Q5.Jumbo is standing on top of a cliff looking at a speed boat out at sea.The vertical of the cliff from the base (sea level) to

jumbo is 80m and the straight distance from jumbo to the speed boat is 170m.
A. Find the horizontal distance from the speed boat to the base of the cliff.

B. If a helicopter is flying 20m directly above jumbo, what is the distance between the helicopter and the speed boat?​

Answer:

A) 150 m

B) 180.28 m

Step-by-step explanation:

A) In order to find the horizontal distance from the base of the cliff to the speed boat, use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the length of the missing side.

We are told that one of the sides is 80 m and the hypotenuse is 170 m. Therefore,

  • a² + b² = c²
  • (80)² + b² = (170)²
  • b² = 170² - 80²
  • b² = 22500
  • b = 150

The horizontal distance between the base of the cliff and the boat is 150 m.

B) Now, the side that was 80 m is now 100 m (includes the height that the helicopter is above Jumbo). The horizontal distance remains the same, 150 m, but the hypotenuse is different. Solving for the hypotenuse will give us the distance between the helicopter and the speed boat.

  • (100)² + (150)² = c²
  • 32500 = c²
  • 180.28 = c

The distance between the helicopter and the speed boat is 180.28 m.

A manufacturing company produces steel housings for electrical equipment. The main component part of the housing is a steel trou
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

H0: Population mean = 8.46

H1: Population mean is not equal to 8.46

The test statistic (t) is given by the following expression -

{t=\frac{\overline{x}-\mu_0}{s/\sqrt{n}}}

We have calculated the sample mean (8.421) and sample standard deviation (0.0461). Therefore, the test statistic (t) will be -

t = (8.421 - 8.46)/(0.0461/sqrt(49)) = -5.92

The left-sided critical value from t-distribution (two-tailed) is -2.01. Thus the test statistic falls in the rejection region and we reject the null hypothesis at 95% confidence level and conclude that the population mean is different from 8.46 inches.

(b)

There are the following four assumptions for a single sample t-test.

The observations are in ratio scale.

The observations have been taken in such a manner that every single observation is independent and uncorrelated from the others.

There should not be any significant outliers in the sample observations.

The sample data should be approximately normal.

(c)

The first assumption is true as the data is in inches. The second assumption cannot be tested now. It will depend upon the situation and study design which we assume as correct in this case. The third assumption is checked by plotting a box plot and finding the outliers. The final assumption can be checked using the Anderson-Darling normality test.

Kindly check the graphical table in the attached images below.

(d)

The data is normal (the p-value of Anderson-Darling test in > 0.05). However, two points in the Box plot are outliers though not grossly different from the entire sample data set. So, we conclude that the assumptions are valid in this case for conducting the t-test.
