Convert the fraction 2/11 to a decimal using long division

Seven pieces of rope have an average (arithmetic mean) length of 68 centimeters and a median length of 84 centimeters. If the le

Answer:

The maximum possible length, in centimeters, of the longest piece of rope is 134 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the seven pieces be a,b,c,d,e,f,g

Average of 7 pieces of ropes =68

$Average = \frac{\text{Sum of all lengths}}{\text{No. of pieces}}$

$68= \frac{\text{Sum of all lengths}}{7}$

$68 \times 7 =\text{a+b+c+d+e+f+g}$

$476=\text{a+b+c+d+e+f+g}$ --A

We are given that the median length of a piece of rope is 84 centimeters.

We arrange the pieces in the ascending order

So, median will be the length of 4th piece

So, d = 84 cm

the length of piece a,b,c will be less than 84 and the value of e,f,g must be greater than or equal to 84

Let us suppose the length of a,b,c be x

Let us suppose the length of e,f be 84

The length of the longest piece of rope is 14 centimeters more than 4 times the length of the shortest piece of rope

So, g = 4x+14

Substitute the value in A

$476=x+x+x+84+84+84+4x+14$

$476=7x+266$

$\frac{476-266}{7}=x$

$30=x$

g = 4x+14=4(30)+14=134

Hence the maximum possible length, in centimeters, of the longest piece of rope is 134 cm

Which of the following statements is false?

kramer

Option D

The sum of two irrational numbers is always rational is false statement

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<h3><u>The sum of two rational numbers is always rational</u></h3>

"The sum of two rational numbers is rational."

So, adding two rationals is the same as adding two such fractions, which will result in another fraction of this same form since integers are closed under addition and multiplication. Thus, adding two rational numbers produces another rational number.

For example:

$\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{9}{20}$

rational number + rational number = rational number

Hence this statement is true

<h3><u>The product of a non zero rational number and an irrational number is always irrational</u></h3>

If you multiply any irrational number by the rational number zero, the result will be zero, which is rational.

Any other situation, however, of a rational times an irrational will be irrational.

A better statement would be: "The product of a non-zero rational number and an irrational number is irrational."

So this statement is correct

<h3><u>The product of two rational numbers is always rational</u></h3>

The product of two rational numbers is always rational.

A number is said to be a rational number if it is of the form p/q,where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0

Any integer is a rational number because it can be written in p/q form.

Hence it is clear that product of two rational numbers is always rational.

So this statement is correct

<h3><u>The sum of two irrational numbers is always rational</u></h3>

"The sum of two irrational numbers is SOMETIMES irrational."

The sum of two irrational numbers, in some cases, will be irrational. However, if the irrational parts of the numbers have a zero sum (cancel each other out), the sum will be rational.

Thus this statement is false

Answer:

The t distribution is used, because we have the standard deviation for the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

When to use the z or the t distribution?

When we have the standard deviation for the population, we use the z distribution.

When we have the standard deviation for the sample, we use the t distribution.

In this question:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t distribution is used.
