We can solve this by finding one of the numbers first
Let the smaller number be y.
Since these 2 numbers are consecutive odd numbers, the larger number should be 2 more than the smaller one (y+2).
Therefore,
y + (y+2) = 284
2y +2 = 284
shift +2 to the other side and turn it into -2
2y = 284 - 2
2y = 282
shift x2 to the other side and turn it into /2
y = 282/2
y = 141
Now we got the smaller number, which is 141, we can also find the larger number by adding 2 to it. 141+2 = 143,
Therefore, your answer is 141 and 143
Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
15% of 15.95 is 2.39, which if we subtract from 15.95 we get 13.56

To know if p = -1 is a possible solution to <span>6(p – 4) = -30p, plug in -1 for p and see if the equation is true.
</span><span>6(p – 4) = -30p
</span><span>6(-1 – 4) = -30(-1)
</span>6(-1 – 4) = -30(-1)<span>
Solve the parentheses.
-1 - 4 = -5
</span>6(-5) = -30(-1)
Multiply.
6 • -5 = -30
-30 • -1 = 30
-30 = 30
This is not true, so p = -1 is NOT a possible solution for the <span>equation 6(p – 4) = -30p.
Hope this helps!</span>
Answer:
The margin of error at 90% confidence is 0.5133 gram.
Step-by-step explanation:
Margin of error (E) = (critical value × sample standard deviation) ÷ sqrt(n)
sample standard deviation = 1.5 grams
confidence level = 90% = 0.9
significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1 = 10%
n (sample size) = 25
degree of freedom = n - 1 = 25 - 1 = 24
critical value (t) corresponding to 24 degrees of freedom and 10% significance level is 1.711
E = (1.711×1.5) ÷ sqrt(25) = 2.5665 ÷ 5 = 0.5133 gram
