The quadrilaterals JKLM and PQRS are similar.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sveta_85 [38]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the quadrilaterals are similar, then the ratios of corresponding sides will be equal:

KL : QR = 4 : 5.6 = 4 / 5.6 = 5/7

JM : PS = 7 : 9.8 = 7 / 9.8 = 5/7

LM : RS = 3 : 4.2 = 3 / 4.2 = 5/7

This shows that the ratio of KJ : QP = 5/7

KJ : QP = 2 : x = 2 / x

Therefore, \frac{2}{x}=\frac{5}{7}

cross multiply:  14 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5:  x = 2.8

In an experiment, some diseased mice were randomly divided into two groups. One group was given an experimental drug, and one wa
damaskus [11]

Answer:

D)Yes, because the difference in the means in the actual experiment was more than two standard deviations from 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will test the hypothesis on the difference between means.

We have a sample 1 with mean M1=18.2 (drug group) and a sample 2 with mean M2=15.9 (no-drug group).

Then, the difference between means is:

M_d=M_1-M_2=18.2-15.9=2.3

If the standard deviation of the differences of the sample means of the two groups was 1.1 days, the t-statistic can be calculated as:

t=\dfrac{M_d-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{2.3-(0)}{1.1}=2.09

The critical value for a two tailed test with confidence of 95% (level of significance of 0.05) is t=z=1.96, assuming a large sample.

This is approximately 2 standards deviation (z=2).

The test statistict=2.09 is bigger than the critical value and lies in the rejection region, so the effect is significant. The null hypothesis would be rejected: the difference between means is significant.

True [87]
Answer: 300

You need to change 9% into a decimal so it would be 0.09

Then divide 27 ÷ 0.09 = 300

So 9% of 300 is 27
