How do you get 24 using 1, -6, -7, -3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rainbow [258]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to set up an expression involving 1, -6, -7, -3.

-6*-3--7+1

We use BODMAS to simplify:

We multiply to get:

18--7+1

We now add to obtain:

18--6

Note that negative negative gives addition.

Therefore:

18+6

This finally simplifies to:

24

The polygons above are similar. Write a similarity statement and solve for x. The images are not drawn to scale.
arsen [322]
The correct answer is D) ABCD ~ NMLK, and x=7.

Based on the way the polygons are marked, A corresponds with N, B corresponds with M, C corresponds with L and D corresponds with K. Using this, we set up a proportion:

12/8 = (5x+1)/(5x-11)

Cross multiplying, we have:
12(5x-11) = 8(5x+1)

Using the distributive property, 
12*5x - 12*11 = 8*5x + 8*1
60x - 132 = 40x + 8

Subtract 40x from both sides:
60x - 132 - 40x = 40x + 8 - 40x
20x - 132 = 8

Add 132 to both sides:
20x - 132 + 132 = 8+132
20x = 140

Divide both sides by 20:
20x/20 = 140/20
x = 7

A cable is made up of four wires. The breaking strength of each wire is a normally distributed random variable with mean 10 kN a
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

a) μ =35.858KN

b) median cable strength =36.06KN

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X1, X2, X3, X4 represent the strength of the 4 wires.

We can find the median of the cable strength in minitab as:

Stat - Basic statistics- Display descriptive statistics-variable (C5) -statistics(median) - ok

Median cable strength is 36.06 KN

Therefore the estimate of the mean strength of the cable is 35.858 KN, and the estimate of the median cable strength is 36.06 KN.
