The number of adults = 41

The number of children = 97

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adults and

y be the number of children

then according to the given conditions

x+y = 138\ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\11x+4y = 839\ \ \ Eqn\ 2

From equation 1:

x = 138-y

Putting in equation 2

11(138-y)+4y = 839\\1518-11y+4y = 839\\1518 -7y = 839\\-7y = 839-1518\\-7y = -679\\

Dividing both sides by -7

\frac{-7y}{-7} = \frac{-679}{-7}\\y = 97

Putting y = 97 in equation 1

x+ 97 = 138\\x = 138-97\\x = 41

Hence,

The number of adults = 41

The number of children = 97

A person must score in the upper 8% of the population on an IQ test to qualify for membership in MENSA, the international high-I
Cloud [144]

Answer:

A person must get an IQ score of at least 138.885 to qualify.

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 = 115, \sigma = 17

(a). [7pts] What IQ score must a person get to qualify

Top 8%, so at least the 100-8 = 92th percentile.

Scores of X and higher, in which X is found when Z has a pvalue of 0.92. So X when Z = 1.405.

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

1.405 = \frac{X - 115}{17}

X - 115 = 17*1.405

X = 138.885

A person must get an IQ score of at least 138.885 to qualify.

Classify the triangle with 9, 15, 19 as an acute right obtuse or not a triangle
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Hence the correct option is the last one . The triangle is an obtuse angled triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the sum of any two sides added together is greater than the third side hence this is a triangle.

ii) it is<em><u> not</u></em> a right angled triangle as \sqrt{9^{2} + 15^{2} } \neq  19 and \sqrt{9^{2} + 15^{2} } <  19

iii) the triangle is not acute from ii) above

iv) the triangle is an obtuse triangle from ii) above.
