Answer:

x = 10, y = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{AE}{AC} = \frac{DE}{BC}, substitute values

\frac{x}{4} = \frac{12.5}{5} ( cross- multiply )

5x = 50 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 10

and

\frac{AD}{AB} = \frac{DE}{BC} , that is

\frac{y}{3} = \frac{12.5}{5} ( cross- multiply )

5y = 37.5 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 7.5

A newsgroup is interested in constructing a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all Americans who are in favor of a ne
Leto [7]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all Americans who are in favor of a new Green initiative is (0.6247, 0.6923).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

Of the 533 randomly selected Americans surveyed, 351 were in favor of the initiative.

This means that n = 533, \pi = \frac{351}{533} = 0.6585

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6585 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.6585*0.3415}{533}} = 0.6247

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6585 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.6585*0.3415}{533}} = 0.6923

The 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all Americans who are in favor of a new Green initiative is (0.6247, 0.6923).

Please I need to know if its true or false please lmk!!!​
Papessa [141]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>According to the complex conjugate root theorem:</u>

if a complex number is a root of a polynomial, its conjugate is also the root of the polynomial

We are given all the roots of the polynomial and there is only one complex root

Since according to the complex conjugate root theorem, there can be either none or at least 2 complex roots of a polynomial

We can say that this set of roots of a polynomial is incorrect

Answer:

Skewed to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

The left side of the graph is at 2 and is 4 units from the middle at 6. The right side of the graph is at 9 and is 3 units from the middle. As such the graph is skewed left since it is a greater distance from the left to the center.
