Answer:

\huge\boxed{\$6\dfrac{2}{3}\approx\$6.67}

Step-by-step explanation:

\bold{METHOD\ 1:}\\\\\begin{array}{ccc}12&-&\$4.00\\\\20&-&\$x\end{array}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\12x=(20)(4)\\\\12x=80\qquad\text{divide both sides by 12}\\\\x=\dfrac{80}{12}\\\\x=\dfrac{20}{3}\\\\x=6\dfrac{2}{3}\Rightarrow x\approx6.67

\bold{METHOD\ 2:}\\\\12\ \text{pencils cost}\ \$4.00.\\\\1\ \text{pencil cost}\ \$4.00:12=\$\dfrac{4}{12}=\$\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\20\ \text{pencils cost}\ \$\dfrac{1}{3}\times20=\$\dfrac{20}{3}=\$6\dfrac{2}{3}\approx\$6.67

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! Find the fifth roots of 243(cos 240° + i sin 240°).
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

<h2>3(cos 336 + i sin 336)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Fifth root of 243 = 3,

Suppose r( cos Ф + i sinФ) is the fifth root of 243(cos 240 + i sin 240),

then r^5( cos  Ф  + i sin  Ф )^5 = 243(cos 240 + i sin 240).

Equating equal parts and using de Moivre's theorem:

r^5 =243  and  cos  5Ф  + i sin  5Ф = cos 240 + i sin 240

r = 3 and  5Ф = 240 +360p so Ф =  48 + 72p

So Ф = 48, 120, 192, 264, 336  for   48 ≤ Ф < 360

So there are 5 distinct solutions given by:

3(cos 48 + i sin 48),

3(cos 120 + i sin 120),

3(cos 192 + i sin 192),

3(cos 264 + i sin 264),

3(cos 336 + i sin 336)

The standard deviation of a sample taken from population A is 17.6 for a sample of 25.
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The standard deviation of the sample mean differences is _5.23_

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample of a population A and a sample of a population B.

For the sample of population A, the standard deviation \sigma_A is

\sigma_A = 17.6

The sample size n_A is:

n_A = 25.

For the sample of population B, the standard deviation \sigma_B is

\sigma_B = 21.2

The sample size n_B is:

n_B = 30.

Then the standard deviation for the difference of means has the following form:

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{\sigma_A^2}{n_A}+\frac{\sigma_B^2}{n_B}}

Finally

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{17.6^2}{25}+\frac{21.2^2}{30}}\\\\\sigma= 5.23
