Line 1 only should be the answer!
Sqrt(486) - sqrt(24) + sqrt(6)
find the factors of 486 that we can remove from under the square root sign
2 * 243
2 * 3 * 81
2 * 3 * 9 * 9 (we have 2 nines, we can move a 9 outside the sqrt sign)
sqrt(486) = 9 sqrt(6)
Repeating for sqrt(24)
2 * 12
2 * 2 * 6
2 * 2 * 2 * 3 (we can move a 2 outside the sqrt
sqrt(24) = 2 sqrt(6)
Finally, add all 3 terms together
9 sqrt(6) - 2 sqrt(6) + sqrt(6)
8 sqrt(6)
8 times square root of 6 is the final answer
The probability that x >17 will be found as follows:
the z-score is given by:
z=(17-15.2)/0.9=2
Thus
P(X>17)=1-P(x<17)=P-(z=2)
=1-0.9772
=0.0228
Answer:
This would mean 3x=5
so to isolate the x, we divide 5 by 3
and get x=5/3
divide both sides by 7 to get x alone
84/7 = 12
