Answer: 92, 93, and 94

Step-by-step explanation: The problem is asking us to find three consecutive integers that have a sum of 279. Three consecutive integers can be represented as followed.

X ⇒ <em>first integer</em>

X + 1 ⇒ <em>second integer</em>

X + 2 ⇒ <em>third integer</em>

<em />

Since the sum of our three consecutive integers is 279, we can set up an equation to represent this.

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 279

We can simplify on the left side of the equation.

3x + 3 = 279

      -3     -3   ← subtract 3 on both sides

3x = 276

÷3     ÷3   ← divide both sides by 3

X → 92

X + 1 → 93

X + 2 → 94

Therefore, our three consecutive integers are 92, 93, and 94.

Answer:

92, 93, 94

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose,

Three consecutive integers would be x, (x+1), (x+2)

so,

x + (x+1) +  (x+2) = 279

⇒ x+x+1+x+2= 279

⇒3x+3 = 279

subtract 3 from both sides

⇒3x = 276  

divide both sides by 3

⇒x =276/3

∴x = 92

so,

The integers are-

  • x=92
  • x+1 =92+1 =93
  • x+2 = 92+1=94

What is the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the values? Round to the nearest tenth. 1,9,4,12,13,13
tankabanditka [31]

To compute the mean, you simply have to sum all the elments in the data set and the divide the sum by the number of elements:


M = \frac{1+4+9+12+13+13}{6} = \frac{52}{6} = 8.6


To compute the variance, we first need to compute the distance of each element from the mean. To do so, we build a "parallel" dataset, given by the difference of every value and the mean:


D' = 1-8.6,9-8.6,4-8.6,12-8.6,13-8.6,13-8.6


D' = -7.6, 0.4, -4.6, 3.4, 4.4, 4.4


Now we need those difference squared:


(D')^2 = 57.76, 0.16, 21.16, 11.56, 19.36, 19.36


The variance is the mean of this new vector, so


\sigma^2 = \frac{57.76+ 0.16+ 21.16+ 11.56+ 19.36+ 19.36}{6} = \frac{129.36}{6} = 21.6


Finally, the standard deviation is simply the square root of the variance, so you have


\sigma = \sqrt{21.6} = 4.6

A number cube with faces labeled 1 to 6 is rolled once.
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

a)  A ∪ B = {2, 4, 5, 6}

b)  A ∩ B = {6}

c)  \sf B^c = {1, 3, 5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Set notation is used in math to list numbers, objects or outcomes.

It uses <u>curly brackets</u> called "braces". Objects placed within the braces are the elements of the set.

The listing method of <u>set notation</u> simply lists the numbers in the set.

The three dots "..." means it is infinite (goes on forever).

Given:

  • A number cube with faces labeled 1 to 6.

Therefore the set of all possible outcomes is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

<u>Event A</u>

The number rolled is <u>greater than 4</u>.

Therefore, the set of outcomes for event A is {5, 6}.

<u>Event B</u>

The number rolled is <u>even</u>.

Therefore, the set of outcomes for event B is {2, 4, 6}.

<u>Part (a)</u>
Event "A or B" means the outcomes in A or B or both.

⇒ A ∪ B = {2, 4, 5, 6}

<u>Part (b)</u>

Event "A and B" means the outcomes in both A and B.

⇒  A ∩ B = {6}

<u>Part (c)</u>

The complement of event B means everything that is not in B.

\sf \implies B^c =<em> </em>{1, 3, 5}
