What is the correct reason for statement 2?

Workers have been down the street installing two blinking red lights in front of the fire station. The two lights are always tur

daser333 [38]

Answer:

After 88 seconds, they will blink together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time after which the first light blinks = 8 seconds

Time after which the second light blinks = 22 seconds

Initially, both the lights blink together.

To find:

The time at which they will blink together again.

Solution:

Let us have a look at the time after which each light will blink.

First light will blink after:

8 s, 16 s, 24 s, 32 s, 40 s, 48 s, 56 s, 64 s, 72 s, 80 s, 88 s, 96 s, 104 s, ......

Second light will blink after:

22 s, 44 s, 66 s, 88 s, 110 s, .....

It can be seen that common time is 88 second, at which the both will blink together.

So, the answer is 88 s.

This answer can also be computed by taking the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of both the numbers i.e. 8 and 22.

Using the factorization method:

$8=\underline{2}\times 2\times 2$

$22=\underline{2}\times 11$

Common is 2.

Therefore the LCM will be:

$2\times 2\times2\times 11 = \bold{88}$

So, the answer is 88 s.

Persons having Raynaud's syndrome are apt to suffer a sudden impairment of blood circulation in fingers and toes. In an experime

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

There is enough evidence to say that the true average heat output of persons with the syndrmoe differs from the true average heat output of non-sufferers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to perform a hypothesis test on the difference between means.

The null and alternative hypothesis are:

$H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a: \mu_1-\mu_2$

μ1: mean heat output for subjects with the syndrome.

μ2: mean heat output for non-sufferers.

We will use a significance level of 0.05.

The difference between sample means is:

$M_d=\bar x_1-\bar x_2=0.63-2.09=-1.46$

The standard error is

$s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\sigma_1^2/n_1+\sigma_2^2/n_2}=\sqrt{0.3^2/9+0.5^2/9}=\sqrt{ 0.038 } \\\\ s_{M_d}=0.194$

The t-statistic is

$t=\dfrac{M_d}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{-1.46}{0.194}=-7.52$

The degrees of freedom are

$df=n_1+n_2-2=9+9-2=16$

The critical value for a left tailed test at a significance level of 0.05 and 16 degrees of freedom is t=-1.746.

The t-statistic is below the critical value, so it lies in the rejection region.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to say that the true average heat output of persons with the syndrmoe differs from the true average heat output of non-sufferers.

Sas Asa These triangles cannot be proven congruent Help please

AlekseyPX

AAS rule can prove these triangles are congruent cuz u see two angles are marked as equal to each other but the side that’s overlapped on each other(the line the triangles are sharing) shows that the side is equal length to each other.
