Answer:

The two numbers are ;

<h2>x = 25</h2><h2>y = 5</h2><h3>I Hope It Helps :)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let -the -unknown- numbers-be-x-and-y\\x-y =20    (1)\\xy = 125   (2)\\On -equation (1) make-x -the- subject-of-the-formula\\x  = 20+y\\Substitute, 20+y in- equation- for x\\y(20+y)=125\\20y +y^{2} =125\\Arrange-in-general-form-of-a-quadratic-equation=\\ax^{2} +bx +c =0\\y^{2} +20y-125=0\\Using -factorization -method\\Find-two-factors- when - added- give +20 and -when- multiplied give-125\\Factors=+25y and  -5y\\y^{2} +25y-5y-125=0\\factorize- y -out \\y(y+25)-5(y+25)=0\\(y+25)(y-5)=0\\

(y+25)=0- or -(y-5)=0\\y = 0-25  -or- y = 0+5\\y = -25 , y= 5\\ y- cannot -have- a- negative- value \\y = 5\\substitute 5 for y in equation (1) -or-(2)\\x-y = 20    (10\\x-5 = 20 \\x = 20 +5\\x = 25

Answer:

ans= 25, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Guess a number that you can the difference as 20 and when you multiply you get 125. For imstance in my case the difference between 25 and 5 is 20 and their product is 125

125 pounds decreased by 4% what is the new amount
Anvisha [2.4K]

You want 125 pounds minus 4% of it, so you want 96% just multiply it

125 . 96% = 125 . 96/100 = 120

A simple random sample of size nequals40 is drawn from a population. The sample mean is found to be 103.9​, and the sample stand
yan [13]

Answer:

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the population mean is greater than 100

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>: We state the hypothesis and identify the claim

H_0:\mu=100 and H_1:\mu \:>\:100 (claim)

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate the test value.

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }

\implies t=\frac{103.9-100}{\frac{21.9}{\sqrt{40} } }=1.1263

<u>Step 3</u>: Find the P-value. The p-value obtained from a calculator is using d.f=39 and test-value 1.126 is 0.134

<u>Step 4</u>: We fail to reject the null hypothesis since P-value  is greater that the alpha level. (0.134>0.05).

<u>Step 5</u>: There is enough evidence to support the claim that the population mean is greater than 100.

<u>Alternatively</u>: We could also calculate the critical value to obtain +1.685 for \alpha=0.05 and d.f=39 and compare to the test-value:

The critical value (1.685>1.126) falls in the non-rejection region. See attachment.

NB: The t- distribution must be used because the population standard deviation is not known.
