\dfrac{1}{2}n(n+1)=1081\qquad|\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\\\n(n+1)=2162\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\(n)(n)+(n)(1)=2162\qquad|\text{subtract 2162 from both sides}\\\\n^2+n-2162=0\\\\n^2+47n-46n-(46)(47)=0\\\\n(n+47)-46(n+47)=0\\\\(n+47)(n-46)=0\iff n+47=0\ \vee\ n-46=0\\\\n=-47\notin\mathbb{N}\ \vee\  n=46\\\\Answer:\ 46\ integers.

What is -0.6(r+0.2) = 1.8 ???
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

r = -3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.6(r+0.2) = 1.8

Divide by -.6

-0.6/-.6(r+0.2) = 1.8/-.6

r+.2 = -3

Subtract .2 from each side

r+.2-.2 = -3-.2

r = -3.2

What is the elapsed time from 6:45 am to 3:28 pm
Genrish500 [490]


6:45a to 7:45  = 1 hour

7:45 to 8:45  = 2 hours

8:45 to 9:45  = 3 hours

9:45 to 10:45 =  4 hours

10:45 to 11:45  = 5 hours

11:45 to 12:45  = 6 hours

12:45 to 1:45  =  7 hours

1:45 to 2:45  = 8 hours

2:45 to 3:00  = 8 hours and 15 minutes

then just add the 28 minutes to the 15 minutes

28 + 15 = 43

6:45a to 3:28p = 8 hours and 43 minutes.

Hope this helps.

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Type II error

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the definition of type II error, the type II error arises when we wrongfully accept the null hypothesis. It means that when we accept our null hypothesis and null hypothesis is not correct then type II error arises. So according to situation we are accepting the null hypothesis that the food is safe but it is actually not safe. Hence the given situation represents type II error.
