Sample A has a mean of M = 6. Sample B has a mean of M = 10. When the two samples are combined, the mean of the combined group is M = 9. Which of the following is the most accurate description for the two sample sizes? The samples are the same size.

Sample A is much bigger than Sample B.

There is not enough information provided to determine this.

Sample B is much bigger than Sample A.

Sample B is much bigger than Sample A

Step-by-step explanation:

It is because when seeing sample B alone we can see it has a larger mean than of Sample A. Mean is greater when the values we are using are of bigger value. Since Sample B has bigger values in it so it also a has bigger mean compared to Sample A which has a smaller mean (smaller values in it)

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2

+2+=+1296%2fx%5e2+

++x%5e2+=+1296%2f2+=+648+

combine all like terms then its just a 2 step equation
