Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides of the triangle.

let the other 2 sides be x and x - 3 , then

12 + x + x - 3 = 31

2x + 9 = 31 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 11 and x - 3 = 11 - 3 = 8

The 3 sides are 12, 11, 8

with shortest side 8

Formulate the indicated conclusion in nontechnical terms. Be sure to address the original claim.
Art [367]

Answer:

The claim made by the motor company was true. The old sedan, the Libra, would average less than 19 miles per gallon in the city.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to test the claim made by the Carter Motor Company, that their old sedan, the Libra, would average less than 19 miles per gallon in the city.

The hypothesis to test the claim is as follows:

<em>H₀</em>: The old sedan, the Libra, would average not less than 19 miles per gallon in the city, i.e. <em>μ</em> ≥ 19.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The old sedan, the Libra, would average less than 19 miles per gallon in the city, i.e. <em>μ</em> < 19.

It is provided that the conclusion is to reject the null hypothesis.

This implies that, it was concluded that the old sedan, the Libra, would average less than 19 miles per gallon in the city.

Hence, the claim made by the motor company was true.

How do you find the solution
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
Given that there were 30 bacteria present originally.
a=30
Also given that the number doubles every one hour.
After one hour the count =2×30=60
Since the count doubles every hour it forms a G.P. with r=2
a,ar,ar2........
The count at the end of 2nd hour=ar^2=30×2^2=120
The count at the end of 4th hour=ar^4=30×2^4=480
The count at the end of 8th hour=ar^8n=30×2^8=7680
etc.
The count at the end of n^th hour=ar^n=30×2^n

Also, the equation y=30*(2)^8/1 give the same result y= 7680
