What value of x would make the figure a parallelogram (show your math please)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Verdich [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Diagonals of a parallelogram bisects each other.

Therefore,

4x = 8

x = 8/4

x = 2

Or

5x = 3x + 4

5x - 3x = 4

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of cancer diagnoses between the two groups is (0.3834, 0.5166).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction between normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

The randomly sampled 400 dogs from homes where an herbicide was used on a regular basis, diagnosing lymphoma in 230 of them.

This means that:

p_h = \frac{230}{400} = 0.575, s_h = \sqrt{\frac{0.575*0.425}{400}} = 0.0247

Of 200 dogs randomly sampled from homes where no herbicides were used, only 25 were found to have lymphoma.

This means that:

p_n = \frac{25}{200} = 0.125, s_n = \sqrt{\frac{0.125*0.875}{200}} = 0.0234

Distribution of the difference:

p = p_h - p_n = 0.575 - 0.125 = 0.45

s = \sqrt{s_h^2+s_n^2} = \sqrt{0.0247^2 + 0.0234^2} = 0.034

Confidence interval:

The confidence interval is:

p \pm zs

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower bound is 0.45 - 1.96(0.034) = 0.3834

The upper bound is 0.45 + 1.96(0.034) = 0.5166

The 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of cancer diagnoses between the two groups is (0.3834, 0.5166).

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The confidence Interval is [- 0.7053  10.4521]

a: The  hypotheses  are

H0: μ1=μ2    against the claim Ha :μ1≠μ2

b. The critical value for t∝/2 for 17 d.f  t > 2.508 and  t < -2.111

c. t= -2.8422

d. The calculated value of t= -2.8422 is less than t < -2.11 the critical value therefore we reject H0 and conclude there is a difference between the two means.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the standard deviations are not the same then the confidence intervals for mean differences are calculated as

(x1`-x2`)- t∝/2 √s1²/n1 + s2²/n2 < u1-u2 < (x1`-x2`)+ t∝/2 √s1²/n1 + s2²/n2

x1`= 21        x2`= 27

n1=  10       n2= 14

s1= 5.6       s2= 4.3

The degrees of freedom is calculated using

υ = [s₁²/n1 + s₂²/n2]²/ (s₁²/n1 )²/ n1-1 + (s₂²/n2)²/n2-1

= 17

The t∝/2 for 17 d.f = 2.11

Putting the values

(x1`-x2`)- t∝/2 √s1²/n1 + s2²/n2 < u1-u2 < (x1`-x2`)+ t∝/2 √s1²/n1 + s2²/n2

(21-27) - 2.11√5.6²/10+ 4.3²/14 < u1-u2 <(21-27)  +2.11√5.6²/10+4.3²/14

6- 2.11*2.111 < u1-u2 <  ( 6 )  +2.11*2.111

6- 4.4521 < u1-u2 <  ( 6 )  +5.294

- 1.5479 < u1-u2 <  10.4521

The confidence Interval is [- 0.7053  10.4521]

a: The  hypotheses  are

H0: μ1=μ2    against the claim Ha :μ1≠μ2

The claim is that there is a difference in the average time spent by the two services

b. The critical value for t∝/2 for 17 d.f  t > 2.508 and  t < -2.111

The degrees of freedom is calculated using

υ = [s₁²/n1 + s₂²/n2]²/ (s₁²/n1 )²/ n1-1 + (s₂²/n2)²/n2-1

= 17

c. The test statistic is

t= (x1`-x2`)  /√s1²/n1 + s2²/n2

t= (21-27)  /√5.6²/10+ 4.3²/14

t= -6/2.111

t= -2.8422

d. The calculated value of t= -2.8422 is less than t < -2.11 the critical value therefore we reject H0 and conclude there is a difference between the two means.

If a =6, what is the value of 2a(3b + 5c)?
leva [86]

Answer:

<h2>36b + 60c</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Put a = 6 to the expression 2a(3b + 5c):

(2)(6)(3b + 5c) = 12(3b + 5c)               <em>use the distributive property</em>

= (12)(3b) + (12)(5c) = 36b + 60c
