Since if he gets the driveway done in 20 minutes he gets 1/20th of the driveway done in 1 minute (if x=20 then x/20=1 by dividing both sides by 20) and if his brother gets 1/12th of the driveway done in one minute, then if t represents the time it takes to shovel the driveway, t/20+t/12=1 driveway shoveled as 1/20+1/12=amount they can do in 1 minute, so t/20+t/12 is how much they can do in t minutes. Multiplying both sides by 20*12=240, we get 12t+20t=32t=240. Dividing both sides by 32, we get 240/32=7.5 minutes to shovel the driveway.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the standard deviation is less than 14.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that that the null hypothesis is

       H_o  :  \sigma < 14.7

Now given from the question that this null hypothesis was rejected, it mean, in non technical term that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the standard deviation is less than 14.7.

What are the measures of the missing angles x°, y° of a regular triangle if one angle measure equals 60°?​
MArishka [77]

Answer:

So each interior angle measurement of the regular triangle is 60 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle is regular, this means all the side measurements are congruent to each other and that all the angle measurements are congruent to each other.

If the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees and you know they are each the same then you could either solve x+x+x=180 or know we are just dealings with an equiangular triangle in which all angles have measurement 60 degrees.

If need more convincing, let's actually solve:

x+x+x=180

3x=180

x=180/3

x=60

So each interior angle measurement of the regular triangle is 60 degrees.
