Answer:

1:2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say there are x males and y females in the class.

The sum of all male weights will be 72x, and the sum of all female weights will be 60y.

If we get a class mean weight, we have:

(72x + 60y) / (x+y) = 68

72x + 60y = 68x + 68y

4x = 8y

y / x = 4/8 = 1/2

So the ratio of females to males is the class is 1:2

Answer:

(7, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because x does not equal 7 as well, brackets won't be used here.

Because x can be any number greater than 7, this means the domain includes positive ∞.

Eleven percent of the pens made by Apex are defective.
sergiy2304 [10]
Let A be the event 'made by Apex and defective':
P(A) = 0.67 x 0.11 = 0.0737
Let B be the event 'made by B-ink and defective':
P(B) = 0.33 x 0.06 = 0.0198
Let C be the event 'made by Apex or B-ink and defective':
P(C) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.0737 + 0.0198 = 0.0935
P(defective and made by Apex) = 0.0737/0.0935 = 0.788
The answer is 0.788 or 78.8%.

A) If the 5th term of an A.P. is double the 7th term, show that the sum of the 17 terms zero.​
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an AP is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₅ is double a₇ , then

a₁ + 4d = 2(a₁ + 6d) , that is

a₁ + 4d = 2a₁ + 12d ( subtract a₁ from both sides )

4d = a₁ + 12d ( subtract 12d from both sides )

- 8d = a₁

The sum of n terms of an AP is

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2} [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ] , substitute values

S_{17} = \frac{17}{2} ( 2(- 8d) + 16d)

     = 8.5(- 16d + 16d)

     = 8.5 × 0

     = 0
