2 factors that add to 6 but multiply to 60

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The short answer is there isn’t.

Start by writing each of these as an expression:

x * y = 60

x + y = 7

Next, solve each for the same variable; in this case, y:

(x * y) / x = 60 / x

.: y = 60 / x

(x + y) - x = 7 - x

.: y = 7 - x

Next, replace y of the second expression to the first

y = 60 / x & y = 7 - x

.: 7 - x = 60 / x

Now, solve for x:

(7 - x) * x = (60 / x) * x

.: x * 7 - x^2 = 60

This is quadratic, so write it in the form of ax2 + bx + x = 0

(-1)x^2 + (7)x + (-60) = 0

.: a = -1, b = 7, c = -60

Finally solve for b:

x = (-b +- sqrt(b^2 - 4*a*c)) / 2a

.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(7^2 - 4*-1*-60)) / (2 * -1)

.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(49 - 240)) / -2

.: x = (-7 +- sqrt(-191)) / -2

The square root of a negative value is imaginary and thus there’s no real answer to this problem.

The average amount of time that students use computers at a university computer center is 36 minutes with a standard deviation o

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

2119 students use the computer for more than 40 minutes. This number is higher than the threshold estabilished of 2000, so yes, the computer center should purchase the new computers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 36, \sigma = 5$

The first step to solve this question is finding the proportion of students which use the computer more than 40 minutes, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 40. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{40 - 36}{5}$

$Z = 0.8$

$Z = 0.8$ has a pvalue of 0.7881.

1 - 0.7881 = 0.2119

So 21.19% of the students use the computer for longer than 40 minutes.

Out of 10000

0.2119*10000 = 2119

2119 students use the computer for more than 40 minutes. This number is higher than the threshold estabilished of 2000, so yes, the computer center should purchase the new computers.

A bakery sold 36 brownies in a day, which was 30% of the total items sold that day. What was the total number of items the baker

babymother [125]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 36 is 30% of total items

So our equation would be 36/? = 30/100

From there we cross multiply so 36x100 = 3600

From there, we divide 3600 by 100

Therefore, your answer is 120
