Explanation:
This can be explained by thinking numbers on the number line as:
Lets take we have to multiply a positive number (say, 2) with a negative number say (-3)
<u>2×(-3)</u>
Suppose someone is standing at 0 on the number line and to go to cover -3 , the person moves 3 units in the left hand side. Since, we have to compute for 2×(-3), The person has to cover the same distance twice. At last, he will be standing at -6, which is a negative number.
A image is shown below to represent the same.
<u>Thus, a positive times a negative is a negative number.</u>
Answer:
Lower limit: 113.28
Upper limit: 126.72
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

Middle 60%
So it goes from X when Z has a pvalue of 0.5 - 0.6/2 = 0.2 to X when Z has a pvalue of 0.5 + 0.6/2 = 0.8
Lower limit
X when Z has a pvalue of 0.20. So X when 




Upper limit
X when Z has a pvalue of 0.80. So X when 




Answer:
145
Step-by-step explanation:
180-137=43
43+102=145
6,051m = 6,000m + 51m
1km=1,000 metres
--------------------------------
Therefore:
6,051 metres = 6,000/1,000km + 51/1,000km
=6,051/1,000km
=6.051km
