A store sells cards on each of which there are drawing of different flowers: either roses, either daisies, either tulips, either
valkas [14]

The greatest number of different cards based on the permutations is 144.

<h3>How to compute the value?</h3>

From the information given, there are 4 versions which are either roses, daisies, tulips, or sunflowers and this is further divided into either Happy birthday, anniversary, or holidays.

Therefore, the greatest number of different cards will be:

= 4! × 3!

= 24 × 6

= 144

A die was rolled eight times. The rolls were 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, and 6. What is the mean absolute deviation for this data? A) 1
adoni [48]

Answer:

The correct option is A:

MAD = 1 + 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

For a set of N elements {x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ}

The mean is calculated as:

M = \frac{x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n}{N}

And the mean absolute deviation is calculated as:

MAD = \frac{Ix_1 - MI + Ix_2 - MI + ...+ IX_n - MI}{N}

Here we have the set of 8 elements:

{ 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6}

The mean of this set is:

M = (2 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 6)/8 = 4

Then the mean standard deviation is:

MAD = \frac{I2 - 4I + I2 - 4I + I3 - 4I + I4 - 4I + I4 - 4I + I5 - 4I + I6 - 4I + I6 - 4I}{8} = 10/8

If we simplify this, we get:

MAD = 10/8 = 5/4  = (4 + 1)/4 = 4/4 + 1/4 = 1 + 1/4

MAD = 1 + 1/4

The correct option is A.

The ratio of x to y is 1/2 . If the ratio of x + 2 to y + 1 is 2/3 , then what is the value of x?​
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

x =4

Step-by-step explanation:

x/y = 1/2

(x + 2) / (y + 1) = 2/3

Cross multiply the first equation

2x = y

Put that value for y into the second equation.

(x + 2) / (2x + 1) = 2/3              Cross multiply

3(x + 2) = 2(2x + 1)                   Remove the brackets.

3x + 6 = 4x + 2                        Subtract 3x from both sides

6 = 4x - 3x + 2

6 = x + 2                                  Subtract 2 from both sides

6-2 = x

x = 4
