In △ ABC, ∠C = 57° and ∠A = 103°. Side CB= 6.5 cm. Draw △ A′B′C′ under the same condition as △ ABC. Leave all construction marks as evidence of your work, and label all side and angle measurements(use text box). What can you conclude about △ ABC and △ A′B′C′? Justify your response.
Answer:
ΔA'B'C' is congruent to ΔABC
Step-by-step explanation:
See attached for the construction of ΔA'B'C'. (The vertices are labeled ABC.)
We computed angle B to be ...
∠B = 180° -∠A -∠C
∠B = 180° -103° -57° = 20°
We constructed segment BC of length 6.5. Then we constructed angles of 20° and 57° from B and C, respectively. The location where the rays from those angles cross is point A', and the angle there is 103°, as required.

ΔA'B'C' is congruent to ΔABC by the ASA congruence postulate.

A comparison is made between two bus lines to determine if arrival times of their regular buses from Denver to Durango are off schedule by the same amount of time. For 51 randomly selected runs, bus line A was observed to be off schedule an average time of 53 minutes, with standard deviation 17 minutes. For 60 randomly selected runs, bus line B was observed to be off schedule an average of 60 minutes, with standard deviation 13 minutes. Do the data indicate a significant difference in average off-schedule times? Use a 5% level of significance.
a. Level of significance, null and alternative hypothesis
b. What sampling distribution will you use? What assumptions are you making? What is the value of the sample test statistic?
c. Find or estimate the P-value
d. Based on your answers to part a and c will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? Are the data statistically significant at level alpha?
e. Interpret your conclusion in the context of the application
Answer:
a) Level of significance α=0.05
Two-tailed test, with null and alternative hypothesis:
[tex]H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a:\mu_1-\mu_2\neq 0[/tex]
b) Student's t distribution. We assume equal variances for both populations, independent sampled values and populations normally distributed.
Test statistic t=-2.4
c) P-value = 0.018
d) Rejection of the null hypothesis.
The data is statistically significant.
e) There is evidence to conclude there is significant difference in average off-schedule times between the bus lines. The difference we see in the samples seems not due to pure chance.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the difference between populations means.
The claim is that there is a significant difference in average off-schedule times for this bus lines.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a:\mu_1-\mu_2\neq 0[/tex]
The significance level is 0.05.
The sample 1 (bus line A), of size n1=51 has a mean of 53 and a standard deviation of 17.
The sample 2 (bus line B), of size n2=60 has a mean of 60 and a standard deviation of 13.
The difference between sample means is Md=-7.
[tex]M_d=M_1-M_2=53-60=-7[/tex]
The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:
[tex]s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\dfrac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{17^2}{51}+\dfrac{13^2}{60}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{5.667+2.817}=\sqrt{8.483}=2.913[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:
[tex]t=\dfrac{M_d-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{-7-0}{2.913}=\dfrac{-7}{2.913}=-2.4[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this test are:
[tex]df=n_1+n_2-1=51+60-2=109[/tex]
This test is a two-tailed test, with 109 degrees of freedom and t=-2.4, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):
[tex]\text{P-value}=2\cdot P(t<-2.4)=0.018[/tex]
As the P-value (0.018) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.
The null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that there is a significant difference in average off-schedule times for this bus lines.

a. The respondents are a census.
b. The respondents are a population.
c. The respondents are a voluntary response sample.
d. The respondents are a self-selected sample.
What is wrong with this type of sampling method?
a. The survey question is "loaded," or intentionally worded to elicit a desired response.
b. It is too expensive.
c. Many people may choose not to respond to the survey.
d. Responses may not reflect the opinions of the general population.
e. It is too time consuming
Answer:
1. Option c
2. Option d
Step-by-step explanation:
This type of survey is includes a sample made up of voluntary responses. People only choose to or do not choose to respond.
This type of sampling method is most of the time unbelievable because generally only people with strong opinions about this particular questions will respond and it is usually towards the same direction as the question and this might not reflect the opinion of the whole population making the survey biased.
Part A: The respondents are a voluntary response sample (Option C)
Part B: Responses may not reflect the opinions of the general population (Option D)
The total number of internet users = 1072
Percentage of the total number of people that chose to respond = 38%
Note that this survey does not compel all the population to respond to the survey. Responses are gotten from voluntary respondents.
Also note that a voluntary response sample is a sample that consists of participants who chose to participate in a sample group voluntarily.
In this type of survey, the people who decided to provide voluntary responses to the survey are called voluntary response samples
The percentage of those that chose to respond to this survey (38%) is less than half of the total population. This obviously shows that the responses may not reflect the opinions of the general population

Entrance to a prestigious MBA program in India is determined by a national test where only the top 10% of the examinees are admitted to the program. Suppose it is known that the scores on this test are normally distributed with a mean of 420 and a standard deviation of 80. Parul Monga is trying desperately to get into this program. What is the minimum score that she must earn to get admitted?
Answer:
The minimum score that she must earn to get admitted is 523.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the scores are normally distributed, we can calculate the probability using the z-score.
The distribution has a mean of 420 and a standard deviation of 80.
We have to calculate the z-score z* that satisfies:
[tex]P(z>z^*)=0.1[/tex]
This happens for z*=1.28155.
Then, we can calculate the score as:
[tex]X=\mu+z\cdot\sigma=420+1.28155\cdot 80=420+102.524=522.524[/tex]

Answer:
$2350
Step-by-step explanation:
If 94 is 4%, multiply it by 25 to get $2350, or 100%
the cost of the item is $ 2350.
To find the cost of the item, we can set up an equation using the information given.
Let's denote the cost of the item as $ x.
According to the given information, the sales tax on the item is 4 % and is equal to $ 94. We can express this as:
0.04 x = 94
To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.04:
x = tax on item / sales tax
x = 94 / 0.04
x = 2350
Therefore, the cost of the item is $ 2350.

A regression was run to determine if there is a relationship between the happiness index (y) and life expectancy in years of a given country (x).The results of the regression were:
y = a + bx
a = -0.762
b = 0.119
r2 = 0.8649
r = 0.93
A) Write the equation of the Least Squares Regression line of the form y = + x
B) If a country increases its life expectancy, the happiness index will increase or decrease?
C) If the life expectancy is increased by 3.5 years in a certain country, how much will the happiness index change?
D) Use the regression line to predict the happiness index of a country with a life expectancy of 67 years.
Answer:
(A) [tex]y=-0.762+0.119x[/tex]
(B) If a country increases its life expectancy, the happiness index will increase.
(C) If the life expectancy is increased by 3.5 years in a certain country, the happiness index will increase by 0.4165.
(D) If the life expectancy is 67 years in a certain country, the happiness index will be 7.21.
Step-by-step explanation:
A regression analysis was performed to determine if there is a relationship between the happiness index (y) and life expectancy in years of a given country (x).
The output of the regression analysis are as follows:
a = -0.762
b = 0.119
r² = 0.8649
r = 0.93
(A)
The equation of the Least Squares Regression line of the form y = _ + _ x is:
[tex]y=-0.762+0.119x[/tex]
(B)
The correction between the variables happiness index (y) and life expectancy in years of a given country (x) is, 0.93.
The correlation coefficient is positive. This implies that there is a positive relation between the two variables, i.e. as the value of life expectancy in years increases the happiness index also increases.
Thus, if a country increases its life expectancy, the happiness index will increase.
(C)
Compute the value of y for x = x + 3.5 as follows:
[tex]y=-0.762+0.119x[/tex]
[tex]=-0.762+0.119\times (x+3.5)\\\\=(-0.762+0.119x)+0.4165\\\\=y+0.4165[/tex]
Thus, if the life expectancy is increased by 3.5 years in a certain country, the happiness index will increase by 0.4165.
(D)
Compute the value of y for x = 67 as follows:
[tex]y=-0.762+0.119x[/tex]
[tex]=-0.762+0.119\times 67\\\\=-0.762+7.973\\\\=7.211\\\\\approx 7.21[/tex]
Thus, if the life expectancy is 67 years in a certain country, the happiness index will be 7.21.
A cylindrical metal pipe has a diameter of 8.4 millimeters and a height of 10 millimeters. A hole cut out of the center has a diameter of 6 millimeters.
A smaller cylinder is cut out of a larger cylinder. The smaller cylinder has a diameter of 6 millimeters. The larger cylinder has a diameter of 8.4 millimeters. Both cylinders have a height of 10 millimeters.
What is the volume of metal in the pipe? Use 3.14 for and round the answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic millimeter.
Answer:
[tex]271.3 mm^3\\[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the volume of the hole and subtract it from the volume of the cylinder.
The volume of a cylinder is given as:
[tex]V = \pi r^2h[/tex]
where r = radius
h = height
A cylindrical metal pipe has a diameter of 8.4 mm and a height of 10 mm.
Its radius is 4.2 mm. Therefore, its volume is:
[tex]V = 3.14 * 4.2^2 * 10 = 553.9 mm^3[/tex]
A hole cut out of the center has a diameter of 6 mm. Its height is also 10 mm.
Its radius is 3 mm. Therefore, its volume is:
[tex]V = 3.14 * 3^2 * 10 = 282.6 mm^3[/tex]
Therefore, the volume of metal in the pipe is:
[tex]553.9 - 282.6 = 271.3 mm^3[/tex]

