Triangle XYZ is translated 4 units up and 3 units left to yield ΔXYZ. What is the distance between any two corresponding points

Mashcka [7]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

5 units

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

A point 4 up and 3 over from its original location has moved a distance that can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.

... d² = 4² +3² = 16 +9 = 25

... d = √25 = 5 . . . . units

An automobile manufacturer is considering using robots for part of its assembly process. Converting to robots is an expensive pr

LenKa [72]

Answer:

(a) The correct option is: H₀: p = 0.02 vs. Hₐ: p < 0.02.

(b) Explained below.

(c) The better value of α will be 0.10.

Step-by-step explanation:

An automobile manufacturer is considering using robots for part of its assembly process only if there is strong evidence that the proportion of defective installations is less for the robots than for human assemblers.

To test whether the proportion of defective installations is less for the robots than for human assemblers use a single-proportion z-test.

(a)

The hypothesis can be defined as:

H₀: The proportion of defective installations is same for both the robots and human assemblers, i.e. p = 0.02.

Hₐ: The proportion of defective installations is less for the robots than for human assemblers, i.e. p < 0.02.

The alternate hypothesis is the claim or the statement that is being tested.

In this case we need to test whether the proportion of defective installations is less for the robots than for human assemblers or not, so that the manufacturer can decide whether they want to apply the conversion.

Thus, the correct option is:

H₀: p = 0.02 vs. Hₐ: p < 0.02.

(b)

A type I error occurs when we discard a true null hypothesis and a type II error is made when we fail to discard a false null hypothesis.

In this case a type I error will be committed if conclude that the proportion of defective installations is less for the robots than for human assemblers when in fact it is not.

And a type II error will be committed if we fail to conclude that proportion of defective installations is less for the robots than for human assemblers.

(c)

The power of the test is the probability of rejecting a false null hypothesis.

The power of the test sis affected by the significance level of the test (α).

Lesser the significance level of the test the lesser is the power of the test.

If the value of α is reduced from 0.05 to 0.01 then the region of acceptance will increase. This implies that there is low probability of rejecting the null hypothesis even when it is false.

So higher the value of α the higher is the probability of making a correct decision.

Thus, the better value of α will be 0.10.

Two poles are connected by a wire that is also connected to the ground. The first pole is 18 ft tall and the second pole is 24 f

9966 [12]

Answer:

72 feet from the shorter pole

Step-by-step explanation:

The anchor point that minimizes the total wire length is one that divides the distance between the poles in the same proportion as the pole heights. That is, the two created triangles will be similar.

The shorter pole height as a fraction of the total pole height is ...

18/(18+24) = 3/7

so the anchor distance from the shorter pole as a fraction of the total distance between poles will be the same:

d/168 = 3/7

d = 168·(3/7) = 72

The wire should be anchored 72 feet from the 18 ft pole.

Comment on the problem

This is equivalent to asking, "where do I place a mirror on the ground so I can see the top of the other pole by looking in the mirror from the top of one pole?" Such a question is answered by reflecting one pole across the plane of the ground and drawing a straight line from its image location to the top of the other pole. Where the line intersects the plane of the ground is where the mirror (or anchor point) should be placed. The "similar triangle" description above is essentially the same approach.

__

Alternatively, you can write an equation for the length (L) of the wire as a function of the location of the anchor point:

L = √(18²+x²) + √(24² +(168-x)²)

and then differentiate with respect to x and find the value that makes the derivative zero. That seems much more complicated and error-prone, but it gives the same answer.

The length of a rectangular floor is 2 feet more than its width. The area of the floor is 168 square feet. Kim wants to use a ru

ioda

Let width of the floor be x feet, them area is
x(x+2) = 168
x^2 + 2x - 168 = 0
(x - 12)(x + 14) - 0
so x = 12
the floor is 12 ft by 10 ft

the width of the rug should be 10 - 2(2) = 6 feet
