Use the expression the problem gave.  Let n equal the number of CDs Jim owns.  
n=# of CDs Jim owns
5 less means subtract
2 times means multiply let Marcus = number of Marcus's CDs
Marcus=5-2n

Answer:

2n -5 is the expression which represents the number of CDs Marcus has

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement: Jim has a number (n) of CDs in his collection.

⇒ Jim has a number of CDs in his collection = n

Also, it is given that Marcus has 5 less than 2 times the number of CDs Jim has.

"2 times the number of CDs Jim has" means 2n

"5 less than 2 times the number of CDs Jim has" means 2n -5

then;

Marcus has the number of CDs = 2n -5

Therefore, the expression which represents the number of CDs Marcus has ; 2n -5

Which best describes why these two figures are similar or not similar?
Marina86 [1]

A. They are not similar because their corresponding angles are not congruent.

Their angles are not the same.


The 1st triangle is a scalene triangle (a triangle that has 3 unequal sides and angles)

The 2nd triangle is an isosceles triangle (a triangle that has 2 congruent/equal sides and 2 congruent angles)

48 + 32 written as a product of two factors
masha68 [24]

Answer:

12x5 or 16x(3+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can factor out 16 and get 16x(3+2). Both are factors of 48+32 because 3+2 is 5 and if you do 32+48 you get 60 which can be factored by 5. Or you can add them first to get 60 and then factor out 12 to get 12x5. Hope this helps!

A random sample of house sizes in major city has a sample mean of x¯=1204.9 sq ft and sample standard deviation of s=124.6 sq ft
ki77a [65]

Answer:

About 95% of house sizes that lie between 955.7 and 1454.1 sq ft .

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the empirical rule  about 68% of the data is within one standard deviation of the mean; about 95% of the data is within two standard deviations of the mean ; about 99.7% of the data is within three standard deviations of the mean.

We have given:

Sample mean : x¯=1204.9 sq ft

Standard deviation: s=124.6 sq ft

To find the percentage of house sizes that lie between 955.7 and 1454.1 sqft.

We can write it as

955.7= 1204.9 - 249.2 = 1204.9 - 2(124.6)

and 1454.1  = 1204.9 + 249.2 = 1204.9 + 2(124.6)

Thus, 955.7 is 2 standard deviations left from the means and 1454.1 is 2 deviations right from the mean.

Then by empirical rule , about 95% of house sizes that lie between 955.7 and 1454.1 sq ft .
