Answer:

a) 18 cm

b) 18

c) 3

The Earl's height is unusual because the  z score does not lies in the given range of usual i.e -2 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean height, μ = 174 cm

Standard deviation = 6 cm

height of Earl, x = 192 cm

a) The positive difference between Earl height and the mean = x - μ

= 192 - 174 = 18 cm

b) standard deviations is 18

c) Now,

the z score is calculated as:

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

or

z=\frac{192-174}{6}

or

z = 3

The Earl's height is unusual because the  z score does not lies in the given range of usual i.e -2 and 2

Find the point of intersection (if any) of the following pairs of lines: a) x – 2y +1=0 2x + 3y – 7 = 0 b) x-2y+11=0 -x+2y-13 =
pychu [463]

Answer:

a) (11/7, 9/7)

b) There's no point of intersection

Step-by-step explanation:

a) x - 2y + 1 = 0

2x + 3y - 7 = 0

To find the point of intersection, we need to solve the system of equations  and the result will be the point of intersection (x,y)

x-2y+1=0\\x= 2y-1

Now we substitute x in the second equation:

2x+3y-7=0\\2(2y-1)+3y-7=0\\4y-2+3y-7=0\\7y-9=0\\y=9/7

Now we substitute y in our first equation.

x-2y+1=0\\x-2(9/7)+1=0\\x-18/7+1=0\\x=18/7-1\\x=11/7.

The point of intersection is (11/7, 9/7)

b) x -2y +11 =0

-x + 2y - 13 =0

We are going to follow the same procedure:

x-2y+11=0\\x=2y-11

-(2y-11)+2y-13=0\\-2y+11+2y-13=0\\0y=2\\0=2

Since this system of equations doesn't have a solution, the system has no point of intersection.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

this question is basically asking you to find the HCF of 30 and 36

step 1 : draw prime factor tree diagrams and write the numbers out as the product if their prime factors

step 2: multiply the prime factors they have in common

30 = 2 x 3 x 5

36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

HCF = 2 x 3 = 6
