Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
11
Discussion:
Let "n" be the smaller number. Then
n * (n+5) = 176.
My first reaction to this problem was to factor 176 in my head. That's 176 = 16 * 11 and 16 is 5 more than 11. So that's the solution!.... Now let's solve it using the brute force approach:
n(n+5) = 176 =>
n^2 + 5n - 176 = 0 => use the quadratic formula
n = ( -5 +\- sqrt( 5^2 - 4(1)(-176)) ) /2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt( 25 + 704) )/ 2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt (729) ) /2 => as sqrt(729) = 27
= (-5 +\- 27) / 2 =>
= (-5 + 27)/2 or ( -5 -27)/2 =>
= 22/2 or -32/2 =>
= 11 or -16
But -16 is not allowed as the question wants a positive value.
Thank you,
MrB

Answer:
290
Step-by-step explanation:
First, add two digit number from them.
50 + 30 = 80
Second, add the last two numbers.
6 + 4 = 10
So, add these two results.
80 + 10 = 90
Final, all of theses results are added to three digit number of second number.
So, final result is
200 + 90 = 290

Answer:
The probability that a randomly chosen tree is greater than 140 inches is 0.0228.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Cherry trees in a certain orchard have heights that are normally distributed with
inches and
inches.
To find : What is the probability that a randomly chosen tree is greater than 140 inches?
Solution :
Mean -
inches
Standard deviation -
inches
The z-score formula is given by, 
Now,





The Z-score value we get is from the Z-table,


Therefore, the probability that a randomly chosen tree is greater than 140 inches is 0.0228.
