Answer:

<em>Cathy was born in 1980 and she was 18 years old in 1998</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

This is a special type of equations where all the unknowns must be integers and limited to a range [0,9] because they are the digits of a number.

Let's say Cathy was born in the year x formed by the ordered digits abcd. A number expressed by its digits can be calculated as

x=1000a+100b+10c+d

In 1998, Cathy's age was

1998-(1000a+100b+10c+d)

And it must be equal to the sum of the four digits

1998-(1000a+100b+10c+d)=a+b+c+d

Rearranging

1998=1001a+101b+11c+2d

We are sure a=1, b=9 because Cathy's age is limited to having been born in the same century and millennium. Thus

1998=1001+909+11c+2d

Operating

88=11c+2d

If now we try some values for c we notice there is only one possible valid combination, since c and d must be integers in the range [0,9]

c=8, d=0

Thus, Cathy was born in 1980 and she was 18 years old in 1998. Note that 1+9+8+0=18

➷ Standard deviation = \sqrt{(n*p)(1 - p)}

Substitute the values in:

\sqrt{(500 *0.84)(1-0.84)} = 8.1975...

This can be rounded to give an approximate answer of 8.2

The answer is option A.

ki77a [65]

Answer:

  • draw lines center to vertex
  • 43.5 square inches
  • 261 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A</u>:

The area can be decomposed into triangles by drawing a line from the center to each vertex of the hexagon.

__

<u>Part B</u>:

The area of each triangle is given by the triangle area formula:

  A = (1/2)bh

  A = (1/2)(10 in)(8.7 in) = 43.5 in²

__

<u>Part C</u>:

The area of the table top is 6 times the area of one triangle:

  surface area = 6(43.5 in²) = 261 in²
