Answer:

The value is  \sigma  = 9.976

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mean is \mu = 61.6

Given that 20% of the values are greater than 70, the z-score to  the right of the curve  corresponding to 20% (0.2) of the values is

     z-score = 0.842  

Generally this z-score is mathematically represented as

       z-score  = \frac{x - \mu }{\sigma }

Here  x = 70  

So

     0.842 = \frac{70 - 61.6  }{\sigma }

=>   \sigma  = 9.976

Among 18 students in a room, 7 study mathematics, 10 study science, and 10 study computer programming. Also, 3 study mathematics
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

2 students study none of the subjects.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the attached venn diagram. First, we place that 1 student studies the three subjects. Then, we notice that 3 students study math and science, then 2 students study math and science only, since we have 1 that studies the three subjects. In the same fashion, we have that 3 students study Math and computer programming only (since they are 4 in total). Note that since 7 students study math, and we already have 6 students in our count in the math subject this implies that 1 student studies only math (the total number of students inside the math circle must add to 7).

We also have that 4 students study science and computer programming only. Which implies that we must have 3 students that study science only (10 students that study science in total) and 2 students study computer programming (for a total of 10 students). The total number of students that study none is the total number of students (18) minus the amount of students that is inside the circles (16) which is 2.

Prime numbers basically numbers that dont have any numbers that will be multiplied to get to it. So, it would be:
 23

All the other numbers in between can be divided by something and not become a decimal. Other than 23, it can be divided by anything without becoming a decimal.
