Answer:
The z-distribution should be used for this problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population distribution is assumed to be normal. Which distribution to use?
If we have the standard deviation for the sample, we use the t-distribution.
If we use the standard deviation for the population, we use the z-distribution.
There is a known standard deviation of 2.2 minutes.
This means that 2.2 is the population standard deviation, and thus, the z-distribution should be used for this problem.
We know there are 4 quarts in a gallon, so how many quarts in 2.5 gallons anyway?
Answer:
Perpendicular lines.
Step-by-step explanation:
They are called perpendicular lines.
If the slope of one line is m them the slope of the other is -1/m.
Side 1 = short side = 2x-3
side 2 = longer side = (short side) + 6 = (2x-3)+6 = 2x+3
side 3 = side 2 = 2x+3
Side 2 and side 3 are the longer two congruent sides
Add up the three sides and set them equal to the given perimeter of 33. Solve for x
(side1)+(side2)+(side3) = perimeter
(2x-3)+(2x+3)+(2x+3) = 33
(2x+2x+2x) + (-3+3+3) = 33
6x+3 = 33
6x+3-3 = 33-3
6x = 30
6x/6 = 30/6
x = 5
If x = 5, then the longer sides are 2*x+3 = 2*5+3 = 10+3 = 13 inches each
(note: the short side is 2*x-3=2*5-3=10-3 = 7 inches)
Answer: 13 inches
