The sum of two numbers is odd. Can the quotient of the two numbers be an odd number?

Mathematics

Answer: No.

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess that here we have the statement:

If the sum of two numbers is odd----> can their quotient be an odd number?

first, for n an integer number, we have that:

an odd number can be written as 2n + 1

an even number can be written as 2n.

The sum of two numbers is only odd if one of them is odd and the other even.

Then we have a number that is 2n and other that is 2k + 1, for n and k integer numbers.

Now, let's see if the quotient can also be an odd number.

One way to think this is:

There is an odd number such that when we multiply it by another odd number, the result is an even number?

no, and i can prove it as:

let 2k + 1 be an odd number, and 2j + 1 other.

the product is:

(2k + 1)*(2j + 1) = 2*(2*k*j + k + j) + 1

and as k and j are integers, also does 2*k*j + k + j, so:

2*(2*k*j + k + j) + 1 is an odd number.

This says that the product of two odd numbers is always odd, then we never can have that the quotient between an even number and an odd number is odd.

Triangle XYZ is obtuse which list could represent the angle measures of triangle XYZ?
asambeis [7]
An obtuse triangle must have an angle greater than 90degrees (cannot equal 90). Therefore, A. would be the correct answer. This is because A. is the only set of angles that includes an angle greater than 90. Also, all angle measures add up to equal 180degrees.

I rlly need help with this :(

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) The pilot is at the 72th percentile.

b) 19.13% of pilots are unable to fly.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
  • Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

\mu = 72.6, \sigma = 2.7.

Item a:

The percentile is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 74.2</u>, hence:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{74.2 - 72.6}{2.7}

Z = 0.59

Z = 0.59 has a p-value of 0.7224.

72th percentile.

Item b:

The proportion that is able to fly is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 78 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 70</u>, hence:

X = 78:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{78 - 72.6}{2.7}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a p-value of 0.9772.

X = 70:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{70 - 72.6}{2.7}

Z = -0.96

Z = -0.96 has a p-value of 0.1685.

0.9772 - 0.1685 = 0.8087 = 80.87%.

Hence the percentage that is unable to fly is:

100 - 80.87 = 19.13%.

What's the percent change of 36;63
Bad White [126]


The percent change from 36 to 63 is 63/36=1.75 (multiply by 100 to get a percentage) 175%

The percent change from 63 to 36 is 36/63=0.571=57.1%
