Answer:

52metre

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use proportion in solving this question, the land has a scale of 1 1/4 cm to 3 1/4 m then the proportion is

( 1 1/4)/ (3 1/4 ) =[blueprint of the plot of land/length of the actual peace of land]

But we need to convert those mixed fractions to improper fraction for easy simplification

1 1/4= [(4×1)+4]= 5/2

3 1/4=[(4×3)+1)]=13/4

Then we can proceed with simplification as

(5/2)/(13/4)=[blueprint of the plot of land/length of the actual peace of land]

But we were given length of the actual peace of land as 20 cm, then

(5/2)/(13/4)=[blueprint of the plot of land/20]

If we cross multiply we have

[blueprint of the plot of land] ×13/4 =5/2 ×20

[blueprint of the plot of land] =(5/2 ×20)÷(13/4)

= 50/(13/4)

=(4×13)/50

= 52

Therefore, the length of the actual peace of land is 52metre

Psychologists in Montreal and Toronto conducted a study to determine if babies show any preference for speech over general noise
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

H0 : μ1 - μ2 = 0

H1: : μ1 - μ2 ≠ 0

we reject the Null and we conclude that babies prefer actual speaking to humming.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ1 - μ2 = 0

H1: : μ1 - μ2 ≠ 0

Mean difference, d = 27.79

Standard deviation of difference, Sd = 63.18

Sample size, n = 50

The test statistic :

d / (Sd / √n)

Test statistic :

27.79 / (63.18 / √50)

27.79 / 8.9350012

= 3.11

Using the Test statistic score, we can obtain the Pvalue

Using the standard normal table ;

Pvalue = P(x<-Z or x>Z) = 0.0018709

Pvalue is very low

Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject the Null and we conclude that babies prefer actual speaking to humming.

20 is what % greater than 5
drek231 [11]
Find how much greater 20 is than 5
20-5=15
the % is of 5, so the percent is percent out of 5

20 is x% of 5 greater than 5
20=(x%)5+5
minus 5 both sides
15=(x%)5
divide both sides by 5
3=x%
percent means parts out of 100
x%=x/100
3=x/100
times 100 both sides
300=x

answer is 300%

Find the length of a missing side of the triangle around your nearest tenth​
Allisa [31]

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

14^2 = 8^2 + x^2

196 = 64 + x^2

Subtract 64 from both sides:

132 = x^2

Take the square root of both sides:

X = 11.49

Rounded to nearest tenth = 11.5
