Hello,

An integer is a rational number (ex 5=5/1=10/2...)
The sum of 2 rationals is a rational.
Substract a rational is adding its opposite.
The difference of 2 rationals is always a rational (substraction is a intern law)

Two positive, consecutive, odd integers have a product of 143.
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

<em>The answer is 13</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Two positive and consecutive old numbers are x and x - 2.

=> x(x - 2) = 143

=> x^2 - 2x - 143 = 0

=> x^2 + 11x - 13x - 143 = 0

=> x(x + 11) - 13(x + 11) = 0

=> (x + 11)(x - 13) = 0

=>  x = -11 (invalid)

or x = 13 (valid), the remaining number is 13 - 2 = 11

=> The two numbers are 11 and 13, and the greater number is 13.

Hope this helps!

:)

Vivi is a drummer for a band. She burns 756 calories while drumming for 3hours. She burns the same number of calories per hour.
lions [1.4K]

This question uses the concept of the division.

Vivi, the band drummer, burns 765 calories in 3 hours. And she burns these calories at the same rate. Which means she burns the same amount of calories per hour.

Thus, the set up equation for this question will be:

Energy burnt in 3 hours=756 calories

Therefore, Energy burnt in 1 hour = \frac{756}{3} =252 Calories.

Thus, the required answer is that Vivi burns 252 Calories of energy per hour while drumming.

The weight of a small Starbucks coffee is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 330 grams and a standard deviati
just olya [345]

Answer:

Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 330, \sigma = 12

a. Highest 20 percent

At least X

100-20 = 80

So X is the 80th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.842.

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

0.842 = \frac{X - 330}{12}

X - 330 = 12*0.842

X = 340.1

Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.
