A cereal manufacturer decides to offer a new family-sized box based on the regular-sized box. They want the volume of the family

-sized box to be three times the volume of the regular-sized box. However, they want the length of the family-sized box to be the same as the regular-sized box. If they decide to double the width to create the family-sized box, by what factor must they increase the height?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A cereal manufacturer decides to offer a new family-sized box based on the regular-sized box. They want the volume of the family-sized box to be three times the volume of the regular-sized box. However, they want the length of the family-sized box to be the same as the regular-sized box.

If original dimensions are l,w and h then volume = lwh

Volume of new box is= 3lwh

But here w becomes 2w and l remains the same.  Let h' be the new height

Then we have

l(2w)h' = 3lwh\\h' =1.5 h

So by 1.5 factor height should be dilated.

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

\frac{BA}{YX}=\frac{BC}{YZ}, ∠C ≅∠Z

\frac{AC}{XZ}=\frac{BA}{YX}, ∠A≅∠X

\frac{BA}{YX}=\frac{BC}{YZ}=\frac{AC}{XZ}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

so

In this problem

The corresponding sides are

BA and YX  

BC and YZ

AC and XZ

The corresponding angles are

∠A and ∠X

∠B and ∠Y

∠C and ∠Z

so

\frac{BA}{YX}=\frac{BC}{YZ}=\frac{AC}{XZ}

and

∠A≅∠X

∠B≅∠Y

∠C ≅∠Z

therefore

\frac{BA}{YX}=\frac{BC}{YZ}, ∠C ≅∠Z

\frac{AC}{XZ}=\frac{BA}{YX}, ∠A≅∠X

\frac{BA}{YX}=\frac{BC}{YZ}=\frac{AC}{XZ}

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

No, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that true average task time with armor is less than 2 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that true average task time with armor is less than 2 seconds.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu=2\\\\H_a:\mu< 2

The significance level is 0.01.

The sample has a size n=52.

The sample mean is M=1.95.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=0.2.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{0.2}{\sqrt{52}}=0.028

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{1.95-2}{0.028}=\dfrac{-0.05}{0.028}=-1.803

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=52-1=51

This test is a left-tailed test, with 51 degrees of freedom and t=-1.803, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

P-value=P(t

As the P-value (0.039) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that true average task time with armor is less than 2 seconds.

Cameron buys 2.45 pounds of apples and 1.65 pounds of pears. Apples and pears each cost c dollars per pound. If the total cost a
Leto [7]

Answer:

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation to find the value for c, we need to declare what c is first.

c = price of fruit

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

Now we multiplied c to 2.45 and 1.65 and added them together, because whatever the value of c is will give us the equivalence of the sum of 4.12 + 0.75.

Now to check if the equation is right, let's solve for c.

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

4.1c = 4.87

Now to get the value of c, we divide both sides of the equation by 4.1.

\dfrac{4.1c}{4.1}=\dfrac{4.87}{4.1}

c = 1.19

Now let's substitute the value of c in the equation to see if we got it right.

2.45(1.19) + 1.65(1.19) = 4.12 + 0.75

2.92 + 1.96 = 4.87

4.87 = 4.87

Therefore concluding that the value of c is 1.19.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a. is not found to be significant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression analysis is a statistical technique which is used for forecasting. It determines the relationship between two variables. It determines the relationship of two or more dependent and independent variables. It is widely used in stats to find trend in the data. It helps to predict the values of dependent and independent variables. In the given question, there are 25 observations and the regression equation is given. X and Y are considered as dependent variables.
