Answer:

947

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the bigger number be y and the smaller number be x

The difference between the two numbers is written as:

y - x

But from the question we were told that the difference between the two numbers is 685. Therefore,

y - x = 685

Also, from the question, we were told that the smaller number (x) is 262. Therefore,

y - x = 685 becomes:

y - 262 = 685

Collect like terms

y = 685 + 262

y = 947

Therefore, the other number is 947

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let </em><em>the </em><em>two </em><em>numbers </em><em>be </em><em>x </em><em>and </em><em>y </em>

<em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>6</em><em>8</em><em>5</em>

<em>Let </em><em>the </em><em>smaller </em><em>number </em><em>be </em><em>y </em>

<em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>6</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>6</em><em>8</em><em>5</em>

<em>x </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>6</em><em>8</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>6</em><em>2</em>

<em>Therefore </em><em>x </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>9</em><em>4</em><em>7</em>

Given the diagram below, what is the length of segment EF
bekas [8.4K]
Let x = length of segment EF.

Assume that
(a) line segments AD,  EF, and BC are parallel, and
(b) the vertical distance between AD and EF is equal to the vertical distance between EF and BC.

Then from similarity between geometric shapes, we can write
\frac{2.2}{x} = \frac{x}{4.8}
x^{2} =(2.2)(4.8)=10.56
x=3.2   (nearest tenth)

Answer: B. 3.2

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: B. H_0:p_1=p_2

H_a:p_1>p_2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p_1 be the proportion of all U.S. adults that smoked in 1995. Let p_2 denote the proportion of all U.S. adults that smoked in 2000.

Objective for the study : Whether the proportion of U.S. adults that smoke declined during the 5-year period between the samples.

i.e. p_1>p_2

Alternative hypothesis(H_a) is the statement containing population  parameter that shows there is significant difference between the groups being tested.

⇒ H_a:p_1>p_2

Null hypothesis(H_0) is the statement containing population parameter that shows there is no significant difference between the groups being tested.

⇒ H_0:p_1=p_2

Hence, The hypotheses to test in this problem are

H_0:p_1=p_2

H_a:p_1>p_2

Hence, the correct answer is B. H_0:p_1=p_2

H_a:p_1>p_2
