Answer:

x = 16.5 as the median in this term is 2x-8

and 2x-8 = 25

25+8=2x

33=2x

x= $\frac{33}{2}$

= 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

this answer says 12 which is false

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x-8+2x+10)/2 = 25

(4x+2) = 2×25

4x+2 = 50

4x = 50-2

4x = 48

x = 48/4

x = 12

The least common multiple of two whole numbers is 12. The ratio of the

mihalych1998 [28]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

6 : 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the ratio values is 3×2 = 6. This means the two numbers will have a GCF of 12/6 = 2. So, the two numbers are ...

3×2 : 2×2 = 6 : 4

_____

I think of GCF and LCM problems in terms of a "diagram" that looks like this:

(a [ b ) c ]

That is, the two numbers can be written in a form such that one is (a·b), the other is [b·c], their greatest common factor is b, and their least common multiple is a·b·c.

The ratio of the two numbers would be a : c. The product ac differs from the LCM by a factor of b, the GCF. Of course, b = abc/(ac), which is how we got the above answer.

Kelly uses cruise control to drive at a constant speed. She travels first 192 miles in 3 hours. At the rate, how long will it ta

ioda

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

rate = d / t

rate = 192 / 3

rate = 64 miles / hour

Now you want to know how long it can take to get 448 miles

d = r * t

t = d / r

t = 448/64

t = 7 hours.

You could actually do it using proportions.

192/3 = 448/x Cross multiply

192*x = 448*3

192*x = 1344 Divide by 192

x = 1344/192

x = 7

Do this the way you feel is the best way.

The lengths of pregnancies are normally distributed with a mean of days and a standard deviation of days. a. Find the probabilit

Alik [6]

Answer:

a) The probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer is given by 1 subtracted by the p-value of $Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$ , in which $\mu$ is the mean and $\sigma$ is the standard deviation.

b) We have to find X when Z has a p-value of $\frac{a}{100}$ , and X is given by: $X = \mu - Z\sigma$ , in which $\mu$ is the mean and $\sigma$ is the standard deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

Mean $\mu$ , standard deviation $\sigma$

a. Find the probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer.

The probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer is given by 1 subtracted by the p-value of $Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$ , in which $\mu$ is the mean and $\sigma$ is the standard deviation.

b. If the length of pregnancy is in the lowest a%, then the baby is premature. Find the length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature.

We have to find X when Z has a p-value of $\frac{a}{100}$ , and X is given by: $X = \mu - Z\sigma$ , in which $\mu$ is the mean and $\sigma$ is the standard deviation.

A circle graph titled Bachelor's Degrees Earned in the United States from 2009 to 2010. 22 percent is business, 10 percent is so

Helga [31]

Answer:

a) 60 graduates

b) Business and social science.

Step-by-step explanation:

In United States, from 2009 to 2010 the Bachelor's Degrees graduates are made up of 22% for business, 10% for social science, 8% is health related, 6% is education and 54% is others. Given that a sample of 1000 college graduates where used,

a) Number of graduates with education degree is equal to 6% of the total college graduates. Therefore:

Number of graduates with education degree = 6% × 1000 = 0.06 × 1000 = 60 graduates

b) Number of graduates with business degree = 22% × 1000 = 0.22 × 1000 = 220 graduates

Number of graduates with social science degree = 10% × 1000 = 0.1 × 1000 = 100 graduates

Number of graduates with health related degree = 8% × 1000 = 0.08 × 1000 = 80 graduates

Number of graduates with other degree = 54% × 1000 = 0.54 × 1000 = 540 graduates

Since Many graduates earn degrees in fields that result in high-paying jobs, the two fields most likely pay more than the others are that of business and social science.
