The sum of two consecutive positive integers is 71 find the two positive integers

Mathematics

Veronika [31]3 years ago

Let the first number be x. The next number will be x+1 since the two numbers are consecutive.

So, the equation is x + x+1 = 71

2x+1 = 71

2x = 70

x = 35

So, the first number is 35.

To find the next number, add 1 to 35.

So, the answers are 35 and 36.

I'm not 100% sure if I am right, but for number 9 you would pick two points on , let's just say you pick points (0, 1) and (2, -2). Then you would find those points in the table. So in this case the answer would be D. And I'm not really sure how to explain #10 but you basically work out each problem with the graph to see if it makes sense. For example if you try working out problem F it wouldn't make sense since you start of with 10 dollars and earn 2 each day. But on the graph it shows that you are loosing two. Sorry if I didn't explain it right, if you have more questions let me know!

Two random samples are taken, with each group asked if they support a particular candidate. A summary of the sample sizes and pr
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

And we got \alpha/2 =0.01 so then the value for \alpha=0.02 and then the confidence level is given by: Conf=1-0.02=0.98[/tex[ or 98%Step-by-step explanation:A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  [tex]p_1 represent the real population proportion for 1

\hat p_1 =0.768 represent the estimated proportion for 1

n_1=92 is the sample size required for 1

p_2 represent the real population proportion for 2

\hat p_2 =0.646 represent the estimated proportion for 2

n_2=95 is the sample size required for 2

z represent the critical value for the margin of error  

The population proportion have the following distribution  

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})  

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula  

(\hat p_1 -\hat p_2) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat p_2 (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}  

For this case we have the confidence interval given by: (-0.0313,0.2753). From this we can find the margin of erro on this way:

ME= \frac{0.2753-(-0.0313)}{2}=0.1533

And we know that the margin of erro is given by:

ME=z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat p_2 (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}

We have all the values except the value for z_{\alpha/2}

So we can find it like this:

0.1533=z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{0.768(1-0.768)}{92} +\frac{0.646 (1-0.646)}{95}}

And solving for z_{\alpha/2} we got:

z_{\alpha/2}=2.326

And we can find the value for \alpha/2 with the following excel code:

"=1-NORM.DIST(2.326,0,1,TRUE)"

And we got \alpha/2 =0.01 so then the value for \alpha=0.02 and then the confidence level is given by: Conf=1-0.02=0.98 or 98%

Two cards are selected from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. The first card is not replaced before the second card is select
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Probability is:   $ \frac{\textbf{13}}{\textbf{51}} $

Step-by-step explanation:

From a deck of 52 cards there are 26 black cards. (Spades and Clubs).

Also, there are 26 red cards. (Hearts and Diamonds).

First, we determine the probability of drawing a black card.

P(drawing a black card) = $ \frac{number \hspace{1mm} of  \hspace{1mm} black  \hspace{1mm} cards}{total  \hspace{1mm} number  \hspace{1mm} of  \hspace{1mm} cards} $  $ = \frac{26}{52} = \frac{\textbf{1}}{\textbf{2}} $

Now, since we don't replace the drawn card, there are only 51 cards.

But the number of red cards is still 26,

∴ P(drawing a red card) = $ \frac{number  \hspace{1mm} of  \hspace{1mm} red  \hspace{1mm} cards}{total  \hspace{1mm} number  \hspace{1mm}of  \hspace{1mm} cards} $  $ = \frac{26}{51}  $

Now, the probability of both black and red card = $ \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{26}{51} $

$ = \frac{\textbf{13}}{\textbf{51}} $

Hence, the answer.
