Let n be the larger integer and n-2 be the smaller integer.
n² - (n - 2)²
= n² - (n - 2)(n - 2)
= n² - (n² - 4n - 4)
= n² - n² + 4n + 4
= 4n + 4
= 4(n + 1)
No matter what value n is, it will always be a multiple of 4.
None of the numbers are fractions or decimals.
The answer would be
D. natural numbers, whole numbers, and integers
Answer:
a: 0.8884
b: 0.9934
Step-by-step explanation:
We have µ = 300 and σ = 70. The sample size, n = 125.
For the sample to be within 8 units of the population mean, we would have sample values of 292 and 308, so we want to find:
P(292 < x < 308).
We need to find the z-scores that correspond to these values using the given data. See attached photo 1 for the calculation of these scores.
We have P(292 < x < 308) = 0.8884
Next we want the probability of the sample mean to be within 17 units of the population mean, so we want the values from 283 to 317. We want to find
P(283 < x < 317)
We need to find the z-scores that correspond to these values. See photo 2 for the calculation of these scores.
We have P(283 < x < 317) = 0.9934
3% interest on 5,000 = 150
275 (the total amount wanted) - 150 (from initial investment)= 125
x (5%) =125
x (0.05)= 125
x/0.05)= 125/0.05
x=2500
you need to invest 2500 at 5% to get the additional 125
125 plus 150= 275
