X + Y + Z = 264. Since Y is 1 bigger than X, Y = X + 1. Since Z is 1 bigger than Y, Z = Y + 1. But Y = X + 1, so Z = (X + 1) + 1 = X + 2.

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems there is two ways to solve this, remember that this is just one of them.

The triangle to the left is an isosceles triangle by definition. It is given that two of its sides are equal.

The angles opposite the equal sides in an isosceles triangle are congruent. It is given that one of these angles is 70 degrees, so the other one must be 70 degrees as well.

This angle is opposite to Angle Y. Vertical angles are congruent, so Angle Y must be 70 degrees.

D is the answer.

A company employs two shifts of workers. Each shift produces a type of gasket where the thickness is the critical dimension. The

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

a) $[-0.134,0.034]$

b) We are uncertain

c) It will change significantly

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Since the variances are unknown, we use the t-test with 95% confidence interval, that is the significance level = 1-0.05 = 0.025.

Since we assume that the variances are equal, we use the pooled variance given as

$s_p^2 = \frac{ (n_1 -1)s_1^2 + (n_2-1)s_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2}$ ,

where $n_1 = 40, n_2 = 30, s_1 = 0.16, s_2 = 0.19$ .

The mean difference $\mu_1 - \mu_2 = 10.85 - 10.90 = -0.05$ .

The confidence interval is

$(\mu_1 - \mu_2) \pm t_{n_1+n_2-2,\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s_p^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_p^2}{n_2}} = (-0.05) \pm t_{68,0.025} \sqrt{\frac{0.03}{40} + \frac{0.03}{30}}$

$= -0.05\pm 1.995 \times 0.042 = -0.05 \pm 0.084 = [-0.134,0.034]$

b) With 95% confidence, we can say that it is possible that the gaskets from shift 2 are, on average, wider than the gaskets from shift 1, because the mean difference extends to the negative interval or that the gaskets from shift 1 are wider, because the confidence interval extends to the positive interval.

c) Increasing the sample sizes results in a smaller margin of error, which gives us a narrower confidence interval, thus giving us a good idea of what the true mean difference is.
