6 comes before 7 and after 5, so 6 would make the number 5 less than it and 7 would make it greater than 6

Because 6/8 means, dividing 6 by 8. If you divide 7 by 8 eight you will get a greater number then 6/8 because 7 is greater than 6. And if you divide 5 by 8 you will get a smaller number than 6/8 because 5 is less than 6. I hope its not confusing.

disa [49]

Answer:

First: 12 feet

Second: 11 feet

Third: 14 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the second side of the traingle be x

First side of the triangle= x+1

Third side of the triangle= x+3

x+x+1+x+3 = 37

3x+4 = 37

3x = 37-4

3x = 33

x = 11

First side of the triangle= (11)+1

= 12

Second side of the triangle= 11

Third side of the triangle= (11)+3

= 14

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

2.28%

Step-by-step explanation:

mean = 5 years = 60 months

standard deviation = 6 months

X = number of years the tires will last

P = probability of ...

z = z-score

6 years = 72 months

z = (# of months - mean) / standard deviation

z = (72 - 60)/6

z = 12/6

z = 2

P(X > 72) = 1 - P(X < 72)

= 1 - P(z < 2)    

(using a Standard Normal Probabilities Table we can see that P(z < 2) = .9772)

So:

= 1 - .9772

= 0.0228 OR 2.28%
