Y α xz

y = kxz y = 72, when x = 6, and z = 4

72 = k*6*4

72 = k*24

24k = 72

k = 72/24

k = 3.

<span>y = kxz
</span>
<span>y = 3xz </span>

Finding y, when x = 3, z = 5.

y = 3xz

y = 3*3*5

y = 45

Use the digits 2, 3, and 5 to create a fraction and a whole number with a product greater than 2

kupik [55]

The fractions which cannbe formed are: 2/3, 3/2, 2/5, 5/2, 3/5 and 5/3.
Now, we find the products with the third number:
2/3*5= 10/3 = 3.33 > 2
3/2*5 = 15 >2= 7.5 > 2
2/5*3= 6/5 (rejected)
5/2*3 = 15/2 > 2
3/5*2= 6/5 (rejected)
5/3*2 = 15/2 = 7.5> 2

The growth of 100 young trees near a river is given below. At most 50 yards from the river (Event Y) More than 50 yards from the

Alona [7]

Answer:

It is 91% more likely that the tree was atmost 500 yards from the river.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

We are given with distance and height of 100 young trees near a river.

From that table, in total there are 55 trees which grow more than 3 ft during the year.

And among those 55 trees, 50 trees are atmost 50 yards from river.

Hence it is ≈91% more likely that the tree was atmost 50 yards from the river.

Consider a sample with data values of 27, 24, 21, 16, 30, 33, 28, and 24. Compute the 20th, 25th, 65th, and 75th percentiles. 20

densk [106]

Answer:

$P_{20} = 20$ --- 20th percentile

$P_{25} = 21.75$ --- 25th percentile

$P_{65} = 27.85$ --- 65th percentile

$P_{75} = 29.5$ --- 75th percentile

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

27, 24, 21, 16, 30, 33, 28, and 24.

N = 8

First, arrange the data in ascending order:

Arranged data: 16, 21, 24, 24, 27, 28, 30, 33

Solving (a): The 20th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{20} = \frac{20 * 9}{100}$

$P_{20} = \frac{180}{100}$

$P_{20} = 1.8th\ item$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{20} = 1st\ Item +0.8(2nd\ Item - 1st\ Item)$

$P_{20} = 16 + 0.8*(21 - 16)$

$P_{20} = 16 + 0.8*5$

$P_{20} = 16 + 4$

$P_{20} = 20$

Solving (b): The 25th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{25} = \frac{25 * 9}{100}$

$P_{25} = \frac{225}{100}$

$P_{25} = 2.25\ th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{25} = 2nd\ item + 0.25(3rd\ item-2nd\ item)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.25(24-21)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.25(3)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.75$

$P_{25} = 21.75$

Solving (c): The 65th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{65} = \frac{65 * 9}{100}$

$P_{65} = \frac{585}{100}$

$P_{65} = 5.85\th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{65} = 5th + 0.85(6th - 5th)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85(28 - 27)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85(1)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85$

$P_{65} = 27.85$

Solving (d): The 75th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{75} = \frac{75 * 9}{100}$

$P_{75} = \frac{675}{100}$

$P_{75} = 6.75th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{75} = 6th + 0.75(7th - 6th)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 0.75(30- 28)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 0.75(2)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 1.5$

$P_{75} = 29.5$

A segment with endpoints A(2,6) and C(5,9) is partitioned by a point B such that AB and BC form a 3:1 ratio. Find B

Aneli [31]

Answer:

The coordinate of point B is (4, 8.25)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the coordinates of point B

To do this, we are to use the section internal division formula as follows;

(x,y) = (nx1 + mx2)/(m + n) , (ny1 + my2)/(m + n)

In this case;

(x1,y1) = (2,6)

(x2,y2) = (5,9)

(m,n) = (3,1)

Substituting these values into the section formula, we have;

(x,y) = (1(1) + 3(5))/(1 + 3) , (1(6) + 3(9))/3 + 1)

(x,y) = (16/4, 33/4)

(x,y) = (4,8.25)
