Answer:

a = 3, b = 4, c = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming we're working with a right triangle, where c is the hypotenuse, then using the definition of the cosine being the adjacent side over the hypotenuse, then we know:

a = 3, because it is the side adjacent to B

b = 4, because it is the side adjacent to A

c = 5, because it is the denominator in bot fractions

This of course assumes that there is no additional ratio in place. For example, if the lengths were instead 8, 6 and 10 respectively, then the cosines given would still be 4/5 and 3/5. Truthfully these only tell relative sizes of the sides, and not their absolute sizes.

Karl is making a pot of chili. The recipe calls for StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction cup of chili powder, but Karl only wants

mina [271]

Given:

The recipe calls for $\dfrac{3}{8}$ cup of chili powder.

Karl only wants to use half as much so it won’t be so spicy.

To find:

How much chili powder should Karl use?

Solution:

We have,

Chill power for recipe = $\dfrac{3}{8}$ cup

Chill power used by Karl is half of chill power for recipe.

$\text{Chill power used by Karl}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{3}{8}$ cup $\text{Chill power used by Karl}=\dfrac{3}{16}$ cup

Therefore, $\dfrac{3}{16}$ cup of chili powder should Karl use.

The distribution of the test statistic for analysis of variance is the F-distribution. true or false

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

True. See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"

If we assume that we have $k$ groups and on each group from $j=1,\dots,k$ we have $k$ individuals on each group we can define the following formulas of variation:
