In geometry, it is always advantageous to draw a diagram from the given information in order to visualize the problem in the context of the given.
A figure has been drawn to define the vertices and intersections.
The given lengths are also noted.
From the properties of a kite, the diagonals intersect at right angles, resulting in four right triangles.
Since we know two of the sides of each of the right triangles, we can calculate their heights which in turn are the segments which make up the other diagonal.
From triangle A F G, we use Pythagoras theorem to find
h1=A F=sqrt(20*20-12*12)=sqrt(256)=16
From triangle DFG, we use Pythagoras theorem to find
h2=DF=sqrt(13*13-12*12)=sqrt(25) = 5
So the length of the other diagonal equals 16+5=21 cm
Answer:
We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion of employess are late to work is 0.16, so we need to apply a one sample proportion test:
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
Step-by-step explanation:
Data given and notation
n=25 represent the random sample taken
estimated proportion
is the value that we want to test
represent the significance level
z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)
represent the p value (variable of interest)
Concepts and formulas to use
We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion of employess are late to work is 0.16, so we need to apply a one sample proportion test:
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:
(1)
The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion is significantly different from a hypothesized value
.
Calculate the statistic
Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:
Statistical decision
It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.
The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.
Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:
Answer:
Side of 22 and height of 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s be the side of the square base and h be the height of the tank. Since the tank volume is restricted to 5324 ft cubed we have the following equation:
As the thickness is already defined, we can minimize the weight by minimizing the surface area of the tank
Base area with open top
Side area 4sh
Total surface area
We can substitute
To find the minimum of this function, we can take the first derivative, and set it to 0
