<span>Length of st is 16 Since p is the midpoint of st, that makes sp half of st. So sp = x+4 Given st = 4x Given st = 2(sp) length of st is twice length of sp st = 2(x+4) Set the two different ways of describing st equal to each other. 4x = 2(x + 4) Distribute the 2 4x = 2x + 8 Subtract 2x from both sides 2x = 8 Divide both sides by 2 x = 4 Now substitute the value 4 for x in the length of st st = 4x st = 4*4 st = 16.</span>

A food scientist takes a random sample of 25 cereals in order to test the claim that the mean fiber content is less than 2.5 gra
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Choice A: there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the mean for the fiber content is less than 2.5 gms.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graphs given the more appropriate is one sample t- test

One sample t- test is used and the results are

Hypothesis Test                       Fiber

Sample Mean                          2.62

Sample St. Dev                       3.492

Degrees of Freedom              24

t- test statistic                         0.1718

p- value                                    0.5675

the critical region for this test at ∝= 0.05 is t < -1.711

There is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Since the calculated t=   0.1718 does not fall in the critical region the null hypothesis is accepted that the mean fiber content is not  less than 2.5 grams.T

A sand dune stands 5 feet above sea level. The hill is eroding at a rate of 1 foot per 20 years. Let y represent the height of t
Andrews [41]
The situation will be represented by linear equation, this is given by:
y=ax+b
where:
a=slope=rate
b=y-intercept
from our situation:

a=-1/20
b=5 ft
thus the equation modeling the situation will be:
y=-1/20x+5

Answer: y=-1/20x+5

Roger is building a storage shed with wood blocks that are in the shape of cubic prisms. Can he build a shed that is twice as hi
Fynjy0 [20]

Given that Roger is building a storage shed with wood blocks that are in the shape of cubic prisms.

cube is basicallye a box which is made of squares. That is all the sides (lenght, width and height) are equal.

Now we have to determine, Can he build a shed that is twice as high as it is wide.

that means if width is 1 then height should be twice which is 2.


yes that is possible if we put one cubical prism over another cubical prism. then height of shed due to two prism will be twice than the width.

Hence correct choice should be "A. Yes. For every block of width, he could build two blocks high."
