Use the sin function to solve for the central angle.
Chord length = 2Rsin(c/2)
where
chord length =4.5 feet
radius = 5 feet
C= central angle
Rearrange the formula to get the central angle  and substitute all the given values
Central angle = 53.49 degrees

An experiment on memory was performed, in which 16 subjects were randomly assigned to one of two groups, called "Sentences" or "
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

There is no significant difference between the averages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call

\large X_{sentences} the mean of the “sentences” group

\large S_{sentences} the standard deviation of the “sentences” group

\large X_{intentional} the mean of the “intentional” group

\large S_{intentional} the standard deviation of the “intentional” group

Then, we can calculate by using the computer

\large X_{sentences}=28.75  

\large S_{sentences}=3.53553

\large X_{intentional}=31.625

\large S_{intentional}=1.40788

\large X_{sentences}-X_{intentional}=28.75-31.625=-2.875

The <em>standard error of the difference (of the means)</em> for a sample of size 8 is calculated with the formula

\large \sqrt{(S_{sentences})^2/8+(S_{intentional})^2/8}

So, the standard error of the difference is

\large \sqrt{(3.53553)^2/8+(1.40788)^2/8}=1.34546

<em>In order to see if there is a significant difference in the averages of the two groups, we compute the interval of confidence of  95% for the difference of the means corresponding to a level of significance of 0.05 (5%). </em>

<em>If this interval contains the zero, we can say there is no significant difference. </em>

<em>Since the sample size is small, we had better use the Student's t-distribution with 7 degrees of freedom (sample size-1), which is an approximation to the normal distribution N(0;1) for small samples. </em>

We get the \large t_{0.05} which is a value of t such that the area under the Student's t distribution  outside the interval \large [-t_{0.05}, +t_{0.05}] is less than 0.05.

That value can be obtained either by using a table or the computer and is found to be

\large t_{0.05}=2.365

Now we can compute our confidence interval

\large (X_{sentences}-X_{intentional}) \pm t_{0.05}*(standard \;error)=-2.875\pm 2.365*1.34546

and the confidence interval is

[-6.057, 0.307]

Since the interval does contain the zero, we can say there is no significant difference in these samples.

Phil has 3 times as many rocks as Peter. Together, they have 48 rocks. How many more rocks does Phil have than Peter?
Ivan
Let x = the number of marbles for Phil
Then 3x = the number of marbles for Peter
Together they have 3x+x=48 or 4x=48 and x=12
So Phil has x = 12 marbles and Peter has 3x, let x = 12, 3(12) = 36 marbles.
Peter has 24 more marbles than Phil.
