Answer:

The longest segment is approximately 19.13cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

l = 14cm

w = 11cm

h = 7cm

Required

The length of the longest segment (d)

This is calculated using:

d = \sqrt{l^2 +w^2 + h^2

So, we have:

d = \sqrt{14^2 +11^2 +7^2

Using a calculator, the equation becomes

d = \sqrt{366

Take square roots

d = 19.13cm

Which formula can be used to describe the sequence <br> -3, 3/5, -3/25, 3/125, -3/625
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

a(n) = -3(-1/5)^(n - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the first term, -3, we get the second term, 3/5, by multiplying -3 by -1/5.

Thus, the common ratio is -1/5.

The general formula in this case is a(n)=(first term)(common ratio)^(n - 1), or

a(n) = -3(-1/5)^(n - 1)

The population of Ketchum high school has been decreasing by 5% per year. If it's population is currently 2,600 students, which
Olin [163]
I think its 206 because you'll have to change  5% into a decimal and you'll
get 0.05 because you move the decimal place to the left 2 times. Then multiply
2,600 to 0.05 to get what the population decreasing for a year, (130) then multiply is by 2 (for 2 years) and you'll get
260 students.

An automobile manufacturer claims that its van has a 31.3 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contra
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z=\frac{31.1-31.3}{\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{140}}}=-1.82  

p_v =2*P(z  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.02 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is NOT significantly different from 31.3 at 2% of signficance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=31.1 represent the sample mean

\sigma=1.3 represent the population standard deviation for the sample  

n=140 sample size  

\mu_o =31.3 represent the value that we want to test  

\alpha=0.02 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We can assume that we conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is equal to 31.3 , the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu =31.3  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 31.3  

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

z=\frac{31.1-31.3}{\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{140}}}=-1.82  

P-value  

Since is a two-sided test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(z  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.02 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is NOT significantly different from 31.3 at 2% of signficance.
