The sum of two numbers is 240. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller. Find the numbers.
----------
Let the smaller be "x" ; Larger is "2x-6"
EQUATION:

x + 2x-6 = 240

3x= 246

x = 82 (smaller)
<span>
2x-6 = 158 (larger)</span>

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

a) 15.579

b) 39.019

Step-by-step explanation:

a) For the top 2% the z-value from the z table

z = 2.054

thus,

z = \frac{\textup{X-Mean}}{\sigma}

here

X = 132

Mean = 100

thus,

2.054 = \frac{\textup{132-100}}{\sigma}

or

σ = 15.579

b) Using tables, we get for Z = 0.89 the value of 0.8133 and for Z= 0.90 the value of 0.8159

By interpolation, values for 0.815 and we get Z=0.897

thus,

z = \frac{\textup{X-Mean}}{\sigma}

here

X = 220

Mean = 185

thus,

0.897 = \frac{\textup{220-185}}{\sigma}

or

σ = 39.019

Answer:

Mia is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see this if you write 5/11 in a calculator, you get 0.454545454545 infinitely. In other cases, you would write it like Malik said if the answer were to be 0.455555555, but it isn't.
