find 2 consecutive integers such that three times the square of the first is equal to seven more than five times the second

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for two numbers, $N$ and $N + 1$ . From the problem statement, we can setup the following equation:

$3N^{2} = 5(N + 1) + 7$

$3N^{2} = 5N + 5 + 7$

$3N^{2} - 5N - 12 = 0$

$(3N + 4)(N - 3)$

$N = \frac{-4}{3}, 3$

Because 3 is the only integer solution, the answer is 3 and 4.

An archaeologist at a dig sets up a coordinate system using string. Two similar artifacts are found one at position (1, 4) and t

myrzilka [38]

Given:

Positions of two artifacts are at points (1, 4) and (5, 2).

To find:

The distance between these two artifacts.

Solution:

Distance formula: The distance between two points is

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Using distance formula, the distance between two points (1, 4) and (5, 2) is

$d=\sqrt{(5-1)^2+(2-4)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{(4)^2+(-2)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{16+4}$

$d=\sqrt{20}$

$d=4.4721359$

Round to the nearest tenth of a unit.

$d\approx 4.5$

Therefore, the distance between two artifacts is 4.5 units.

Keenan scored 80 points on an exam that had a mean score of 77 points and a standard deviation of 4.9 points. Rachel scored 78 p

Artemon [7]

Answer:

Keenan's z-score was of 0.61.

Rachel's z-score was of 0.81.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Keenan scored 80 points on an exam that had a mean score of 77 points and a standard deviation of 4.9 points.

This means that $X = 80, \mu = 77, \sigma = 4.9$
