Answer:

The combination is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 people in a raffle drawing. two raffle winners each wing gift cards . each gift card is the same.

Lets call the winners Winner 1, Winner 2. According to the given statement each gift card is same, thus any permutation of these two winners are  equivalent.This tells us that the order of winners does not matter and the situation involves a combination.

Now we have to calculate the combination of 2 winners from 6 people.

nCm = m!/n!(m-n)!

where m = 6

n = 2

2C6 = 6!/2!(6-2)!

2C6 = 6!/2!(4)!

2C6 = 6*5*4*3*2*1/2*1*4*3*2*1

2C6= 6*5/2*1

2C6=30/2

2C6 = 15

Thus the combination is 15....

x = length of fourth side in quadrilateral ABCD

Have a look at the attached image I've posted. I made a chart that lines up the side lengths from largest to smallest. Note how the first two items in the bottom row are blank. We don't know these values and we don't need to find out in order to find x.

Based on the last two columns of that table, we can form the proportion below, which is then used to isolate x.

30/12 = x/6

30*6 = 12*x ... cross multiply

180 = 12*x

12*x = 180

x = 180/12 ... divide both sides by 12

x = 15

The operating costs for each machine for one day have an unknown distribution with mean 1610 and standard deviation 136 dollars.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

20.27

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Using the Central Limit Theorem for Means, what is the standard deviation for the sample mean distribution?

This is s when \sigma = 136, n = 45. So

s = \frac{136}{\sqrt{45}} = 20.27

So the correct answer is:

20.27