Reflect on the concept of function. What concepts (only the names) did you need to accommodate the concept of function in your mind? What is the simplest function you can imagine? In your day to day, is there any occurring fact that can be interpreted as a function? Is it possible to view a function? What strategy are you using to get the graph of a function?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this kind of question you'd be better off if you'd write down and share your own answers to these conceptual questions and then ask for Brainly feedback on what you have written. You'll need to understand the concept of "function" often in algebra and beyond.
What concepts (only the names) did you need to accommodate the concept of function in your mind? input, output, rule, domain, range, mapping, variation (direct and inverse)
Simplest function: y = c (there's only one x-value and y equals that value)
In your day to day, is there any occurring fact that can be interpreted as a function? An electronic parking meter: the amount of time you can park at the meter without risking getting a ticket is dependent upon the number of quarters you insert into the meter, e. g, 15 minutes for 25 centers, 30 minutes for 50 cents, and so on.
Is it possible to view a function? Sure. Graph the function.
What strategy are you using to get the graph of a function? Set up a coordinate plane. Label the horizontal axis "x" and the vertical axis "y". Choose x (input) values that are included in the domain of the function. If the domain includes '0' you will be finding the 'y-intercept' of the function. Write the input and output as a point: (x, y). Plot that point. Choose other x values within the domain and calculate the corresponding y value for each. Plot several more points and draw a line or a curve through them. Of course there are more sophisticated strategies for graphing functions. Remember: If you're working with a function, there is never more than one output or y value for any particular input value.

The mean height of women in a country (ages 20minus29) is 64.2 inches. A random sample of 75 women in this age group is selected. What is the probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches? Assume sigmaequals2.84. The probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches is nothing.
Answer:
[tex] z=\frac{65-64.2}{\frac{2.84}{\sqrt{75}}} = 2.440[/tex]
And we can find the probability using the complement rule and with the normal standard table like this:
[tex] P(Z>2.440) =1-P(Z<2.440) = 1-0.993 =0.007[/tex]
The probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches is 0.007
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable that represent the women heights of a population, and we know the following parameters
[tex]\mu=64.2[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=2.84[/tex]
We are interested on this probability
[tex]P(X>65)[/tex]
Since the sample size selected is 75>30 we can use the centrel limit theorem and the appropiate formula to use would be the z score given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
If we find the z score for 65 inches we got:
[tex] z=\frac{65-64.2}{\frac{2.84}{\sqrt{75}}} = 2.440[/tex]
And we can find the probability using the complement rule and with the normal standard table like this:
[tex] P(Z>2.440) =1-P(Z<2.440) = 1-0.993 =0.007[/tex]
The probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 65 inches is 0.007

Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d
(a)
Given a₁ = - 2 and a₄ = 16, then
a₁ + 3d = 16 , that is
- 2 + 3d = 16 ( add 2 to both sides )
3d = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )
d = 6
--------------
(b)
Given
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 11998 , then
a₁ + (n - 1)d = 11998 , that is
- 2 + 6(n - 1) = 11998 ( add 2 to both sides )
6(n - 1) = 12000 ( divide both sides by 6 )
n - 1 = 2000 ( add 1 to both sides )
n = 2001

Percentage of all samples of three men that have mean brain weights within 0.1 kg of the population mean brain weight of 1.20 kg = 78.5%
The sampling error is 0.08083, in terms of the sampling error, 78.5% of samples of three men will have mean brain weights within (1.24×sampling error) of the mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete Question
According to one study, brain weights of men are normally distributed with mean = 1.20 kg and a standard deviation = 0.14 kg.
Determine the percentage of all samples of three men that have mean brain weights within 0.1 kg of the population mean brain weight of 1.20 kg. Interpret your answer in terms of sampling error.
Solution
The Central limit theorem allows us to say
The mean of sampling distribution is approximately equal to the population mean.
μₓ = μ = 1.20 kg
And the standard deviation of the sampling distribution is given as
σₓ = (σ/√N)
σ = population standard deviation = 0.14 kg
N = sample size = 3
σₓ = (0.14/√3) = 0.08083
Percentage of all samples of three men that have mean brain weights within 0.1 kg of the population mean brain weight of 1.20 kg, that is, percentage of all samples of three men with mean brain weights within 1.10 kg and 1.30 kg.
P(1.10 ≤ x ≤ 1.30)
We first normalize or standardize 1.10 and 1.30
The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.
For 1.10 kg
z = (x - μₓ)/σₓ = (1.10 - 1.20)/0.08083 = -1.24
For 1.30 kg
z = (x - μₓ)/σₓ = (1.30 - 1.20)/0.08083 = 1.24
To determine the required probability
P(1.10 ≤ x ≤ 1.30) = P(-1.24 ≤ z ≤ 1.24)
We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities
P(1.10 ≤ x ≤ 1.30) = P(-1.24 ≤ z ≤ 1.24)
= P(z ≤ 1.24) - P(z ≤ -1.24)
= 0.89251 - 0.10749
= 0.78502 = 78.502%
The sampling error is 0.08083, in terms of the sampling error, 78.5% of samples of three men will have mean brain weights within (1.24×sampling error) of the mean.
Hope this Helps!!!
