Help please. Find x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Degger [83]2 years ago
5 0
You have to use the Geometric Mean for triangles to find x.  Our form will look like this: \frac{2}{x} = \frac{x}{6+2} which simplifies to \frac{2}{x} = \frac{x}{8}.  Cross multiply to get x^{2} =16.  Therfore, x = 4.  Usually when we take the square root of a number we will end up with both the principle (positive) root and the negative one as well.  But since the 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, we will not consider the -4.  x = 4

Margarita [4]

Answer:

c. A two-tailed test should be performed since the alternative hypothesis states that the parameter is not equal to the hypothesized value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p1 be the average score on a final exam who texted on a regular basis during the lectures for a particular class

And p2 be the average score on a final exam who did not texted at all during the lectures for a particular class

According to the Cameron's point of interest, null and alternative hypotheses are:

H_{0}: p1 = p2

H_{a}: p1 ≠ p2

Two tailed test should be performed since the alternative hypothesis states that the parameter is not equal to the hypothesized value.

a recipe uses 1 1/4 cups of milk to make 10 servings. if the same amount of milk is used for each serving, how many servings can
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

128 servings can be made using 1 gallon of milk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

1\frac{1}{4} cups of milk make 10 servings

1\frac{1}{4} can also be written as 1.25

Ratio of cups of milk to servings = 1.25 : 10

1 gallon = 16 cups

Let,

x be the number of servings made from 1 gallon

Ratio of cups of milk to servings = 16 : x

This is a direct proportion

1.25 : 10 :: 16 : x

Product of mean = Product of extreme

10*16 = 1.25x

160 = 1.25x

1.25x=160

Dividing both sides by 1.25

\frac{1.25x}{1.25}=\frac{160}{1.25}\\x=128

Hence,

128 servings can be made using 1 gallon of milk.
