Answer:
smallest number=626
middle number=628
larger number=630
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the numbers, let's use n as the variable. Since we know that the numbers are consecutive even numbers, we know that they increase by 2. For example, we could have 2+4+6=12.
Knowing that the consecutive numbers increase by two's, we can use this.
smallest number: n
middle number: n+2
larger number: n+4
All we have to do is add these together and set it equal to 1884.
n+(n+2)+(n+4)=1884 [combine like terms]
3n+6=1884 [subtract both sides by 6]
3n=1878 [divide both sides by 3]
n=626
Now that we know n=626, we also know that the other numbers are 626, 628, 630 respectively.
Set up a system of equations:
2x+3y=6
x-3y=9
You can solve this with elimination by adding the two equations together:
3x+0y = 15
3x=15
x=5
Then, plug this value back into either of the original equations to find the y value:
5-3y=9
-3y=4
y= -4/3
The point of intersection is (5,-4/3)
Answer:
0.1587
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Mean (m) of distribution = 64 inches
Standard deviation (sd) of distribution = 2 inches
Probability that a randomly selected woman is taller than 66 inches
For a normal distribution :
Z - score = (x - mean) / standard deviation
Where x = 66
P(X > 66) = P( Z > (66 - 64) / 2)
P(X > 66) = P(Z > (2 /2)
P(X > 66) = P(Z > 1)
P(Z > 1) = 1 - P(Z ≤ 1)
P(Z ≤ 1) = 0.8413 ( from z distribution table)
1 - P(Z ≤ 1) = 1 - 0.8413
= 0.1587
