Let x be the first odd number.
Second odd number will be x+2
Proof:
If 3 (was) the first odd number, 3+2 would be the next which is 5.
So,
(x) (x+2) = 99
xsquare + 2x = 99
xsquare +2x - 99 = 0
xsquare +11x - 9x -99 = 0
x(x +11) -9(x + 11) = 0
(x+11) (x-9) = 0
So the two odd numbers were 9 and 11
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The smallest side of a triangle is formed by the smallest angle in the triangle.
To find the side opposite (formed by) the 20 degree angle, we can use the Law of Cosines. The Law of Cosines states that for any triangle,
, where
,
, and
are the three sides of the triangle and
is the angle opposite to
.
Let
be the side opposite to the 20 degree angle.
Assign variables:
Substituting these variables, we get:

Therefore, the shortest side of this triangle is 3.5.
Answer:
((3+5)/2,(6+11)/2)=(4,8.5)
Answer:
The probability that the center will have enough employees to handle this call volume is 0.2764
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.
Here the total mean expected number of outcomes=u = 4000
The favorable expected outcomes are = x= 22* 178= 3916
The standard deviation= σ= 5
The random variable X =178 has normal distribution with mean 4000/22 and standard deviation 5
So z= x-u/σ
Z= (3916-4000)/22/5
z= -0.764
From the table of areas under normal curve
P ( x= 3916)= P( -0.764 ≤ Z≤ 0)
P ( x= 3916)= 0.2764
The probability that the center will have enough employees to handle this call volume is 0.2764
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, a very easy way is to count all the rectangles and then count the squares that are shaded and have balloons.
You'll get 7 squares that are shaded and have balloons and 16 rectangles in total.
So the fraction will be 
Another simple way is to just multiply
and
