Find the greatest common factor of 24 and 76_______________________

2 answers:

4 0

Using Euclid's algorithm, divide 76 by 24. The result is 3 r 4. Now, divide 24 by the remainder. That result is 6 r 0. Since the remainder is zero, the divisor (4) is the greatest common factor of 76 and 24.

The GCF of 76 and 24 is 4.

_____

Another way to look at it is to factor the two numbers and see what factors they have in common.

76 = 4·19

24 = 4·6

since 6 an 19 have no common factors, 4 is the greatest common factor of 76 and 24.

The greatest common factor(GCF) of 24 and 76 is 4.

4 goes into 24 six times.

4 goes into 76 nineteen times.

Which is the highest factor that can go into the both of them.

Answer:

The teacher should set the score 7 as the lowest passing grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of correct guesses.

All the questions are of true-false format.

The probability of getting a correct answer is, p = 0.50.

The total number of questions is, n = 10.

The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 10 and p = 0.50.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)={10\chose x}0.50^{x}(1-0.50)^{10-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...$

Now the teaches chose the grading scheme such that the probability of passing a student who guesses on every question is less than 0.05.

Then the probability of failing such a students is at least 1 - 0.05 = 0.95.

Compute the probability distribution of X.

Consider the probability distribution attached below.

The value of x for which P (X ≤ x) is at least 0.95 is, x = 7.

So the teacher should set the score 7 as the lowest passing grade.

The value of a small airplane depreciates exponentially every year after it is purchased. The value, in thousands of dollars, a(

ratelena [41]

Using an exponential function, it is found that the number 131.5 represents the initial value of the plane, in thousands of dollars.

<h3>Exponential function:</h3>

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

$A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t$

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.

r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, the function for the value of the airplane after t years is given by:

$A(t) = 131.5(0.8)^t$

Hence A(0) = 131.5, which means that the number 131.5 represents the initial value of the plane, in thousands of dollars.
