If LM = 7 and LN 7 and LN = 18, what is MN?​

Mathematics

Lena [83]2 years ago

Answer:

There are two possible values: MN=5 or MN=19

Step-by-step explanation:

The points L and N are collinear, so we can visualize them on a right line as in Figure 1.  

First suppose that M is between L and N as in Figure 2. Then we can compute the distance between L and N as LN=LM+MN. Substracting LM from both sides, we obtain that MN=LN-LM=12-7=5.

For the other possibility, suppose that M is not between L and N as in Figure 3. Because LM<LN, it's impossible that M is located further to the right than N. Then M isn't at the right of L. Therefore, M is at the left of L, so L is between M and N, so the distance between M and N is given by MN=ML+LN=LM+LN=7+12=19.

Brent is a researcher for a food company. He is on a team creating a reduced-calorie version of its flagship cracker. The team w
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The research team created a cracker with fewer calories. The average content of calories of the new crackers per serving of 6 should be less than 60.

To test it a random sample of 26 samples of the new cracker was taken and the calories per serving were measured.

Then the study variable is

X: calories of a 6 serve sample of the new reduced-calorie version. (cal)

The variable has a normal distribution with a population standard deviation of 0.82 cal.

To test the claim that the new crackers have on average less than 60 calories, the parameter of interest is the population mean (μ) and the hypotheses are:

H₀: μ ≥ 60

H₁: μ < 60

α: 0.01

Since the variable has a normal distribution and the population variance is known, the best statistic to use to conduct the test is a Standard Normal

Z= \frac{(X[bar]-Mu)}{\frac{Sigma}{\sqrt{n}}  } ~N(0;1)

This test is one tailed to the left, wich means that the null hypothesis will be rejected at low levels of the statistic.

Z_{\alpha } = Z_{0.01} = -2.334

If Z ≤ -2.334, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

If Z > -2.334, the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

Using the data of the sample I've calculated the sample mean.

X[bar]= ∑X/n= 1548.61/26= 59.56 cal

Z_{H_0}= \frac{(59.56-60)}{\frac{0.82}{\sqrt{26} } } = -2.736

The observed Z value is less than the critical value, so the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

At a level of significance of 1%, you can conclude that the population mean of calories of the samples of new crackers is less than 60 cal.

I hope it helps!

Twenty percent of the employees in a company have managerial positions, and 25 percent of the employees in the company have MBA
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

12%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree.

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=P(MBA and manager)*100

We are given that

P(MBA)=0.25

P(Manager)=0.20

P(MBA/ manager)=0.60

P(MBA and manager)=?

P(MBA/ manager)=P(MBA and manager)/P(Manager)

P(MBA/ manager)*P(Manager)=P(MBA and manager)

P(MBA and manager)=0.6*0.2

P(MBA and manager)=0.12

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=0.12*100

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=12%.

Thus, the percentage of the employees is both manager and has MBA degree is 12%
