As part of a project for their Intro Stat course, two students compared two brands of chips, Frito Lays and Golden Flakes, to see which company gives you more for your money. Five bags of each brand (which, according to the label, each contained 35.4 grams) were randomly selected and the contents were measured with a very accurate scale. If the appropriate Wilcoxon test is used to see if there are any significant differences between the two brands in the amount of product they put in their bags, what is the calculated test statistic (Taking Frito Lays as your "Sample A")

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240
