Answer:

x < 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Four time the number = 4x

Eight less than four times the number = 4x - 8

Eight less than four times the number is less than 56,

that is , 4x - 8 < 56

4x - 8 + 8 < 56 + 8 [ adding both sides by 8 ]

4x + 0 < 64

4x < 64 [ divide both sides by 4 ]

x < 16

In T-ball, the distance to each successive base is 50 feet. If the distance from home plate to the pitcher’s mound is 38 feet, h

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

<h2>The distance from the pitcher's mound and to second base is 37.99 approximately.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The diamond is a square, which in this case has 50 feet long each side, and from home to pitcher is 38 feet. Notice that home is a vertex of the square and the pitcher's mound is the intersection of the diagonals, where they cut half.

We can find the distance from the pitcher to first base using Pythagorean's Theorem, where 50 feet is the hypothenuse.

$50^{2} =38^{2}+x^{2}\\x^{2}=50^{2}-38^{2}\\x=\sqrt{2500-1444}\\ x=\sqrt{1056}\\ x \approx 32.5 \ ft$

Therefore, the distance from the pitcher to first base is 32.5 feet, approximately.

Now, we can use again Pythagorean's Theorem to find the distance from pitcher to second base, where the hypothenuse is 50 feet.

$50^{2}=32.5^{2}+y^{2}\\y^{2}=50^{2}-32.5^{2}\\y=\sqrt{2500-1056.25}\\ y =\sqrt{1443} \approx 37.99$

Therefore, the distance from the pitcher's mound and to second base is 37.99 approximately.

(this results make sense, because the diagonals of a square intersect at half, that means all bases have the same distance from pitcher's mound, so the second way to find the distance asked in the question is just using theory)

Every time you conduct a hypothesis test, there are four possible outcomes of your decision to reject or not reject the null hyp

almond37 [142]

Answer:

1. A. You allow the passenger to board his flight when the passenger has a weapon.

2. B. You select the passenger for further inspection when the passenger has no weapon.

Explanation:

1. Remember, a Type I error in simple words means that the assumption "the passenger has a weapon" (null hypothesis) is actually true, but the airport security screener incorrectly concluded it is false. In other words, he assumed the passenger had no weapon and allowed the passenger to board his flight when he actually did have one.

2. While, a Type II error means that the assumption "the passenger has a weapon" (null hypothesis) is actually false, but the airport security screener incorrectly concluded it is true. In other words, he assumed the passenger had a weapon and selected the passenger for further inspection when he actually didn't have one.
