A number is 1/7 of another number.the difference of the number is 18. find the numbers

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

u = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

to evaluate for the value of u we would simply open the bracket and then evaluate for the value of u by collecting the like terms together.

solution

3=7(4 - 2u)-6u

3 = 28- 14u - 6u

collect the like terms

3 + 14u + 6u = 28

20u = 28 - 3

20u = 25

divide both sides by the coefficient of u which is 20

20u/20 = 25/20

u = 5/4

Teach me how to add this problem

Arada [10]

start with the ones and every time it goes over ten take the first number and add it to the tens for example 1+8+4+8=21 take the one and put it in the one spot below. Then take the 2 and add it to the six in the tens spot so it would be Instead of 6+8+3+2 it would be 8+8+3+2 which would equal 21 then put the 1 u=in the ten spot below add the 2 to the hundreds spot making is 5+5+7=4=14 put the 4 Below and add the 1 the the thousands making it 3+4+5+1=13 put the one on the ten thousands and put the three below the whole problem would be 13,411.

A researcher is planning to compare the effects of two different types of lights on the growth of bean plants. She expects that

Answer:

The sample size is $n = 36$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample standard deviation is $s = 1.5$

The mean difference of the two groups is $\=x _ 1 - \=x_2 = 1$

The standard error is $SE = \frac{ \= x_1 - \= x_2}{4}$

=> $SE = \frac{1}{4}$

Let assume that the confidence level is 95% hence the level of significance is

$\alpha = (100-95)\%$

=> $\alpha = 0.05$

So the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ obtained from the normal distribution table is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96$

Generally the margin of error is mathematically evaluated as

$E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * SE$

$E = 1.96 * \frac{1}{4}$

$E = 0.49$

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

$n =[ \frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} * s^2}}{E}]^2$

=> $n = [\frac{1.96 * 1.5}{0.49} ]^2$

=> $n = 36$

If cosθ =1/3 , then sinθ = _____.

DedPeter [7]

We are given: cos theta = 1/3. Thus, adj side = 1 and hyp = 3. Using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the opposite side, represented by x.

1^2 + opp^2 = 3^2, or 1 + x^2 = 9, or x^2 = 8. Here, x could be either sqrt(8) or -sqrt(8): sqrt(8) if angle theta is in QI, and -sqrt(8) if in QIV.

Thus, the sine of angle theta could be either sqrt(8)/3 or -sqrt(8)/3.
