---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find half the length of the chord (from midpoint to the end point touching the circumference)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
20 ÷ 2 = 10 inches

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Formula
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a² + b² = c²

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the length of the segment
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10² + b² = 12²
b² = 12² - 10²
b² = 144 - 100
b² = 44
b = √44
b = 6.63 inches

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The length of the segment is 6.63 inches

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

What is the length of AC ?<br><br> 3ft<br> 4ft<br> 9ft<br> 18ft
WINSTONCH [101]

ΔACB and ΔMNB are similar. Therefore the corresponding sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{AC}{MN}=\dfrac{CB}{NB}\\\\MN=9\ ft\\CB=2\cdot3\ ft=6\ ft\\NB=3\ ft

Substitute:

\dfrac{AC}{9}=\dfrac{6}{3}\\\\\dfrac{AC}{9}=2\ \ \ \ |\cdot9\\\\AC=18\ ft

Christmas Tree lights are used not only for Christmas trees, but sometimes to decorate college dorm rooms. Suppose that a string
puteri [66]

Answer: Hello!

Ok, because the bulbs are wired in series, then if only one fails, all the string fails.

Then we need to see the probability for the 20 bulbs to not fail.

If the probability for each bulb to fail is 0.02, then the complement (or the probability of working fine) is 1 - 0.02 = 0.98

then we have 20 bulbs, and each one has a probability of 0.98 of working alright, then the probability for all them to work alright is the multiplication of this probabilities, this is

0.98^{20} = 0.6676

rounded up in the decimal, we have 0.668

then the correct answer is c.

The region bounded by the given curves is rotated about the specified axis. Find the volume V of the resulting solid by any meth
Julli [10]

Answer:

V  = 23π/6

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 2π ∫ [a to b] (r * h) dx

y = −x² + 23x − 132

y = −(x² − 23x + 132)

y = −(x − 11) (x − 12)

Parabola intersects x-axis (line y = 0) at x = 11 and x = 12 ----> a = 11, b = 12

r = x

h = −x² + 23x − 132

V = 2π ∫ [11 to 12] x (−x² + 23x − 132) dx

V  = 23π/6

The length of time it takes to find a parking space at 9 A.M. follows a normal distribution with a mean of 7 minutes and a stand
julsineya [31]

Answer:

There is a 2.28% probability that it takes less than one minute to find a parking space. Since this probability is smaller than 5%, you would be surprised to find a parking space so fast.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X.

Also, a probability is unusual if it is lesser than 5%. If it is unusual, it is surprising.

In this problem:

The length of time it takes to find a parking space at 9 A.M. follows a normal distribution with a mean of 7 minutes and a standard deviation of 3 minutes, so \mu = 7, \sigma = 3.

We need to find the probability that it takes less than one minute to find a parking space.

So we need to find the pvalue of Z when X = 1

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{1 - 7}{3}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.0228.

There is a 2.28% probability that it takes less than one minute to find a parking space. Since this probability is smaller than 5%, you would be surprised to find a parking space so fast.
