How do you identify the necessary information that is missing from a problem?

Mathematics

Answer:

  It depends

Step-by-step explanation:

Identifying what is <em>not there</em> is always difficult. In the general case, the range of possibilities is infinite.

For relatively simple math problems, the problem statement usually gives a context and asks a question. The context will generally tell you the nature of the relationships that apply. The question will generally be answered by making use of the relationships to relate given information to requested information.

If a relationship involves 4 items, one is "unknown" (that you're asked to find), and only 2 are given, then you know the missing information is the remaining item in the relationship.

Often, you can work a problem a number of ways, so the information that is missing depends on the method you choose for working the problem.

___

In complicated multi-step problems, relationships may need to be developed, theorems proved, massive amounts of data examined, and more. In some cases, whole new areas of mathematics may need to be invented.

At a local restaurant, the amount of time that customers have to wait for their food is normally distributed with a mean of 18 m
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

99.7% of customers have to wait between 8 minutes to 30 minutes for their food.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Mean, μ = 18 minutes

Standard Deviation, σ = 4 minutes

We are given that the distribution of amount of time is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Empirical Formula:

  • Almost all the data lies within three standard deviation from the mean for a normally distributed data.
  • About 68% of data lies within one standard deviation from the mean.
  • About 95% of data lies within two standard deviations of the mean.
  • About 99.7% of data lies within three standard deviation of the mean.

Thus, 99.7% of the customers have to wait:

\mu -3\sigma = 18-3(4) = 6\\\mu +3\sigma = 18+3(4) = 30

Thus, 99.7% of customers have to wait between 8 minutes to 30 minutes for their food.

13,22,31,...<br> Find the 31st term.<br> Find the 31st term.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer: 283

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, it is helpful to get an equation you can use to solve any term.

This equation is:

13 + 9(n-1)

So simply plug in 31 for n to get

13+9(31-1)

=13+270

=283
