X=27 and y=11
if you let each number equal x and y we know the sum is 38 so x+y=38
and the smaller is 16 less than the larger
. so if we say the smaller number is 7 then x-16=y
these can be solved as a simultaneous equation. x+(x-16)=38
2x-16=38
2x=54
x=27
(27)-16=y
y=11
so the answer is x=27 y=11

victus00 [196]

Answer:

x=12.07

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mean \=x =12cm

Standard deviation \sigma=0.04

Significance level \alpha=5\%=0.05

Therefore

Confidence level 95\%=0.95

From table P(z

Generally the equation for Z-score is mathematically given by

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

x=z\sigma+\mu

x=1.645*0.04+12

x=12.07
