The sum of 2 numbers is 9 and the difference is 5

Mathematics
2 answers:
KatRina [158]3 years ago

Answer:

THE TWO ARE NUMBERS ARE

2 AND 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Personally, I think one variable is easier, but I'll show you both.

1. ONE variable

"two numbers WHOSE SUM IS 9"

x = one number

9 - x = other number (since the sum of the two numbers is 9, and one of them is x, then the other number would be the remainder or the difference when x is subtracted from 9

"the difference is five"

(9 - x) - x = 5

9 - x - x = 5

9 - 2x = 5

Subtract 9 from both sides: -2x = -4

Divide both sides by -2: x = 2

One of the numbers is 2. Plug this into the expression for the other number to find the other number.

9 - x

9 - 2

7

***THEREFORE, THE NUMBERS ARE 2 AND 7.

2. TWO variables

x = one number

y = other number

"whose sum is 9"

x + y = 9

"and the difference is five"

x - y = 5

Solve as a system of equations by "adding" the two equations.

x + y = 9

+(x - y = 5)

-----------

2x + 0y = 14

2x = 14

x = 7

Plug this value for x into either of the two equations and solve for y to find the value of the other number.

x + y = 9

7 + y = 9

y = 2

***THEREFORE, THE NUMBERS ARE 2 AND 7

Answer:

The numbers are 2 and 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x and y are the 2 numbers:

x + y = 9

x - y = 5       Adding the 2 equations

2x + 0 = 14

x = 7.

Plug this into the first equation:

7 + y = 9

y = 2.

Landon invested $110 in an account paying an interest rate of 4.1% compounded
krok68 [10]

Answer:

the amount after 5 years using compound continuously is $135.03

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount after 5 years using compound continuously is as follows

= Principal × e^(rate × time period)

= $110 × e^(4.2% × 5)

= $110 × 1.227525065

= $135.03

Hence, the amount after 5 years using compound continuously is $135.03

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

A food processor packages orange juice in small jars. The weights of the filled jars are approximately normally distributed with
Ratling [72]

Answer:

P(X>10.983)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{10.983-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{10.983-10.5}{0.3})=P(z>1.61)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and with excel or the normal standard table:

P(z>1.61)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(10.5,0.3)  

Where \mu=10.5 and \sigma=0.3

We are interested on this probability

P(X>10.983)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>10.983)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{10.983-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{10.983-10.5}{0.3})=P(z>1.61)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and with excel or the normal standard table:

P(z>1.61)=1-P(z

Solve for a side in right triangles
elena55 [62]

Answer:

4.50 = ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 40 = ? / 7

Multiply each side by 7

7 sin 40 = ?

4.499513268 = ?

To the nearest hundredth

4.50 = ?

Values for the labor force participation rate of women​ (LFPR) are published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. A researche
Anna [14]

Answer:

(A) For this research we made use of the paired t test.

(B) For the t test, we conclude that in the null Hypothesis H₀, there was no difference between the average labor force participation rate for women between the years of 1968 and​ 1972 as against the alternate Hypothesis Hₐ.

From the output data we have, since the P value is 0.024 and  is lesser than the alpha value of 0.05, we will accept the alternate Hypothesis instead of the null Hypothesis.

Note:Kindly find an attached copy of the complete question below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

The U.S of Bureau of Labor Statistics have published Values for the labor force participation rate of women​ (LFPR).

We are more interested in if there was a difference between female participation 1968 and​ 1972, a rapid change in women.

so we will check values for 19 randomly selected cities for 1968 and​ 1972,

Now,

(a) Which of this test is most appropriate for this data

The test which will be more suitable for these data will be paired to test t.

Because the data is for labor force participation for two different years, we apply the t test. now that we are making a comparison of two different year times, we will apply the t test in this research.

In this case, the sample size for both the years evaluated should be same, since we need to pair each and all the data.

(b)By using the test you selected, explain your conclusion

Now, to test the data paired t test, we have already the null Hypothesis  H₀: In this case there  is no difference between the average labor force participation rate for women between the years of 1968 and​ 1972 as compared with the alternate Hypothesis Hₐ: there was a significant difference between the average labor force participation rate for women between the years of 1968 and​ 1972.

However, from the output, we have that the P value is 0.024 which is lower than the alpha value of 0.05.

In conclusion, the alternate Hypothesis accepted while the null Hypothesis is rejected.
