Vesna [10]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

45 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the property:

Interior angle + exterior angle = 180°

exterior angle = 8°

now, using the formula:

number of sides = 360/exterior angle

number of sides = 360/8

number of sides = 45 ANS.

Mr. Brown's salary is $32,000 and it increases by 3% each year. What is the explicit rule for this sequence in simplified form?

katovenus [111]

Answer:

This is the concept of geometric series. We are required to find the recursive formula for year n. Here we will use the formula;

nth=ar^(n-1)

where;

a=first term

r=common ratio

n=nth term

Thus

a=8.50

r=(8.85)/(8.50)=1.0412

thus the formula will be:

nth=8.50(1.0412)^n

Round your answer to this problem to the nearest degree.

Vika [28.1K]

Use the sine law: sinB/b = sinA/a

SinB = b*sinA/a

sinB = 3*sin120° /8

∠ B = 18.94° ≈ 19°

Find a solution to the linear equation −2x−2y=8 by filling in the boxes with a valid value of x and y.Provide your answer below:

inna [77]

Given

$-2x-2y=8$

To find a solution for the linear equation, the first step is to write the equation in slope-intercept form:

-Pass the x-term to the right side of the equation by applying the opposite operation to both sides of the equal sign:

$\begin{gathered} -2x+2x-2y=8+2x \\ -2y=2x+8 \end{gathered}$

-Divide both sides by -2:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{2x}{-2}+\frac{8}{-2} \\ y=-x-4 \end{gathered}$

Once you have expressed the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, replace it with any value for x and calculate the corresponding value of y, for example, x=2

$\begin{gathered} y=-(2)-4 \\ y=-2-4 \\ y=-6 \end{gathered}$

One solution for the linear equation is x=2 and y=-6, you can check the solution by replacing the values on the original equation, with both values the result should be 8:

$\begin{gathered} -2x-2y \\ -2\cdot2-2\cdot(-6) \\ -4+12=8 \end{gathered}$

As you can see the values are a valid solution for the linear equation.

So the solution is:

$-2(2)-2(-6)=8$

A manufacturer uses production method to produce steel rods. A random sample of 17 steel rods resulted in lengths with a standar

Arisa [49]

Answer:

$\chi^2 =\frac{17-1}{12.15} 22.09 =15.87$

Traditional method

We can find a critical value in the chi square distribution with df =16 who accumulates $\alpha/2 =0.05$ of the area on each tail and we got:

$\chi^2_{crit}= 7.962$

$\chi^2_{crit}=26.296$

Since the calculated value is between the two critical values we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true deviation is NOT significantly different from 3.5 cm

Confidence level method

We can find the p value like this

$p_v =2*P(\chi^2 >15.87)=0.92$

Since the p value is higher then the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is NOT significantly different from 3.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided

$n=17$ represent the sample selected

$\alpha=0.1$ represent the significance

$s^2 =4.7^2 =22.09$ represent the sample variance

$\sigma^2_0 =3.5^2 =12.15$ represent the value to check

Null and alternative hypothesis

We want to verify if the new production method has lengths with a standard deviation different from 3.5 cm, so the system of hypothesis would be:

Null Hypothesis: $\sigma^2 = 12.15$

Alternative hypothesis: $\sigma^2 \neq 12.15$

The statistic for this case is given by:

$\chi^2 =\frac{n-1}{\sigma^2_0} s^2$

The degrees of freedom are:

$df =n-1= 17-1=16$

$\chi^2 =\frac{17-1}{12.15} 22.09 =15.87$

Traditional method

We can find a critical value in the chi square distribution with df =16 who accumulates $\alpha/2 =0.05$ of the area on each tail and we got:

$\chi^2_{crit}= 7.962$

$\chi^2_{crit}=26.296$

Since the calculated value is between the two critical values we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true deviation is significantly different from 3.5 cm

Confidence level method

We can find the p value like this

$p_v =2*P(\chi^2 >15.87)=0.92$

Since the p value is higher then the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is significantly different from 3.5 cm
