Answer:

9sqrd= 81

12sprd= 144

144+81= 225

$\sqrt{225}$ = 15

so c=15

ps. use Pythagoras to help you.

Answer:

$c=15$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use Pythagoras theorem to find the value of c

Formula to find the hypotenuse:

$c=\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2} }$

The value of a in the formula will be the height & the value for b in the formula is the base.

Now, add the values in the formula:

$c=\sqrt{9^{2}+12^{2} }$

$c=\sqrt{81+144 }$

$c=\sqrt{225}$

$c=15.96871942$

You can simply say that:

$c=15$

I hope this helps :)

I will illustrate this solution with a unique birthday party situation between Jane (the celebrant) and her 10 friends.

In the said party , we will assume that Jane only has 5 chocolates to share among her friends

i. Assuming that the 5 chocolates are of the same type, if she doesn't want to give any friend more than one piece of chocolate, the situation here is said to be WITHOUT REPLACEMENT & UN-ORDERED

n = 10 and k = 5

Total number of possible combinations becomes,

$(\left {n} \atop {k}} \right. )=(\left {10} \atop {5}} \right. )=252$

ii. Assuming that the 5 pieces of chocolate are of the same type and she is willing to give a friend more than one piece of chocolate, the situation is said to be WITH REPLACEMENT & UN-ORDERED

n = 10 and k = 5

Total number of possible combinations becomes,

$(\left {n+k-1} \atop {k}} \right. )=(\left {14} \atop {5}} \right. )=2002$

iii. Assuming that the 5 pieces of chocolate are of different types and she isn't willing to give any friend more than one piece of chocolate, the situation is said to be WITHOUT REPLACEMENT & ORDERED

n = 10 & k = 5

Total number of possible combinations becomes,

$P\left {n} \atop {k}} \right=P\left {10} \atop {5}} \right. =30240$

iv. Assuming the the 5 pieces of chocolate are of different types, if she is willing to give a friend more than one piece of chocolate, the situation is said to be WITH REPLACEMENT & ORDERED

n = 10 AND k = 5

Total number of combinations becomes

$n^k=10^5=100,000$

Sampling with replacement means that one friend can be sampled more than once i.e: A friend receives a piece of chocolate more than once

The order dictates how the sampling is applied.

Answer:

$z=\frac{13-20}{4}=-1.75$

Assuming:

H0: $\mu \geq 20$

H1: $\mu$

$p_v = P(Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest (number of correct answers in the test), on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=100, p=0.2)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

We need to check the conditions in order to use the normal approximation.

$np=100*0.2=20 \geq 10$

$n(1-p)=20*(1-0.2)=16 \geq 10$

So we see that we satisfy the conditions and then we can apply the approximation.

If we appply the approximation the new mean and standard deviation are:

$E(X)=np=100*0.2=20$

$\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{100*0.2(1-0.2)}=4$

So we can approximate the random variable X like this:

$X\sim N(\mu =20, \sigma=4)$

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean". The letter $\phi(b)$ is used to denote the cumulative area for a b quantile on the normal standard distribution, or in other words: $\phi(b)=P(z$
