Find the product of two numbers whose sum is 11 and diffrence is 3

Mathematics
1 answer:
spayn [35]1 year ago
7 0

Answer:

The numbers are 4 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, we can set up two equations.

x + y = 11 and x - y = 3

We now need to solve for one of these variables in terms of the other. I am choosing to solve for x, but either way will work. I'm using the second equation and solving for x by adding y to each side, which gives me

x = 3 + y

Now that I have a value for x, I can plug this into my first equation

3 + y + y = 11

Combining like terms gives me

3 + 2y = 11

Subtracting 3 from both sides leaves

2y = 8

And dividing by 2 to solve for y gets

y = 4

We now know one number, and to solve for the other we can plug our y value into either equation

x + 4 = 11

Subtracting 4 from both sides yields the x value

x = 7

So the two numbers are 4 and 7

You are challenged to a lucky draw game. If you draw a face card (K, Q, J) from a standard deck of cards, you earn 10 points. If
Aleksandr [31]

The Expected value of a draw from the given question is; A; 0.77

We are told the face cards are K, Q, J. This means that there are 3 face cards for each of the 4 suits.

Since you earn 10 points for each face card, it means that;

total possible gain = 10 × 3 × 4 = 120

In a deck of cards, there are a total of 52 cards.

This means that;

Number of cards that are not K, Q or J = 52 - (4 × 3) = 40

Since 2 points are lost for drawing any of this 40 cards, then;

Total possible loss = 40 × 2 = 80

Expected gain = 120 - 80

Expected gain = 40

Expected value of a draw = 40/52

Expected value of a draw = 0.77

A group contains n men and n women. how many ways are there to arrange these people in a row if the men and women alternate?
Kobotan [32]

A group contains n men and n women. 2n! number of ways are there to arrange these people in a row if the men and women alternate. Arrangement is known as permutation.

A permutation of a set in mathematics is, broadly speaking, the rearrangement of its elements if the set already has an ordered structure into a sequence or linear order. The act or procedure of altering the linear order of an ordered set is referred to as a "permutation."

When the order of the arrangements counts, a permutation is a mathematical technique that establishes the total number of alternative arrangements in a collection. Choosing only a few items from a collection of options in a specific sequence is a common task in arithmetic problems.

All employees at three stores of a large retail chain were asked to fill out a survey.a. Is it random b. Systematic c. Stratifie
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

d. Cluster

Step-by-step explanation:

Random: Random is asking a group of people from a population. For example, to estimate the proportion of Buffalo residents who are Bills fans, you ask 100 Buffalo residents and estimate to the entire population.

Systematic: Similar to random. For example, you want to estimate something about a population, and your sample is every 5th people you see on the street.

Cluster:Divides the population into groups, with geographic characteristics.. Each element is the groups is used. Suppose you want to study the voting choices of Buffalo Bills players. You can divide into offense, defense and special teams, and ask each player of these 3 groups.

Stratified: Done on a group of clusters, that is, from each cluster(group), a number of people are selected.

In this problem, we have that:

All employees at three stores of a large retail chain were asked to fill out a survey.

Divided by clusters(stores).

So the orrect answer is:

d. Cluster
