Answer:

by taking Hcf of 96 and 72 we get 4 so each team have 4

'24' teams can be made with each team having 4 girls and 3 boys.

Given that,

No. of girls = 96

No. of boys = 72

Since the number of teams is not given, we will find by finding out the GCF(Greatest Common factor) of 96 and 72.

96 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3

72 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3

GCF = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 = 24

Thus, a maximum of 24 teams can be formed. The number of girls and boys in each of these teams would be:

No. of girls in each team = Total girls/no. of teams

= 96/24

= 4 girls

No. of boys in each team = Total boys/no. of teams

= 72/24

= 3 boys

Thus, each team will have 4 girls and 3 boys.

Prove that 2n^3 + 3n^2 + n is divisible by 6 for every integer n > 1 by mathematical induction. (7 marks)
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The answer is True

Step-by-step explanation:

A <em>mathematical induction</em> consists in only 2 steps:  

<u>First step</u>: Show the proposition is true for the first one valid integer number.

<u>Second step</u>: Show that if any one is true then the next one is true  

Finally, if first step and second step are true, then the complete proposition is true.

So, given 2*n^3+3*n^2+n

First step: using and replacing n=2 (the first valid integer number >1)

2*(2)^3 +3*(2)^2+2=30

\frac{30}{6} =5

As the result is an integer number, so the first step is true.

Second step: using any next number, n+1, let it replace

2*(n+1)^3+3*(n+1)^2+(n+1)\\2*(n^3+3*n^2+3*n+1)+3*(n^2+2*n+1)^2+(n+1)\\2*n^3+6*n^2+6*n+2+3*n^2+6*n+3+n+1\\(2*n^3+3*n^2+n)+(6*n^2+12*n+6)

As the First step is true, we know that

2*n^3+3*n^2+n=6*k,

So let it replace in the previous expression

6*k+6*(n^2+2*n+1)\\6*[k+(n^2+2*n+1)]

Finally

\frac{6*[k+(n^2+2*n+1)]}{6} =k+(n^2+2*n+1)

where the last expression is an integer number

So the second step is true, and the complete proposition is True

What is the median of this set of data: 593, 588, 540, 434, 420, 398, 390, 375
Aleks04 [339]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u><em>426</em></u>

<u />

<u>Explanation:</u>

To find the median number in a set of data start by reordering the data from least to greatest.

<em>original data set:</em>

<em>593, 588, 540, 434, 420, 398, 390, 375</em>

<em />

<em>data set from least to greatest:</em>

<em>375, 390, 398, 420, 434, 540, 588, 593</em>

<em />

Next, you would usually just have to find the middle number in the data set and that would be your median. However, this data set has no one number that is directly in the middle. So, we will add both middle numbers together and then divide our answer by two.

<em>375, 390, 398, </em><em>420, 434</em><em>, 540, 588, 593</em>

<em />

<em>420 + 434 = 854</em>

<em />

<em>854 ÷ 2 = 426</em>

<em />

Therefore, the median of the given data set is <em><u>426.</u></em>
