The perimeter is 36 so, (x+3)+(2x-9)+x = 36 solve and you will get x=12, then substitute x into the triangle you will have 9,12 and 15. Find the area by using 1/2 x base x height and the area is 54 inches^2 . The answer is (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

a/q

x + x - 3 + 2x - 9 = 36

4x - 12 = 36

4x = 36 + 12 = 48

x = 48/4 = 12

x = 12

so,

x = 12

x - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9

2x - 9 = 2(12) - 9 = 15

we know,

area = 1/2 × base × height

so,

→ 1/2 × 12 × 9

→ 1 × 6 × 9

→ 54 inches.

The population standard deviation for the temperature of beers found in Scooter's Tavern is 0.26 degrees. If we want to be 90% c

siniylev [52]

Answer:

19 beers must be sampled.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05$

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.05 = 0.95$ , so Z = 1.645.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

The population standard deviation for the temperature of beers found in Scooter's Tavern is 0.26 degrees.

This means that $\sigma = 0.26$

If we want to be 90% confident that the sample mean beer temperature is within 0.1 degrees of the true mean temperature, how many beers must we sample?

This is n for which M = 0.1. So

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.1 = 1.645\frac{0.26}{\sqrt{n}}$
