The answer is the option C and the option D, which are:

C. Double the number of pages in the book.

D. The age of my friend.

The explanation for this problem is shown below:

By definition, a variable is an unkown quantity. In the Option A the quantity is given: 60 seconds in a minute. In the option B you know the quantity too, which is 15 years old. But the option C and the option D does not give any quantity, you don't know the number of pages in the book or the age of the friend yet. Therefore, the answer is the options C and D.

Answer:

1. 4n^3

2. 4k^7

3. 3

4. -30x

5. -6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The prime factorization of 12 is 2 x 2 x 3 and the prime factorization of 16 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2. When you look at these two expressions you can see the common factors of these two numbers are 2 x 2, which is 4. Next, we look at the GCF of the N's which would be n^3 since n^5 has three N's in it. Therefore, we get 4n^3 when we multiply the two together.

2. The factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8. Out of these, 1, 2, and 4 are the only factors that 20 shares with it and 4 is the greatest. Then, we look at the K's and the GCF of the K's is k^7 since k^8 has seven K's. We multiply the two and we get 4k^7.

3. Since one of the numbers of the three given here does not include the variable n, there will not be any N's in the GCF of the three, so we don't have to worry about that. Now, we just find the GCF of 18, -24, and -21. The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18, the factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24, and lastly, the factors of 21 are 1, 3, 7, and 21. From these, 3 is the biggest common divisor, therefore the GCF is 3.

4. Between the two X's, X^1 is the biggest amount of X's this GCF has, so the final GCF will be some constant multiplies with X. Since we are dealing with bigger numbers on this problem, we should use prime factorization. The prime factorization of 90 is 2 x 3 x 3 x 5, and the prime factorization of 120 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5. From these expressions, we take the biggest amount of each common factor as we can. Since these expressions both have 2, we take the smaller amount of 2's which is one two. Then we get one three from both expressions, and one five as well. 2 times 3 times 5 equals 30, therefore, we get -30x, and not 30x, because both of these numbers are negatives.

5. All of these numbers do not have an x, so there won't be an x in our GCF. Another method of quickly finding the GCF of numbers is to look at the smallest number's factors first to see what factors it shares with the other numbers. The factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. 42 and 30 do not have the factor 12, so we can go down the list and see if 42 and 30 share the factor 6, which they do since 6 times 7 is 42 and 6 times 5 is 30. Since all of these numbers share the negative sign, the GCF of these three numbers is -6.

write the slope-intercept form of the line with a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of -4. include your work in your final answer.
IgorLugansk [536]
I cant really show you how to graph this but i can try to explain it. you would make a 4 quadrant graph and do rise over run.
1)start by making the graph
2) on the line of the graph marked Y is where you would put -4
3) From -4, you would go up (rise) by 2 and go over to the right 1 where you end is the slop

The method of tree ring dating gave the following years A.D. for an archaeological excavation site. Assume that the population o
blondinia [14]

The value of mean, standard deviation and interval from the method of tree ring dating is 1273 AD, 37 years, [1250,1296].

According to the statement

we have to find that the standard deviation, mean and the intervals from the given data.

So, According to the given data from the method of tree ring dating

The value of mean is

x-bar = (1271 + 1208 + 1229 + 1299 + 1268 + 1316 + 1275 + 1317 + 1275) / 9 = x-bar = 1273 AD

And now we find standard deviation :

s = √∑(xi - x-bar) / (N - 1)

∑(xi - x-bar)^2 = (1271 - 1273)2 + (1208 - 1273)2 + (1229 - 1273)2 + ... + (1275 - 1273)2

∑(xi - x-bar)^2 = (-2)2 + (-65)2 + (-44)2 + ... + (2)2

∑(xi - x-bar)^2 = 4 + 4225 + 1936 + 676 + 25 + 1849 + 4 1936 + 4

∑(xi - x-bar)^2 = 10,659

Now,

s^2 = 10659/8 = 1332

s = 37 years

So, standard deviation is 37 years.

We need the t-distribution table since the standard deviation is unknown.  Therefore, our degrees of freedom is 9 - 1 = 8 and the critical value is 1.860.  Set up the confidence interval for the mean:

[x-bar ± t*(s/√n)] = [1273 ± 1.860*(37/√9)]

[x-bar ± t*(s/√n)] = [1250,1296]

So, The value of mean, standard deviation and interval from the method of tree ring dating is 1273 AD, 37 years, [1250,1296].
