It takes the son one and half hours to clean the house. To find this you need the equations F+S=2 and F+1=S. (F=father and S=son) You take the F+1 and substitute it in for S in F+S to get F+(F+1)=2. Then you combined like factors, 2F+1=2, and simplify to get F=.5hr. After this you plug .5 in to F+1=S to get (.5)+1=S, meaning it takes the son 1.5 hour to clean the house.

Answer:

x = -1, x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the equation. (It's a difference of squares, so we know the form will be (a-b)(a+b).)

y = x^{2} - 1\\y = (x-1)(x+1)

Test this by FOILing it out, if you're unsure. This is something it can be good to memorize!

Set it equal to 0.

0 = (x+1)(x-1)

Separate the two parenthetical expressions by the Zero Product Property.

0 = x+1\\0 = x-1

Solve for x!

x=-1, x=1

Stels [109]

Answer:

The appropriate response is "0.9476".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Standard deviation,

\sigma=1150

Randomly selected railroad-car shipments,

n = 500

As we know,

⇒ \sigma \bar{x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }

On substituting the values, we get

⇒      =\frac{1150}{\sqrt{500} }

then,

⇒      =P(-1.94

⇒      =P(Z

On using the table of P, we get

⇒      =0.9738 - 0.0262

⇒      =0.9476
