Answer:

(13) The third side is 14 cm

(13) The third side is 16.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(13) & (14)

Required

Solve

(13): Let length AB = x.

Using Pythagoras theorem.

$x^2 = 12^2 + 9^2$

$x^2 = 144 + 81$

$x^2 = 225$

Take positive square root of both sides

$x = \sqrt{225$

$x = 15$

(14): Let length DE = x.

Using Pythagoras theorem.

$x^2 = 8^2 + 14^2$

$x^2 = 64 + 196$

$x^2 = 260$

Take positive square root of both sides

$x = \sqrt{260$

$x = 16.1$ ---approximated

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: 0.8413

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Henry has collected data to find that the typing speeds for the students in a typing class has a normal distribution.

Mean : $\mu=47$

Standard deviation : $\sigma= 4$

Let x be the random variable that represents the typing speeds for the students.

The z-score :-

$z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

For x= 51

$z=\dfrac{51-47}{4}=1$

Using the standard normal distribution table ,the probability that a randomly selected student has a typing speed of less than 51 words per minute :-

$P(x$

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected student has a typing speed of less than 51 words per minute = 0.8413

Explain what is wrong with each of the following randomization procedures, and describe how you would do the randomization corre

zlopas [31]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A.)

The problem with the here is that we might have introduced bias into our sample by failing to randomize the assignment of gender. By pacing the male gender in the treatment group and females into the control group, this might spring up a spurious association in our experiment as a result of a possible confounding variable, gender. Therefore, assignment of subject shouldn't be on the basis of gender.

2.)

Using a coin toss in placing subjects into groups will give a good random assignment, however, since only ten subjects are available and of which 5 will be placed into each group, there is no certainty that there will be equal number of heads and tails during the 10 flips. Alternatively, a random selection of the name of the 10 subjects could be chosen from a raffle.

3.)

Each batch of rat might be homogenous and hence will affect our experiment and definitely our conclusion. It would be best to assign rats from each batch to all treatment groups in other to obtain a good random design

kvv77 [185]

Answer: 57.4

Step-by-step explanation:

First order the numbers from the smallest to the largest:

49.6, 55.1, 57.4, 49.7, 61.1, 43.4, 60.7, 50.1, 50.7, 58.8, 53.9, 43.2, 49.2, 47.9, 51.2

to:

43.2, 43.4, 47.9, 49.2, 49.6, 49.7, 50.1, 50.7, 51.2, 53.9, 55.1, 57.4, 58.8, 60.7, 61.1.

The position of third quartile is:

= (N + 1) * 3/4

= (15 + 1) * 3/4

= 12th position

That number is:

= 57.4

Snezhnost [94]

Area of a circle is found using the formula: A = PI x r^2 where r is the radius of the circle, which is half the diameter.

Using the information in the problem you have:

A= PI x 15^2

A = PI x 225

A = 706.5 sq. In.
