Given:
The figure of a triangle.
To find:
The missing length.
Solution:
Let x be the missing length.
Basic proportionality theorem(BPT): According to this theorem, if a line is parallel to the one side of a triangle then that the line intersects the other two sides of the triangle in the same ratio.
Using Basic proportionality theorem, we get
[tex]\dfrac{6}{8-6}=\dfrac{12-x}{x}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{6}{2}=\dfrac{12-x}{x}[/tex]
[tex]3=\dfrac{12-x}{x}[/tex]
[tex]3x=12-x[/tex]
Adding x on both sides, we get
[tex]3x+x=12[/tex]
[tex]4x=12[/tex]
[tex]x=\dfrac{12}{4}[/tex]
[tex]x=3[/tex]
The missing length is 3 Therefore, the correct option is D.

A company has a new process for manufacturing large artificial sapphires. In a trial run, 37 sapphires are produced. The mean weight for these 37 gems is 6.75 carats, and the sample standard deviation is 0.33 carat. Obtain a 95% confidence interval for the true mean weight of all sapphires produced by the new process. Interpret your results in the context of the problem. State the margin of er
Answers
Answer:
The margin of error is of 0.11 carats.
The 95% confidence interval for the true mean weight of all sapphires produced by the new process is between 6.64 and 6.86 carats. The interpretation is that we are 95% sure that the true weight of all sapphires produced by the company using the new process is between these two values.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that we use the t-distribution to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 37 - 1 = 36
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 36 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0281
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.0281\frac{0.33}{\sqrt{37}} = 0.11[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The margin of error is of 0.11 carats.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 6.75 - 0.11 = 6.64 carats
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 6.75 + 0.11 = 6.86 carats.
The 95% confidence interval for the true mean weight of all sapphires produced by the new process is between 6.64 and 6.86 carats. The interpretation is that we are 95% sure that the true weight of all sapphires produced by the company using the new process is between these two values.

Answers
Answer:
See below for answers and explanations
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are comparing two proportions of a large sample size. Therefore, conducting a 2-proportion z-test is appropriate. Conditions are already assumed, so we can conduct the test.
We are testing our null and alternate hypotheses which are:
H: p1=p2 (there is no difference)
Ha: p1≠p2 (there is a difference)
Given:
x1=180
n1=580
x2=238
n2=600
p1=180/580=0.31
p2=238/600=0.4
p=(180+238)/(580+600)=418/1180=0.35
Use the formula to calculate the z-statistic:
[tex]Z=\frac{p_1-p_2}{\sqrt{p(1-p)(\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2})}}[/tex]
[tex]Z=\frac{0.31-0.4}{\sqrt{0.35(1-0.35)(\frac{1}{580}+\frac{1}{600})}}[/tex]
[tex]Z=-3.24[/tex]
Calculate p-value (note that this is two-sided):
1) normalcdf(-1e99,-3.24)=5.977105194*10^-4
2) Since this is a two-sided test, we double it to get p=0.001195421
Conclusion: Since 0.0012<0.05, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is a significant difference in the proportion of individuals in these groups in favor of capital punishment for persons under the age of 18 because our p-value is extremely low.

Slope intercept form: y =mx + c

4y = -x + 8
Divide the equation by 4
[tex]\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{-x}{4}+\frac{8}{4}\\\\y = \frac{-1}{4}x + 2[/tex]
Here, m = -1/4 and y-intercept = 2
2) 3x + 4y = 0

Answer:
15.2cm
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given diagram;
