alternate hypothesis.
So, hypothesis :
Answer: x = 15, ∠K = 45.7°, ∠L = 45.7°, ∠M = 88.6°
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Since ∠K ≅ ∠L, then ΔKLM is an isoceles triangle with base KL
KM ≅ LM
3x + 23 = 7x - 37
23 = 4x - 37
60 = 4x
15 = x
KM = LM = 3x + 23
= 3(15) + 23
= 45 + 23
= 68
KL = 9x - 40
= 9(15) - 40
= 135 - 40
= 95
Next, draw a perpendicular bisector KN from K to KL. Thus, N is the midpoint of KL and ΔMNL is a right triangle.
Use trig to solve for ∠L (which equals ∠K):
cos ∠L =
cos ∠L =
∠L = cos⁻¹
∠L = 45.7
Triangle sum Theorem:
∠K + ∠L + ∠M = 180°
45.7 + 45.7 + ∠M = 180
91.4 + ∠M = 180
∠M = 88.6
Micah did not explain the last step correctly. You cannot cross out a term from the numerator and denominator unless it is a factor. In other words, x² needed to be multiplied and not added in order to cross it out.
